內容簡介

"Writing has been of Great Use to me in the Course of my Life," Benjamin Franklin said in his famous Autobiography. With characteristically calculated understatement, he attributed his enormous and varied successes to "my having learnt a little to scribble."
This collection of Franklin's works begins with letters sent from London (1757-1775) describing the events and diplomacy preceding the Revolutionary War. The volume also contains political satires, bagatelles, pamphlets, and letters written in Paris (1776-1785), where he represented the revolutionary United States at the court of Louis XVI, as well as his speeches given in the Constitutional Convention and other works written in Philadelphia (1785-1790), including his last published article, a searing satire against slavery.
Also included are the delightfully shrewd prefaces to Poor Richard's Almanack (1733-1758) and their worldly, pungent maxims that have entered our American culture. Finally, the classic Autobiography, Franklin's last word on his greatest literary creation-his own invented personality-is presented here in a new edition, completely faithful to Franklin's manuscript.
A companion volume includes the complete "Silence Dogood" series, "Busy-Body" essays, and a generous selection of his early writings, including letters to the press, satires, and pamphlets.

　　 正當我一心一意地在改進我的文體的時候，我偶然發現瞭一本英語語法(我想是一本格林烏的語法)，在這本書的後麵有兩篇關於修辭法和邏輯的簡短介紹，關於邏輯的那篇在結束時舉瞭一個用蘇格拉底對話法進行論辯的實例。此後不久我就買瞭一部色諾芬的《蘇格拉底的重要言行錄》。在這本書裏有許多這種對話法的實例。我很喜歡這種方法，就采用它，放棄瞭我那生硬反駁和獨斷式的立論，卻裝成一個謙遜的發問和懷疑的人。

This book has been described as a world-class masterpiece and indeed fascinating like so. Once I open this book, I just can’t put it down. Thus I recommend this book for all of you, my dear friends. This book has been described as a masterpiece, and for good reason. Through this "genealogy" of history, Foucault shows us how modern society has become penal and coercive in nature; and perhaps more importantly, that all us now live in the midst of an abstract, authoritative public "gaze." Discipline and Punish is still relevant for today, even though the Panopticon has vanished. I think this book is brilliant and disturbing. It is not always easy to read, but then, what book worth reading is? Foucault is given to dramatic images, and he does little to mitigate the impact of these images on the reader. Perhaps he is really trying to increase this impact. Since he is attempting to counter the powers of normalization, he may need all of the momentum he can get. 本書旨在論述關於現代靈魂與一種新的審判權力之間相互關係的曆史，論述現行的科學一法律綜閤體的係譜。在這種綜閤體中。懲罰權力獲得瞭自身的基礎、證明和規則。擴大瞭自己的效應，並且用這種綜閤體掩飾自己超常的獨特性。本書所考察的懲罰權力的曆史包括三個階段：中世紀末和舊製度時期作為王權武器的酷刑；18世紀末，包括法國大革命時期人道主義的“再現”式懲罰；19世紀開始的、使用現代規訓技術的監獄和普遍化的監視。書中提到的“古典時期，不是指古希臘羅馬時期的古典古代，而是指近代絕對君主製和法國大革命時期，大體上與西方文學史上所說的古典主義文學時期一緻。本書中這一術語的用法與福柯其他著作中的用法也是一緻的。關於古典時期的懲罰權力，書中概括為“錶象的、戲劇性的、能指的、公開的、集體的方式”。這裏的錶象一詞在書中有的場閤根據上下文譯為“觀念”或“再現”。錶象或再現是福柯用以描述古典時期“權力一知識”綜閤體的一個重要術語。這種觀點是與他在1966年發錶的《詞與物》（英譯版《事物的秩序》）一脈相承的。在《詞與物》中，福柯考察瞭近代西方的“知識型的替嬗。其中，他認為17—18世紀古典時期知識型的特點是，詞並不直接錶示物，而是一種符號，而符號隻是對其他符號的“再現”。詞組成瞭享有特權的符號係統。人們用詞的秩序來再現物的秩序。

　　 我從小就愛好讀書，我一直把我手上的全部零用錢都花在書上。因為我喜愛《天路曆程》，所以我一開始就收集瞭約翰·班揚文集的單獨發行的小冊子。以後我把它們賣瞭，用這筆錢我買瞭柏頓的《曆史文集》。這些是開本很小的由小販們販賣的書籍，價格便宜，全集共有四五十冊，我父親的小圖書館收藏的主要是一些有關神學論辯的書籍，其中大多數我都念瞭，但是既然當時業已決定我不做牧師瞭，正當我的求知欲那樣旺盛的時候，我沒有機會閱讀更適當的書籍，迄今常使我感到遺憾，在那裏有一本普魯泰剋的《英雄傳》，我讀瞭不少，我還認為讀這本書所花的時間是非常值得的。那裏也有笛福的一本名為《論計劃》的書，另一本是馬太博士的書，名為《論行善》。這本書可能在我思想上形成瞭一種對於我以後一生中的某些重大事件都有影響的傾嚮。
