A Footnote to Historyby Robert Louis StevensonPREFACEAN affair which might be deemed worthy of a note of a few lines inany general history has been here expanded to the size of a volumeor large pamphlet. The smallness of the scale, and the singularityof the manners and events and many of the characters, considered,it is hoped that, in spite of its outlandish subject, the sketchmay find readers. It has been a task of difficulty. Speed was...
A NATIONAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY_To Sir John Sinclair__Washington, June 30, 1803_DEAR SIR, It is so long since I have had the pleasure ofwriting to you, that it would be vain to look back to dates toconnect the old and the new. Yet I ought not to pass over myacknowledgments to you for various publications received from time totime, and with great satisfaction and thankfulness. I send you asmall one in return, the work of a very unlettered farmer, yet...
这是作者1951年给一青年记者的废邮,“文革”时被抄走,此为残存部分。信写了四个月,在已发现的沈从文书信中,是写得最慢、最长的一封。同年11月11日,《光明日报》发表《我的学习》,是作者第一个正式发表的检讨,与这信写于同一时期。……手,根本无从下手。特别是许多书都必须放在手边自由调用,无充分经济力可作到,正如过渡者无舟楫桥梁,因掌握不住资料,任何理想通只是空空的,无办法可言!过去以为升官发财不容易,因为必有大本领的人才办得到。至于读书求知识,且一切为人而努力,总还可以希望。现在才明白也不是简单事。能力强则百事左右逢源,无往不自如。不中用,则什么事都办不通。敦煌展两个月,可惜不曾在会场中见到你。摸索四个月,倒是对于中古美术史中一小部门,学了一课,明白了些问题,不广,不深入,但碰着了一些待清理问题。...

The Story of My Heartby Richard JefferiesAN AUTOBIOGRAPHYCHAPTER ITHE story of my heart commences seventeen years ago. In the glowof youth there were times every now and then when I felt thenecessity of a strong inspiration of soulthought. My heart wasdusty, parched for want of the rain of deep feeling; my mind arid and dry,for there is a dust which settles on the heart as well as that which fallson a ledge. It is injurious to the mind as well as to the body to be always...
The Love Affairs Of A Bibliomaniacby Eugene FieldIntroductionThe determination to found a story or a series of sketches on the delights, adventures, and misadventures connected with bibliomania did not come impulsively to my brother. For many years, in short during the greater part of nearly a quarter of a century of journalistic work, he had celebrated in prose and verse, and always in his happiest and most delightful vein, the pleasures of book-hunting. Himself an indefatigable collector of
孔庆东 真正的幽默是我不幽默——钱钟书《说笑》 所有的教授都忙于填表格,都忙于申报项目,那两弹一星是永远搞不出来的。一个真正的学者、一个科学家,一辈子搞一两件能够传世的东西,就是这个民族的大幸。你要求他成天填表格来换职称、换房子、换待遇,这是整个民族的文化自杀。 谈谈钱钟书(1) 孔庆东,博士,北京大学中文系副教授,被誉为“北大醉侠”。主要作品有《超越雅俗》、《谁主沉浮》、《47楼207》、《空山疯语》、《井底飞天》、《独立韩秋》、《黑色的孤独》等专同学们好! 可能有的同学不认识我。我是北大中文系年轻的老教师孔庆东。今天,我来和大家一起欣赏一篇钱钟书先生的散文,叫做《说笑》,没有说笑政治的意思,只是我们这个课按照顺序排到我这一节了。我想在前面几次呢,很多我们现当代文学专业的老师已经给大家讲过一些高深的、严肃的文章,那么,在我这里呢,我的本意是想让大家轻松一下,讲一...
