From Emperor to Citien is the
autobiography of Pu Yi, the man who
was the last emperor of China. A
unique memoir of the first half of the
20th century as seen through the eyes
of one born to be an absolute
monarch, the book begins with the
author's vivid account of the last,
decadent days of the Ching Dynasty,
and closes with an introspective
self-portrait of the last Ching emperor
transformed into a retiring scholar
and citizen of the People's Republic
of China.
In detailing the events of the fifty
years between his ascension to the
throne and the final period of his life
as a quiet-living resident of Beijing,
Pu Yi reveals himself to be first and
foremost a survivor, caught up in the
torrent of global power struggles and
world conflict that played itself out
on the Asian continent through many
decades of violence and upheaval.
This firsthand description of the
dramatic events of Pu Yi's life was the
basis for the intemationally acclaimed
1987 Bemardo Bertolucci film The
Last Emperor which was named Best
Picture of the Year by the American
Academy of Motion Picture Arts and
Sciences. From Emperor to Citizen
readily lends itself to cinematic
adaptation as a personal narrative of
continuously significant and revea-
ling episodes.
Becoming emperor and then
forced to abdicate with the
establishment of the Republic of
China in 1911, all before he is seven
years old, Pu Yi continues to live in
the Forbidden City for another
decade, still treated as the Son of
Heaven by the moribund Ching court,
but in reality a virtual prisoner, with
little genuine human contact apart
from his beloved nurse Mrs. Wang,
his teacher Chen Pao-shen and his
English tutor Reginald Johnston.
When at the age of nineteen Pu Yi
is finally forced to vacate his isolated
existence within the Forbidden City,
he begins his long odyssey as the
dependent of the occupying imperial
Japanese regime, first in Tientsin, and
eventually installed as "emperor" of
the Japanese puppet state styled
Manchukuo in China's northeast
provinces. With the defeat of Japan
and the end of the Second World War,
Pu Yi faces a very uncertain future as
he is shunted off to Russia for five
years before retuming to a new China
transformed by revolution, where he
is confined in the Fushun War
Criminal Prison. Here he undergoes
several years of rehabilitation,
"learning how to become a human
being," as he calls it, before receiving
an official pardon and being allowed
to finally live as an ordinary citizen of
Beijing.
This autobiography is the culmi-
nation of a unique and remarkable
life, told simply, directly and frankly
by a man whose circumstances and
experiences were like no other.
很好的书。结合末代皇帝这部电影来看。
评分北京书市淘的,大学时读过中文版。旧书重读似春潮,内容倒感觉像是新读。最让人春潮涌动的是在抚顺,在哈尔滨监狱改造那段。飞龙不在天,也不再允许有飞龙的时候,方见人情,世味。但似乎又是昨日种种,都成今我的轮回。不过终于还是remoulding过来了,thanks to magnanimousness。
评分不知馋了多少水份:)
评分补记 好本子
评分1.17-4.7,疫情期间英语学习。《我的前半生》英译本,潘家园买的。没看过中文原版。兼学英语和历史。跌宕起伏,悲剧人生,以及重新做人。在后半部分,一直怀疑一个人真的能被改造吗?如果是真的,那我党思想改造的本事太大了。如果是真的,那最后两节让人感动得想流泪——特赦和回到北京,以及那个最后才揭露的真相。
对于一个已经逝去的人写的东西,不是什么著作,只能给还行了。 不好意思,和《堂吉诃德》一样,没有看完。其实很想把它看完,以一个人对明星隐私的偷窥欲想看一个皇帝的前半生是怎样度过的。不像《堂吉诃德》,看个开头和结尾,就知道它要讲什么,想表达什么。这是一部自传,他...
评分我一直在想,溥仪到底有没有说真话。 这本书带有很强的传奇色彩,所以还是很吸引人的。但不得不说,溥仪的那些口号,那些批判,有着强烈的XX色彩。我们有理由相信,他在写作这本书的时候是处在某种压力之下,或者,带有自保的心理。 看溥仪这个人,本事没多少,但是非常善于权...
评分一本奇书,一位奇人。 爱新觉罗溥仪,中国最后一个皇帝,关于他的故事和影视文学作品多如牛毛,此书作为溥仪唯一的自传,一直占据着最贴切资料的重要地位,但看过此书的人基本都能感受到,成书当时的特殊背景与溥仪的特别身份,注定让这本书成为后世众说纷纭的一个谜案。 首先...
评分看了黄子华演的《非常公民》才去弄来这本书和他洋师傅庄士敦的《紫禁城的黄昏》。 很喜欢溥仪的老师陈宝琛先生。“他笑的时候,眼睛在老光镜片后面眯成一道线,一只手慢慢捋着雪白而稀疏的胡子”。 溥仪的毛笔字真的很漂亮呃。用自来水笔写的就一般般了。以前听老师说,毛笔...
评分1溥仪祖母叶赫那拉•婉贞 慈禧太后的儿子同治去世之后,同治无子,慈禧便要了自己亲妹妹醇亲王福晋叶赫那拉婉贞与咸丰亲弟弟醇亲王的嫡子做了皇帝,即光绪。可惜光绪皇帝只是个傀儡皇帝。光绪只做了十几年傀儡皇帝,就在皇宫里暴卒。结果第二天慈禧又向自己的妹妹叶赫那拉婉...
