翁贝托·艾柯 / Umberto Eco
翁贝托·艾柯 / Umberto Eco is the author of [[TheNameOfTheRose|《玫瑰的名字》 / The Name of the Rose]], discussed in 53.玫瑰的名字（上）：真与假，正与邪，诠释与过度诠释. The [[MihuanChishu|蜜獾吃书]] episode presents him as more than a novelist: he is described as an aesthetician, philosopher, medieval scholar, media figure, public intellectual, and thinker of signs.
The source’s key claim about Eco is formal. [[TheNameOfTheRose|《玫瑰的名字》]] is not treated as an academic essay hidden inside a plot; the detective frame, abbey setting, forbidden library, debates over laughter, and unstable clues become the way the novel thinks. That makes Eco central to Semiotic Detective Fiction, Interpretation And Overinterpretation, and Classic Reading Complexity in the wiki.
54.玫瑰的名字（下）：真与假，正与邪，诠释与过度诠释 sharpens that formal claim by showing how Eco lets the detective solution undercut detective certainty. The mystery resolves around [[AristotlePoeticsBookTwo|亚里士多德《诗学》第二卷]], poison, and library power, but the attractive [[BookOfRevelation|Revelation]] pattern is exposed as partly coincidence and manipulation. Eco therefore uses plot closure to teach Rational Humility and to warn against Conspiracy Theory Pattern Seeking.
