评分 评分书是常温常新的。可惜,现在的书籍太多,而可重温的又太少,太多的书品非但不是精神食粮,而且还有毒粮的事实,因而时常的结局是“尾大不掉”,读书就变成了熊瞎子掰玉米,读时昏天黑地,卷毕头昏脑胀,一路读,一路丢。 前段时间,向一位朋友推荐了黄仁宇写的《万...
评分这是一部奇书。 没想过历史可以这样写。习惯了编年体的我们认为历史只有那么一种固定写法,突然面对这样以点带面,用某一年事件点破朝代命运的写法时,开始竟然会不习惯。粗线条描述历史并不难,能从小事着手讲述历史并引申出高人一等的论点则属难得。 老实说,读着《万历十五...

1587, a Year of No Significance: The Ming Dynasty in Decline (Chinese: 萬曆十五年; pinyin: Wanli Shiwunian) is Chinese historian Ray Huang's most famous work. First published by Yale University Press in 1981,[1] it examines how a number of seemingly insignificant events[which?] in 1587 might have caused the downfall of the Ming dynasty. The Chinese title, meaning "the fifteenth year of the Wanli era", is how the year 1587 was expressed in the Chinese calendar: the era name of the reigning Chinese emperor at the time, followed by which year of his reign it was. Major figures discussed in the book besides the emperor are Grand Secretaries Zhang Juzheng and Shen Shixing, official Hai Rui, general Qi Jiguang and philosopher Li Zhi. Although Huang had completed the manuscript by 1976, no publisher would accept it at first, as it was not serious enough for an academic work, but was too serious for popular non-fiction. The work has been translated into a number of different languages: Chinese, Japanese, German and French.
Chinese history: Ming dynasty.
评分从几个关键人物入手,巧妙而不着痕迹地涵盖了那个时代以及它在我们的历史洪流中所揭示的那些规律性的东西。a sad conclusion in the end and including now。最大的感慨还是莫过于知道了历史可以被这样描述。
评分万历十五年,这个貌似无足轻重的年份,标志了明王朝能够触及的上限,不管皇帝是励精图治还是不理朝政,不管首辅是锐意进取还是循规蹈矩,不管将军是足智多谋还是平庸无能,不管文官是清正廉明还是贪污腐败,不管哲人是激进极端还是保守中庸,最终一切都徒劳无功。
评分a great book
评分reacting to the past 必读书目……
