The "Roots of Romanticism" at last makes available in printed form Isaiah Berlin's most celebrated lecture series, the Mellon lectures, delivered in Washington in 1965, recorded by the BBC, and broadcast several times. A published version has been keenly awaited ever since the lectures were given, and Berlin had always hoped to complete a book based on them. But despite extensive further work this hope was not fulfilled, and the present volume is an edited transcript of his spoken words. For Berlin, the Romantics set in motion a vast, unparalleled revolution in humanity's view of itself. They destroyed the traditional notions of objective truth and validity in ethics with incalculable, all-pervasive results. As he said of the Romantics elsewhere: "The world has never been the same since, and our politics and morals have been deeply transformed by them. Certainly this has been the most radical, and indeed dramatic, not to say terrifying, change in men's outlook in modern times." In these brilliant lectures Berlin surveys the myriad attempts to define Romanticism, distills its essence, traces its developments from its first stirrings to its apotheosis, and shows how its lasting legacy permeates our own outlook. Combining the freshness and immediacy of the spoken word with Berlin's inimitable eloquence and wit, the lectures range over a cast of the greatest thinkers and artists of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, including Kant, Rousseau, Diderot, Schiller, Schlegel, Novalis, Goethe, Blake, Byron, and Beethoven.Berlin argues that the ideas and attitudes held by these and other figures helped to shape twentieth-century nationalism, existentialism, democracy, totalitarianism, and our ideas about heroic individuals, individual self-fulfillment, and the exalted place of art. This is the record of an intellectual bravura performance - of one of the century's most influential philosophers dissecting and assessing a movement that changed the course of history.

读后感

以赛亚·伯林的《浪漫主义的根源》至少强调了一个事实，即值得人们去努力的价值观和生活理想并非唯一，并非放之四海皆准，并非今日完胜昨日。而浪漫主义运动的核心在于行动，通过行动，才有机会使用、斟酌并有所发明那些浸润着先辈情感和想象的词语，才有机会与现代理性主义推...  

这两天是大晴天，白天万里无云，晚上孤月高悬。与满月相对，容易让人产生怀旧感。已经是2008年了，再过11年，我们就进入了21世纪20年代。我不知道人们怎么称呼一个世纪的第二个十年，第一个十年可以称作是头十年，第二个十年又不能说是“10年代”。金融危机和随之必然而来的经...  

伯林的这本演讲录是他一贯的风格，旁征博引，肆意汪洋。译笔也非常流畅，不会像本系列的另一本《俄国思想家》那么时不时有砢眼的词句打断阅读的乐趣。 说回书本身，伯林一开头就提了个尖锐的问题：是什么能将自然主义的闲士和标新立异的新新人类拉到同一个阵营：如何定义浪漫...  

《浪漫主义的根源》是以赛亚·伯林于1965年三四月间在华盛顿国家美术馆A.W.梅隆系列讲座上做的有关浪漫主义的脱稿演讲，因为伯林生前想要完成一部浪漫主义研究的大部头专著，所以在他生前本书并未整理成文字出版，而是在他去世以后由研究者亨利·哈代整理出版。多亏了哈代，让...

优美的英语，语言通俗，敏锐的洞察力，译林的中文版翻译的不错的

"it must remain a dream a fantasy an object of disappointment if you seek it..the essence and value of which is that it's strictly unfulfillable, if it were fulfilled it'd be worthless/Will, and man as an activity as something which cant be described because it's perpetually creating..there's no self there's only movement."多元的imperfect equilibrium

就像是什么东西破掉了，打开了，比如处女膜，比如香槟瓶塞 男性生殖器进入阴道后只会越来越顺畅，香槟塞拔开后香槟会喷出来 我已经卡住很久了，不管是语言还是知识巨浪，都卡在我这浮躁懒惰愚蠢的小开口处。 柏林的语言把我冲醒，主义旋风把我看晕，让s m单纯的字母组合变得更严肃，恶心，恼人，枯燥，过度讲究，没事找事。眼睛模糊，屁股发麻，赶紧睡觉
