史书,虽然不必俪采百字之偶,争价一句之奇;然则,大师不鸣则已,鸣必惊人,其声如万钧之洪钟,断无铮铮之细响。然我读此书,犹如身处绝塞,那种铮铮鏦鏦的钝刀刮竹声和味同嚼蜡的感觉,让人深感生而无趣之绝望。我觉得它可以换一个书名:“《真菌生物宋徽宗生活习性说明书》”...
评分如果对宋徽宗其人一无所知,读过本书前三部分后,会让人觉得宋徽宗是一位成功的皇帝,内政治理方面,国家经济繁荣,社会福利优渥,公共教育体系完善;文化礼仪的传播方面,制定标准化的礼仪流程,弘扬道教,建立全国宫观、祭祀体系;个人修养方面,精通诗书画,对医学有极大兴...
评分赵宋王朝的诸位皇帝当中,宋徽宗是个独特的存在。尽管对时人而言,位居权力顶峰的他,高不可攀,但后世记住的,要么是他无能君主的形象——被金人掳走,沦为阶下囚——赵宋王朝威风不再,要么是作为非凡艺术家的他,不但以瘦金体在书法史上占据一席之地,而且还以高超的画技闻...
评分徐瑾 宋代是一个矛盾的时代。 前人感叹读宋史常流泪。明代王夫之曾经批判“陋宋”,国史大家钱穆更是表示汉唐宋明清中,宋是“最贫最弱”的一环,“从政治制度上看来,也是最没有建树的一环”。与此同时,宋代在华夏历史中,却又同时是斯文的代表。我们知道,宋代文化经济方面...

China was the most advanced country in the world when Huizong ascended the throne in 1100 CE. In his eventful twenty-six year reign, the artistically-gifted emperor guided the Song Dynasty toward cultural greatness. Yet Huizong would be known to posterity as a political failure who lost the throne to Jurchen invaders and died their prisoner. The first comprehensive English-language biography of this important monarch, Emperor Huizong is a nuanced portrait that corrects the prevailing view of Huizong as decadent and negligent. Patricia Ebrey recasts him as a ruler genuinely ambitious—if too much so—in pursuing glory for his flourishing realm.
After a rocky start trying to overcome political animosities at court, Huizong turned his attention to the good he could do. He greatly expanded the court’s charitable ventures, founding schools, hospitals, orphanages, and paupers’ cemeteries. An accomplished artist, he surrounded himself with outstanding poets, painters, and musicians and built palaces, temples, and gardens of unsurpassed splendor. What is often overlooked, Ebrey points out, is the importance of religious Daoism in Huizong’s understanding of his role. He treated Daoist spiritual masters with great deference, wrote scriptural commentaries, and urged his subjects to adopt his beliefs and practices. This devotion to the Daoist vision of sacred kingship eventually alienated the Confucian mainstream and compromised his ability to govern.
Readers will welcome this lively biography, which adds new dimensions to our understanding of a passionate and paradoxical ruler who, so many centuries later, continues to inspire both admiration and disapproval.
看完非常难过。当一个连皇宫都不能出的皇帝,只能醉心于自己的一些爱好和执念,这些爱好确实花钱,但他也并不是不理朝政。他不是个完美的皇帝,又碰上了倒霉的时候。但我们都不是完美的人类,又何必苛责于他?
评分立体全面地回顾了徽宗的一生,从浮华到潦倒,让人无限唏嘘。最具可读性的在我看来是每章最后作者的小问题和自问自答,以及最后对全书史料选择的说明。
评分伊佩霞给宋徽宗全面翻案的著作。试图全面摆脱历史的后见之明,把宋徽宗当成一个人,一个局限于当时的环境和观念的人,并把很多当时的偶然性都考虑进去。伊佩霞是很成功的史学家,运用材料极多,思路清晰准确;不过行文就不如专业的艺术史学者来得富于文采,读得特别累。大概就像啃窝窝头的感觉,管饱,就是没什么滋味。
评分声明一下这本来就不是小说,而是更接近学术期刊之作。Ebrey教授很严谨地描述了宋徽宗的一生,有理有据,不是戏说或者哗众取宠。正因为是严谨的学术作品,可能会少一些趣味性。是很好地让中国人了解外国这一批严谨治学的学者对于宋朝和宋徽宗的镜子。
