Female Suffrageby Susan Fenimore CooperA LETTER TO THE CHRISTIAN WOMEN OF AMERICA.Part I.The natural position of woman is clearly, to a limited degree, asubordinate one. Such it has always been throughout the world, in allages, and in many widely different conditions of society. There arethree conclusive reasons why we should expect it to continue so forthe future.FIRST. Woman in natural physical strength is so greatly inferior toman that she is entirely in his power, quite incapable of self-..
库切这回的主人公是一位年近七旬的女作家,名叫伊丽莎白的澳大利亚人,东西不多却很有影响,这有点像库切本人。也许,你可以把伊丽莎白视为库切的部分替身,确实有许多因素给人这种暗示,包括早年的欧洲经历,作为作家在英语世界中的边缘身份,以及对西方基督教主流文化所持相似的批判态度,等等。但是千万别把她当做库切本人,别说性别不同,年龄也差一截,关键是作者和他塑造的人物总归是一种不对称的关系,比起故事之中的她,库切具有巴赫金所说的作者的“外在立场”(exotopie),这使得他对世界的观察比她更透彻,看法上也更有分寸。库切的策略是让伊丽莎白去替他嚷嚷,让她去面对驳诘、冷落和各种尴尬场面,借着女作家那份偏执劲儿,库切毫无顾忌地将自己对理性的批判引向较为极端的方向。这一来抛头露面的伊丽莎白让他玩残了,既然被推到“看”与“被看”的双重境地,那么她既是一个火力点也成了被攻击的标靶,她得为自己寻...
Children of the Whirlwindby Leroy ScottCHAPTER IIt was an uninspiring bit of street: narrow, paved with cobble; hot and noisy in summer, reeking with unwholesome mud during the drizzling and snow-slimed months of winter. It looked anything this May after noon except a starting-place for drama. But, then, the great dramas of life often avoid the splendid estates and trappings with which conventional romance would equip them, and have their beginnings in unlikeliest environment; and thence sweep
跟庄技巧:认清熊头避风险 黄家坚 (02/23/2000)股市的脸说变就变,一会儿尚是人见人爱的牛哥,一会儿却变成人见人怕的黑熊,投资者在火热的气氛中尤其需保持冷静的头脑,提前掌握头部的特征,一旦熊头露脸之际可及时加以防范。一般来说,根据以下几个方面可确认股指(或股价正在构筑头部):1、天量天价。“天量”标准在每次行情都会有所不同,一般来说,随着市场规模的扩大、流通市值的增大,天量的标准亦在不断增大。天量出现时我们往往认为新的天量仍会出现,导致错失卖出时机。投资者在无法确认是否是天量时,可在成交创出新高时提前出局。一旦成交创出新高,若后续成交未能继续放大,天价往往在其后的数天内(有时是同一天)出现。在5.19行情中,6月25日创出...

Ernest HemingwayIt was very late and everyone had left the cafe except an old man who sat in the shadow the leaves of the tree made against the electric light. In the day time the street was dusty, but at night the dew settled the dust and the old man liked to sit late because he was deaf and now at night it was quiet and he felt the difference. The two waiters inside the cafe knew that the old man was a little drunk, and while he was a good client they knew that if he became too drunk he would

1945年9月2日,日本代表在投降书上签字,至此,中国的抗日战争胜利结束。转眼间,60年过去了。发生在1931年的那场日本帝国主义侵华战争,是20世纪乃至整个世界历史上最残酷、最血腥的战争。在中国近代史中,没有哪一段历史比日本帝国主义侵略中国使中华民族遭受的灾难和压迫更为深重、更为屈辱。由于这场战争,中国仅死亡人数就达到了3500万,人民流离失所、财产丧失殆尽的更不在少数。然而,不能不看到,在战争过去60年后,有人在有意识地淡忘这段历史,“过去的就让它过去了,今后一切积极向前看”,是这种论调的代表性观点。更有人在歪曲历史。由日本新历史教科书编撰会推出的《新历史教科书》,对早有公论的历史事实肆意篡改。只略举几例:甲午战争的爆发,是由于“清不想失掉最后的朝贡国朝鲜,开始将日本作为敌人”;九一八事变,是由于“中国排日运动活跃”;卢沟桥事变,是因为“中国一侧对日持续射击,进入战争状态”;世...
