尼采忘了他的傘 -那些你沒聽過的生活、文學、歷史、藝術中的傘: Marion Rankine : umbrellaBrolly 1830 Marion Rankine The Times Literary SupplementThe GuardianOverlandFor Books Sake
作者: 瑪麗恩・蘭金(Marion Rankine) | 譯者: 呂奕欣
雨傘,與數千年人類歷史共生的貼身之物,
卻常被世人所忽略。
而它其實在歷史上擔綱起無數關鍵角色,
更擁有撼動一個時代的力量。
卻常被世人所忽略。
而它其實在歷史上擔綱起無數關鍵角色,
更擁有撼動一個時代的力量。
已存在人類社會長達數千年的雨傘(umbrella)——英國的通俗說法又稱「蓋」(Brolly),起源是為了幫法老王遮陽,那時擁有傘的人象徵著財富與權力。兩千年之後,傘也用來遮雨。但是就像狄更斯小說中的人物,拿傘是因為你太窮了,沒有錢擁有自己的馬車。這時撐傘的人又代表了貧窮。
在歷史上,雨傘遊走於許多政治、經濟、社會、文化領域,它可以彰顯身分地位,也曾是有損聲名的象徵,並隨著時代更迭,一次次被賦予了新的記號:
◎在拿破崙戰役中,戰場上除了軍刀、肩背包,為何會四處散落著雨傘?
◎日本在明治維新前使用的日式和傘,為了展現階級高低,必須藉由傘色等嚴格規定來區別用傘人的身分?
◎維多利亞時代英國女性以陽傘維持白皙膚色,是來自海上殖民擴張年代帝國主義的弦外之音?
◎一把黑傘不離身的英國首相張伯倫,在二戰前夕慕尼黑會議後聲望大跌,帶傘因此成為愚昧笨老頭的象徵?
◎暢銷全球小說《哈利波特》中的魔法傘架竟暗喻著世上存在嚴重的歧視?
雨傘豐富的社會意涵,也備受文學、哲學、時尚、藝術等領域熱愛,它本身暗示情慾,甚至象徵著死亡。傘在人類史上是一道庇蔭、同時也代表了盾牌和反抗,直至今日的社會運動中都可見到它不墜的身影。
文學史上最著名漂流者──魯賓遜的傘
在最遙遠荒島、最費盡千辛萬苦打造,即是文學史上最著名的漂流者──魯賓遜的傘。魯賓遜受困於荒島後開始打造生存所需物品,其中一個就是傘。作家史蒂文生指出魯賓遜此舉是中產階級教養「在逆境中仍想展現文明之心」。小說盛行期間,也流行用「魯賓遜」來代稱傘。
漏水有如不速之客?──撐起「自己的房間」
韓江的《素食者》和米蘭・昆德拉的《生命中不能承受之輕》中意味著傘的漏水有如不速之客,它也是人們想隱藏自己、不與人互動的最佳掩護。
「你會收傘嗎?」──讓貴族來教你
1830年代對時尚業而言是重要的年代,雨傘的需求一飛沖天,充滿品味與設計感的傘行也紛紛開業。傘不僅僅用來擋雨,更是人們凸顯自身品味的絕佳夥伴。「你會收傘嗎?」將傘收得整齊美觀能凸顯出自身人格特質,也可避免被人說三道四,於是二十世紀初就有企業印出了「貴族收傘法說明手冊」。
「我忘了我的傘。」──哲學家尼采的巨大苦惱?
搞丟雨傘和遺忘雨傘,並非當代人所獨有的苦惱。這是尼采在未發表的手稿中所留下的一句相當知名的話。但該怎麼解讀?令後世學者傷透腦筋,唯有西方哲學巨擘德希達像嘲諷又像致敬地「超譯」了尼采的真義。因此讓我們翻開這本書,幫尼采想起他的傘
武器與暴力──是凶器還是盾牌?
早年雨傘會被當成劍來用,甚至還發生凶殺案。有人稱雨傘是雌雄同體,是武器也是防禦,甚至能擋子彈!傘是一種控制周遭環境的方式,是對環境的干預,撐起一把傘,就像歷史上反抗權力的雨傘運動,它彷彿在對人們訴說:不,我其實不想撐傘。

Reliable Clarity and a Solid Seal: A Great Value for Daily Laps
Color: Aqua
The Aegend Swim Goggles are a popular choice for recreational and fitness swimmers because they solve the two biggest complaints people have with goggles: leaking and discomfort. They manage to feel professional without the intimidating "race-only" fit of elite models.
Why they are a winner in the pool:
- Truly Leak-Proof Seal: They live up to the "no leaking" promise. The flexible silicone gaskets are soft and wide, creating a reliable suction that keeps water out without having to overtighten the strap to an uncomfortable degree.
- Panoramic Clarity: The lenses offer a wide field of vision with excellent "Full Protection" against UV rays. The anti-fog coating performs well initially, providing a clear, HD view of the lane lines and other swimmers around you.
- Comfortable Bridge Design: Unlike old-school goggles that pinch the bridge of the nose, these feature an ergonomic, flexible nose piece. It adapts to different face shapes easily, making them a great fit for both adults and youth.
- Easy-Adjust Strap: The quick-release clasp at the back is a major convenience. You can put them on and take them off without snagging your hair (especially helpful if you're using them with that Aegend swim cap), and adjusting the tension is a simple one-handed task.
They are a dependable, high-comfort pair of goggles that let you focus on your stroke instead of constantly clearing out water.

Mostly good goggles, discomfort on nose-bridge - not for big noses!
Color: Black (Black-color Lens)
It's difficult to find good quality goggles that I actually like, but these get pretty close. For context I swim every Monday before work as a workout, so there's a few aspects I look for/are important for me and these tick most of the boxes.
1) Comfort - Probably the most important factor. These are very comfortable around the eyes, the rubber is soft and they don't leave rings. My old goggles always did and walking into work with "raccoon eyes" turns heads. These don't leave rings and are still watertight. Only complaint is the plastic over the nose-bridge is angled inward, towards your nose, instead of outward away from your nose/following the line of your nose away from your face. And it's thick, so it digs into my nose. It's not a game-killer but I feel it and it's uncomfortable. It will be the thing that pushes me to try a different pair next time. If you have a "big" nose or one that curves outward from the top, I don't recommend these goggles. They will be uncomfortable for you.
2) Clarity - These are very clear and don't distort your vision underwater. They don't fog up (at least for now) and provide a wide range of vision. Good work.
3) Fitting - The strap is easy and intuitive to adjust but leaves a bit to be desired as it's a single strap around the back of your head. I like the security of 2 straps/a split strap that straddles the back of your head holding the goggles firm in place and preventing up/down movement. The good news is I haven't had issues with this yet, so it could just be a change in what I'm used to that makes no functional difference, but I'd be a little concerned to dive off a starting block as I'd worry they might release. Again, I HAVE NOT done this and I haven't had any issues, it is just a feeling. The button quick-release is a nice effortless way to pop them off when I finish and I'm tired!
4) Other - The case is a nice touch! I hate my goggles getting scratched and this helps prevent that. Nice to have.
Overall - They are comfortable around the eyes, don't leave rings, are clear & don't fog up, and functionally have been great with the quick-release & included case. They may be uncomfortable on "big" or "protruding" noses due to nose-bridge design & thickness.
4 stars because they dig into my nose a bit...and I never thought I had a funny nose but maybe I do!

Great customer support, but blurry underwater for me.
Color: Blue Hawaii
I'm a casual lap swimmer who swims 30 minutes every day. Needed some decent goggles and saw the Aegend brand was a highly rated bestseller. I first ordered the mirrored version of this lens which is essentially identical to this clear version. Was really excited to hit the pool when I received the goggles. Love the strap system on these Aegends which adjust on the back and has a quick release button...my other goggles have a little short strap that adjusts at the temple and it drives me crazy. Goggles are very comfortable and never fogged up during my swim. Nice field of view.
What's the issue then? These goggles are perfectly fine and clear above water, but blurry underwater. The blurriness is like a prism effect. My local YMCA has small tiles and with these goggles the tile lines were duplicated several times over. The effect isn't bad and perhaps some may be able to live with it, but it was annoying to me. Contacted Aegend customer service and they asked if I was myopic (no) and offered to send a replacement free of charge including a choice of couple different models. I chose instead to return the mirrored version and rebuy this clear one thinking perhaps the mirrored tint had something to do with it. Second pair of goggles arrived and same thing--clear above water and blurry underwater. Aegend says not everybody's eyeballs are built the same and again offered to replace the goggle free of charge including to their flat lens which shouldn't have the blurry prism effect. I declined since I know the strap design on their flat lens goggle would drive me crazy.
So in summary--these goggles are great and customer support is first rate. But I cannot give the goggles 5 stars since they didn't work for my eye profile and caused everything underwater to be blurry. Doesn't seem like the majority of people buying these goggles have the same issue though so I wouldn't hesitate buying them to see if they work for you.
UPDATE 2/14/17. I'm revising my review to 5-stars. Aegend once again contacted me and tried to make things right. They had another swim goggles with the clasp on the back like the one for this product but with a flat lens (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MTXI8SV). These new goggle work great and are clear underwater. Can't say enough about a company that stands by their products like Aegend.

Excellent Goggles — Comfortable, Secure, and No Leaks
Color: Aqua
These goggles are excellent quality and were very easy to adjust. They have good suction and fit nice and tight without being uncomfortable and stayed secure the entire time I was swimming. Not much for style, but these do look pretty cool.
I wore them for about an hour with no issues at all—they remained comfortable and didn’t leak, which is a huge plus. The seal held up well without leaving painful pressure marks.
The included case is also a great bonus and makes storage and travel easy. Overall, a very solid pair of goggles that perform exactly as expected. Definitely recommend.
