☆写孔子的成长和转型，写孔子的执著与妥协 ☆细描圣人生活世界，还原孔子生平真相，发千载未发之隐覆 ☆品味贵族时代风貌，追寻古代政治文明。贵族社会为何渐行渐远，世袭寡头政治有何顽疾，历史出路又在何方？ ☆借孔子看春秋，全景展现早期华夏的质朴与洪荒，文明滥觞期的脉动与嬗变。 ------------------ 在中国历史的长河中，春秋贵族世袭政治别具一格，它是西周封建制的延伸和失控，与战国开端的君主集权制、官僚制、编户齐民模式截然不同。 作为初级贵族——士——的私生、遗腹子，孔子生长于贫寒的母亲家族。他如何被贵族群体接纳，又如何在卿大夫世袭政治中脱颖而出？ 春秋中后期的列国，世代垄断朝政的寡头格局形成。所谓世卿世大夫，鲁有三桓，郑有七穆，晋有六卿……故孔子曰：“禄之去公室，五世矣；政逮於大夫，四世矣。” 作为鲁国寡头三桓家族的下属，孔子试图重构国家政治秩序，调解国君与寡头、贵族与贱民的关系，他的努力为何失败，寡头世袭政治的历史出口又在何方？ 和孔子体貌相同的阳虎，到底二人有无亲缘？他们在贵族社会中的起点相似，结局大异其趣，是否阳虎才是历史趋势的先行者？ 孔子死后如何被弟子子贡神化，又如何被弟子曾参还原，最终成为无宗教神性的文化圣人？ 通过解读经史文献，本书再现了孔子在寡头世袭政治游戏规则中沉浮的一生，以及他生活的春秋时代的种种生活场景、日用礼俗，对孔子的生活世界进行了人类学乃至影视视觉层面的还原。 ----------------- 本书是《南北战争三百年》作者李硕所写的孔子传记。生动书写孔子的一生：以私生子的身份出生，在底层单亲家庭中成长，一步步做到鲁国最大的官“大司寇行摄相事”，同时也见证了春秋末期各国内政外交的风云变幻与奇闻轶事。孔子遭遇政治失意后周游列国，终究未能实现自己的从政理想。但他的学说经后人的传承与解释，流传后世，他也被弟子“制造”成了至圣先师。 我们流俗的印象中，孔子作为一个高高在上的“圣人”，是一个抽象的人物。本书正是要去掉孔子的这层“圣人”光环，还原他作为普通人的成长历程。他有自己的喜怒哀乐与忧惧，也有困惑、纠结与执着。作者探究了孔子面对各种人生事件的心理状态与动机，从而描画出一个丰富、完整的孔子形象。 本书以孔子的一生为缩影，全面展现出了春秋时期贵族社会的风貌。包括贵族的等级体系、礼仪习俗、“游戏规则”，各国的政治状况与权力角逐、结盟、冲突，甚至各国贵族之间的奇闻轶事。同时，也描绘出，在春秋战国之交的大变革时代，贵族社会是如何瓦解，如何走向没落的。 ----------------- 《孔子大历史》文字灵活轻松，深层呈现的则是对于文明逻辑、人类秩序的思考，重在对于历史情境的整体把握，对于超越历史的人性的洞察，李硕在这方面的功力令人钦佩。这是本书与其他关于孔子的著作最大区别所在。 ——施展（外交学院，《枢纽》作者） 孔子是时代的一面镜子。本书用通俗浅显的语言，对周代的姓氏、称谓、礼仪、日常生活等方方面面加以介绍，对孔子的生活世界进行了细致生动的还原，对这些复杂问题的把握相当透彻。 ——韩巍（北京大学中国古代史研究中心） 这本书以人物传记的形式，既跳出传统对孔子“圣化”的解读取径，又跳出新文化粗暴反孔的模式，通过将孔子置于其生活时代，揭示孔子时代的真实，以及其一些思想的真实，对历史地理解孔子，进而认识国学，将会是有裨益的。 ——向燕南（北京师范大学历史学院教授）

BBC One的3集迷你剧《英式丑闻 A Very English Scandal》根据Jeremy Thorpe的真人真事所改篇。在60年代末英国才刚刚对同性恋除罪化，而当时作为自由党领袖，以及百年来英国政党中最年轻的领袖，Jeremy Thorpe（Hugh Grant饰）隐藏着一个秘密 – 他有一个前同性恋人 Norman Scott（Ben Whishaw饰）。 只要Norman Scott还活着，这对Jeremy Thorpe来说都是威胁，因此他策划谋杀前度，但最终不但不成事，还被对方指控意图谋杀。此事令Jeremy Thorpe成为首位因谋杀案而受审判的英国政治家，更被公众得知他的同志身份；最终Jeremy Thorpe虽然被判无罪，但也结束了政治生涯。 该剧由Stephen Frears执导﹑Russell T.

文章以极长的篇幅（全文三万余字）和丰富的史料（注释多达七十三条，六千余字）论证了山涛——竹林七贤的一份子——在魏末晋初的政坛无比强大的影响力，从而进一步说明了竹林七贤并不是“一群只爱清谈的文人”，相反，他们在政治上有着积极的目标，而背后有一股鲜明的政治力量。 作者认为山涛实际上是竹林七贤的代表，其倾向也代表了魏末入晋的许多名士的倾向。作者认为山涛在“新朝（指西晋）的争衡里，显出一个有决定性影响力的先进者的地位，一个名士阵线的长老和组织者的地位”。为了论证这样的观点，作者又举出了贾充和羊祜二人，并认为山涛正是二人争衡中羊祜背后的支持者，“是一个比争衡两方的主角都还更重些的人物，是一个不凭政府中的地位而能够企图左右政治大局的人”。

所谓“林纾冤案”即对林纾其人其书的错误评价。著者首先通过郑振铎、鲁迅、刘半农等许多著名作家、学者的言说，追查事实真相，对林纾当年之对五四新文学的“敌对”进行了澄清。其次，著者通过细致的版本调查，对林纾翻译的莎士比亚、易卜生、斯宾塞、塞万提斯等人作品进行了周密考察，一一考证了林纾翻译时所用的底本，证明了林纾忠实的翻译态度。以此，对林纾进行重新评价。林纾冤案的澄清，不仅是对文学作品、作家的一个重要讨论。同时这个经验也告诫学术界在做评论的时候，必须有理有据，切不可人云亦云。相信此书的中文版一定会对中国的学术界产生极大的影响，并为今后的文学研究方式提供重要的借鉴。

Vivian Maier's photos were seemingly destined for obscurity, lost among the clutter of the countless objects she'd collected throughout her life.
