Travels with Herodotus pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
From the master of literary reportage whose acclaimed books include Shah of Shahs, The Emperor, and The Shadow of the Sun, an intimate account of his first youthful forays beyond the Iron Curtain.
Just out of university in 1955, Kapuscinski told his editor that he’d like to go abroad. Dreaming no farther than Czechoslovakia, the young reporter found himself sent to India. Wide-eyed and captivated, he would discover in those days his life’s work—to understand and describe the world in its remotest reaches, in all its multiplicity. From the rituals of sunrise at Persepolis to the incongruity of Louis Armstrong performing before a stone-faced crowd in Khartoum, Kapuscinski gives us the non-Western world as he first saw it, through still-virginal Western eyes.
The companion on his travels: a volume of Herodotus, a gift from his first boss. Whether in China, Poland, Iran, or the Congo, it was the “father of history”—and, as Kapuscinski would realize, of globalism—who helped the young correspondent to make sense of events, to find the story where it did not obviously exist. It is this great forerunner’s spirit—both supremely worldly and innately Occidental—that would continue to whet Kapuscinski’s ravenous appetite for discovering the broader world and that has made him our own indispensable companion on any leg of that perpetual journey.</p>
Ryszard Kapuściński debuted as a poet in Dziś i jutro at the age of 17 and has been a journalist, writer, and publicist. In 1964 he was appointed to the Polish Press Agency and began traveling around the developing world and reporting on wars, coups and revolutions in Asia, the Americas, and Europe; he lived through twenty-seven revolutions and coups, was jailed forty times, and survived four death sentences. During some of this time he also worked for the Polish Secret Service, although little is known of his role.
作為一個能激起閱讀曆史和伯羅奔尼撒戰爭史的興趣的誘餌是極好的

評分希羅多德被譽為曆史之父,卡普欽斯基在書中稱其為良師,有意識地去學習《曆史》的報道技藝,說生活在公元前5世紀的希羅多德是“一個造詣極高、無與倫比的記者,他齣門遠行、留心觀察、與人聊天、聆聽彆人講述故事。之後,他會把自己的所見所聞認真記錄下來,換句話說,就是認真記在腦子裏”,“在不同的文化背景下長大,世界觀是由多種不同元素組成的,他們被邊緣化,與人有距離感、有差異,但同時又兼有多樣性”。

評分他對於希羅多德的喜愛一直讓我想起【英倫情人】裡那個燒的亂七八糟的男主家帶著的那本【歷史】(後來想到好像是同一本書),當他念【Comma】的時候是我所能想象出來最性感的逗號了。 戀物是一種極具安全感的感情定位,不論那物是本書,是個人,是膝蓋,輪胎,尸體,高跟鞋,馬...
評分总体来说这本两条thread的书值得一读,可能和自己的部分经历有关。但是作为一个女人纯粹从语言上翻译这本书是一种硬伤,对基本的历史还是需要补习,而各种书后致谢和校订的人如果不是缺乏历史知识就是敷衍了事未认真阅读,比如波斯的薛西斯(Xerxes)被翻成“克谢尔克谢斯”,...
評分卡普欽斯基曾在接受訪問時表示,他的作品時寫給“全球各地仍保有赤子之心並對世界充滿好奇的人們”。 什麼是赤子之心和充滿好奇?作者本人是,希羅多德也是。 卡普欽斯基如果沒有讀《歷史》,大概又會成為那個時代一個典型的波蘭人,甚至典型的波蘭記者。在封閉社會長大,...
評分尽管印度语和中文的书写方式对我来说都同样难,可是这两个国家人民的行为方式却明显不同。印度人显得很放松,中国人表现得很拘谨,警觉心很强。印度人即使在拥挤不堪时也不会成群结队,他们的人群显得很松散,杂乱无章,缓缓地流动着;而在中国,人多拥挤时,人群也是成形的,显...
