内容简介
《西方文明史》既紧紧把握了政治发展的线索,同时又兼顾了经济、文化等诸多领域,并运用“新史学”的方法,将底层大众的日常社会生活也囊括其中,力求多层次、多角度地揭示西方文明起源、发展、演进、更新的漫长历程和整体图景。在叙述和阐释西方文明历史的过程中,作者将大多数精力“一直聚焦在拓展出一种对西方文明的可靠的和易读的叙述上”,而并非要将之写成“一部百科全书”。因此,凡是与这一学术主旨不相关的庞杂内容一概不予叙述,而那些被长期忽略了的“普通男女的历史”则被纳入到叙事之中。此外,作者还从文明的“亲缘”关系出发,将斯拉夫文明作为西方文明的组成部分而不是边缘地带来加以叙述。正是基于这样的新理念,该书囊括了历史地理、政治制度、经济样式、地区冲突与战争、宗教、思想观念、文化艺术、社会生活等诸多的内容,让读者对西方文明史的整体轮廓与丰厚积淀有了一个比较清晰的认识。

词汇与注释
精彩书摘
The West is an idea.It is not visible from space.An astro-naut viewing the blue——and·-white terrestrial sphere can make out the forms of Africa,bounded by the Atlantic,the Indian Ocean,the Red Sea,and the Mediterranean.Australia,the Americas,and even Antarctica are distinct patches of blue-green in the darker waters that surround them.But nothing comparable separates Asia from Europe,East from West.Viewed from 100 miles up,the West itself is invisible.Although astronauts can see the great Eurasian landmass curving around the Northern Hemisphere,the Ural Mountainsmthe theoretical boundary between East and West——appear faint from space.Certainly they are less impressive than the towering Himalayas,the Alps,or even the Caucasus.People,not geology,determined that the Urals should be the arbitrary boundary between Europe and Asia. Even this determination took centuries.Originally,Europe was a name that referred only to central Greece.Gradually,Greeks extended it to include the whole Greek mainland and then the landmass to the north.Later,Roman explorers and soldiers carried Europe north and west to its modern bound-aries.Asia too grew with time.Initially,Asia was only that small portion of what is today Turkey inland from the Aegean Sea.Gradually,as Greek explorers came to know of lands far-ther east,north,and south,they expanded their understand。ing of Asia to include everything east of the Don River to the north and ofthe Red Sea to the south. Western civilization is as much an idea as the West itsel Under the right conditions,astronauts can see the Great Wall of China snaking its way from the edge of the Himalayas to the Yellow Sea.No comparable physical legacy ofthe West is so mas-sire that its details can be discerned from space.Nor are Western achievements rooted forever in one corner of the world.Ⅵ1at we call Western civilization belongs to no particular place.Its lo.cation has changed since the origins of civilization,that is,the cultural and social traditions characteristic of the civitas,or city.Western”cities appeared first outside the”West),in the Tigris and Euphrates river basins in present-day Iraq and Iran,a region山at we today call the Middle East.These areas have never losttheir urban traditions,but in time,other cities in North Africa,Greece,and Italy adapted and expanded this heritage. Until the sixteenth century c…E the western end of the Eurasian landmass was the crucible in which disparate cul.tural and intellectual traditions of the Near East.the Mediterranean,and northern and western Europe were smelted into a new and powerful alloy.Then“the West”ex-panded by establishing colonies overseas and by giving rise tothe“settler societies”of the Americas,Australia and NewZealand,and South Africa.Western technology for harnessing nature,Westerh formsof economic and political organization,Western styles of artand music are for good or ill-一dominant influences inworld civilization.Japan is a leading power in the Western tra.ditions of capitalist commerce and technology.China,themost populous country in the world,adheres to Marxist so.cialist principles——a European political tradition.Millions ofpeople in Africa,Asia,and the Americas follow the religions ofIslam and Christianity,both of which developed fromJudaism in the cradle ofWestern civilization.
前言/序言
正如德国人的人文著述中充满日尔曼民族的自豪感和优越感那样,西方历史学家在撰写他们自己的文明史时,往往会过度褒扬西方人的民族性、制度和文化。在他们的笔下,西方文明通常被看做人类文明发展的主线和轴心,东方文明则自然成为“化外”或“非主流”。M.A.凯什岚斯基(M。A.Kishlallsky)等人的《西方文明史》似乎突破了这一思想束缚和文化囹固,采用一种客观的、联系的和发展的观点来追溯西方文明的历史足迹。这在林林总总的西方文明史的著作当中,不得不说是难能可贵的了。

小学是班主任讲过:某中学的一位数学教师每天给他的一个学生出三道数学题,作为课外作业,让他回家后去做。这个学生每天都能认真完成。有一天,这个学生回家后,发现老师今天给他出了四道题,而且最后一道似乎有些难度。他想,以前每天的三道题,都顺利地完成了,从未出现过任何差错,老师早该给我增加点分量了。于是,他满怀自信地投入到解题的思考中,天亮时分,他终于把最后一道难题也解答出来了,当他把这四道已解的题一并交给老师时,老师看完后惊呆了。原来最后那道题竟是一道在数学界流传百年而无人能解的难题。老师把它抄在纸上,也只是出于好奇。结果,不经意把它与另外三道题混在一起了。这位高三的学生却在不明实情的前提下,把它攻克了。

读书已经成为我的一种习惯,小学时最爱做的事情,就是看各种各样的闲书,从爸爸妈妈给订阅的儿童杂志,到一些文学名著,我都照单全收。即使是上中学以后,也是依然爱读书,也要在繁忙间隙让自己的心灵得到些许的休憩。拿起一本喜爱的书籍,就好像随手推开一扇窗户,欣赏窗外美丽的风景。这风景或粗犷豪放,或细腻委婉,或雄伟磅礴,或感人肺腑,令我浑然忘却了学习中的烦恼与不快,仿佛排徊在青山绿水之间,呼吸着新鲜的空气,挥着思想的翅膀,感受着生命的美好。

细细品读后,发现这本书整体感觉还是很不错的,也使自己获益匪浅!现在多数的家庭条件好了,在优越的环境中长大的我们,根本没有了吃苦的意志。殊不知,一个人要有所成就,能够担当大任,必须首先经受磨难,接受各种考验,具备不屈不挠的精神,才能有所成就。爱迪生那句名言“天才是百分之一的灵感加百分之九十九的汗水”这说明了一个道理:一个人只有经受得住苦难的磨练,他才能取得成功。对于困难,苦难,意志薄弱的人调头就跑,然而意志坚强的人却勇往直前,成功自然属于后者。人生在世,谁都难免会遇到崎岖坎坷,有些人会束手就擒,有些人则会勇敢拼搏。拿出一种精神,勇往向前,我们就会看到阳光。
