图书描述

“Houses aren’t refuges from history. They are where history ends up.”

Bill Bryson and his family live in a Victorian parsonage in a part of England where nothing of any great significance has happened since the Romans decamped. Yet one day, he began to consider how very little he knew about the ordinary things of life as he found it in that comfortable home. To remedy this, he formed the idea of journeying about his house from room to room to “write a history of the world without leaving home.” The bathroom provides the occasion for a history of hygiene; the bedroom, sex, death, and sleep; the kitchen, nutrition and the spice trade; and so on, as Bryson shows how each has figured in the evolution of private life. Whatever happens in the world, he demonstrates, ends up in our house, in the paint and the pipes and the pillows and every item of furniture.

著者简介

William McGuire "Bill" Bryson, OBE, FRS was born in Des Moines, Iowa, in 1951. He settled in England in 1977, and worked in journalism until he became a full time writer. He lived for many years with his English wife and four children in North Yorkshire. He and his family then moved to New Hampshire in America for a few years, but they have now returned to live in the UK.

In The Lost Continent, Bill Bryson's hilarious first travel book, he chronicled a trip in his mother's Chevy around small town America. It was followed by Neither Here Nor There, an account of his first trip around Europe. Other travel books include the massive bestseller Notes From a Small Island, which won the 2003 World Book Day National Poll to find the book which best represented modern England, followed by A Walk in the Woods (in which Stephen Katz, his travel companion from Neither Here Nor There, made a welcome reappearance), Notes From a Big Country and Down Under.

Bill Bryson has also written several highly praised books on the English language, including Mother Tongue and Made in America. In his last book, he turned his attention to science. A Short History of Nearly Everything was lauded with critical acclaim, and became a huge bestseller. It was shortlisted for the Samuel Johnson Prize, before going on to win the Aventis Prize for Science Books and the Descartes Science Communication Prize. His next book, The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid, is a memoir of growing up in 1950s America, featuring another appearance from his old friend Stephen Katz. October 8 sees the publication of A Really Short History of Nearly Everything.

他真有本事把好玩的事情写得无聊

评分

被困在家看这本书挺切题的。主要的切入点是作者建于1851年的住所,拓展开去讲了很多17-19世纪英国(捎带美国)的发展变迁。本来会期待更多更古的东西,比如罗马,但是大概是罗马传统真的丢尽,所以实际也没有提起太多。以后再去有钱人家的房子——我很爱的景点——时大概会有更多似曾相识的片段。岁月的长河里人类短暂的悲欢,我们都是无声的演员。

读后感

作者是《万物简史》的作者,一贯的幽默轻松文风,娓娓道来我们已经习惯的稀松平常的门厅、厨房、保险丝盒、起居室、餐厅的起源,顺带聊聊轶闻八卦,讲讲英语词源,以及我们周知的历史的另外一面。 如作者所说:人类生活的历史,就是一部慢慢让自己的生活变得更加舒适的...

房子既可能是怪黎叔,也可能是小萝莉,是个没有定型的装置。房屋因地理、文化环境及各国相关政策的不同,而显示出迥异的风格来。房子既可能是蜗居式胶囊公寓,也可能是宽阔的别墅牧场。万变不离其宗的一点是,房子里一定要有人。男男女女的吃喝拉撒、油盐酱醋调和成一首生活之...

现在我们住的房子已经很齐全了,做饭在厨房,睡觉在卧室,娱乐在客厅,看书在书房。看着熟悉的一切,我们不会想到最早的地方时什么样子的,趣味生活简史给了我们很好的答案。在人类的发展过程中,这些事如何步入我们生活的。最开始人类盖得房子是连在一起的,没有这么多房...

冲着作者的名字买的,希望延续《万物简史》那种惊艳的感觉。这本书内容实际上很有意思,通过一套几个世纪前的旧式房子的各个房间引出不同的话题,涉及建筑史、建材史、奴役史、能源史、疾病史、性交史、育婴史等,让人大开眼界。但无法饶恕的还是那个问题,我都怀疑以后敢不敢...
