Scholar and author Lear (Therapeutic Action: An Earnest Plea for Irony) decodes the courage and wisdom of the last great chief of the Crow peoples, Plenty Coups (1848-1932), in this "philosophical anthropology" which seeks to pin down the way societies-and the individuals who lead them-carry on in the face of "cultural catastrophe." As a jumping-off point, Lear uses a quote from Plenty Coups's oral history, given to Frank B. Linderman shortly before the chief's death: "But when the buffalo went away the hearts of my people fell to the ground... After this nothing happened." The first part of the book explores the meaning of "nothing happened," explicating the idea that history itself comes to an end when the concepts a culture uses to define its world-in this case, concepts tied to hunting, battle, and honor-become obsolete. The second part tackles "Ethics at the Horizon," the possibilities for "radical hope" in the face of inconceivable cultural change through courage, wisdom and flexibility, on both a personal and cultural level. The third part discusses the ramifications of "radical hope," both practically and philosophically. Lear's study is probably too rigorous rhetorically to appeal to a wide audience, and his insistence that "we live at a time of a heightened sense that civilizations are themselves vulnerable" could have been supported with some explicit contemporary parallels, but for those interested in the final years of the Crow nation or the ethical challenges faced by victims of cultural destruction, this book will prove enlightening.

似乎所谓的幸福就是得到自己最想的东西,而不去考虑其他因素,所谓幸福就是一个人的心里全是你,那么的在乎,,,难道自己这样就不是在乎吗?为什么没有人能理解,或许还是要自己爬出这个让自己心累的迷雾。。。。

评分利尔的思考是从这样一句话开始的:“从那以后,什么事都没发生。” 这话出自Plenty Coups之口——克劳(the Crow)部落的领袖,他名字的意思实际是“伟大的成就”。Plenty Coups处在生命的暮年,正对一个白人作家讲述他一生的故事。他出生在印第安文化已经开始受到威胁的19世...
