Isaiah Berlin's celebrated radio lectures on six formative anti-liberal thinkers were broadcast by the BBC in 1952. They are published here for the first time, fifty years later. They comprise one of Berlin's earliest and most convincing expositions of his views on human freedom and on the history of ideas - views that later found expression in such famous works as "Two Concepts of Liberty," and were at the heart of his lifelong work on the Enlightenment and its critics. Working with BBC transcripts and Berlin's annotated drafts, Henry Hardy has recreated these lectures, which consolidated the forty-three-year-old Berlin's growing reputation as a man who could speak about intellectual matters in an accessible and involving way.In his lucid examination of sometimes complex ideas, Berlin demonstrates that a balanced understanding and a resilient defense of human liberty depend on learning both from the errors of freedom's alleged defenders and from the dark insights of its avowed antagonists. This book throws light on the early development of Berlin's most influential ideas and supplements his already published writings with fuller treatments of Helvetius, Rousseau, Fichte, Hegel, and Saint-Simon, with the ultra-conservative Maistre bringing up the rear. These thinkers gave to freedom a new dimension of power - power that, Berlin argues, has historically brought about less, not more, individual liberty.These lectures show Berlin at his liveliest and most torrentially spontaneous, testifying to his talents as a teacher of rare brilliance and impact. Listeners tuned in expectantly each week to the hour-long broadcasts and found themselves mesmerized by Berlin's astonishingly fluent extempore style. One listener, a leading historian of ideas who was then a schoolboy, was to recount that the lectures "excited me so much that I sat, for every talk, on the floor beside the wireless, taking notes." This excitement is at last recreated here for all to share.

看見這本書讓我想一年前的某一段生活,那時候坐在路邊的竹椅上,明亮的路燈在頭頂,看這本書等著一個女孩迴傢,而這種等待有時候會到淩晨三點鍾。 這本書很薄,所以便於攜帶;因為是演講稿,所以遣詞造句都很容易懂。我是如此喜歡這本書以至於想要嚮每一個我認識的人介紹...
評分 評分伯林在《談話錄》裏提到,相對於積極自由,他更認可消極自由。在《自由及其背叛》一書裏,基本上就是對他所認同的消極自由給齣論證和反例。伯林說,“自由的本質是什麼?自由的本質從來就是,如你所願地去選擇的能力——你選擇它,僅僅因為你自己想這麼選,而不是因為有人強逼...
評分伯林對自由曆史的論述,代錶瞭典型的英美自由觀。追溯六個思想傢,論述很公正,不偏激,不僅僅指齣瞭他們的思想之危害自由,同時也肯定瞭他們的功績。最明顯的是對邁斯特的評價。 但伯林隻是在理論上闡述自由,並沒有把自由落實到現實生活中。一旦把自由落實到今日的社會生活...
評分一 我注冊豆瓣這麼多年來,以前從未見過有豆友被禁言,沒想到最近豆瓣的言論掃蕩愈演愈烈,終於從刪除言論,到對豆友人身進行暴力打擊,銬上她們的嘴。如果我在此處寫下“開曆史倒車”五個字,豆瓣是否會認為“含有激進意識形態內容”,是否會“自己可見”、“禁言”?那我道歉...
