本书是以国家社科基金重点项目“马克思主义文艺理论中国化研究”的结项成果为基础定稿出版的。 马克思主义文艺理论中国化，是当代马克思主义文艺学构建的根本基础与重要内涵。当代马克思主义文艺学的构建，既是结合中国国情，接受与吸收马克思主义文艺理论的基本观点与基本方法，并以此指导中国文艺发展，解决文艺实践问题的过程；同时也是马克思主义文艺理论的原典形态与价值内涵在中国文艺实践考察与当代形态文论构建中，不断体现出新的时代精神并为人们自觉认识与明确掌握的过程。 《马克思主义文艺理论中国化论纲》中特别阐述了习近平文艺座谈会提出的“以人民为中心”的文艺导向，结合中国文艺实践，特别是“大众文化”实践，并借鉴西方“大众文化”的研究成果，探索当代中国“大众文化”的定位、批评尺度以及健康发展的路径，体现出鲜明的时代精神与深刻的历史意味。 《马克思主义文艺理论中国化论纲》立足中国国情，强化对马克思主义文艺理论丰富内涵的多向拓展与整合，在理论与实践的统一上，梳理与求证马克思主义文艺理论中国化、时代化与大众化的正确途径，从而进一步明确“以人民为中心”的当代马克思主义文艺学研究的基本导向。

1917年7月，胡适受蔡元培之邀就任国立北京大学文科教授，讲授中国古代哲学史、中国名学、英文高等修辞学。胡适一边教学，一边编写教材。顾颉刚曾对同窗傅斯年推荐：“胡先生讲的的确不差，他有眼光、有胆量、有断制，确是一个有能力的哲学史家。” 　　自1919年至1937年间。胡适多次在北京大学讲授中国哲学史，而且主要是讲中古哲学史和近世哲学史，其中1919年2月出版的《中国哲学史大纲》（卷上）就是在讲义的内容基础上修定而成。胡适是首位采用了西方近代哲学的体系和方法研究中国哲学的人，由于他的出现，中国的思想史才初具规模。他在中国哲学史，甚至在各种专史和通史的研究方面，都是创性的，他觉得是中国哲学思想史的山鼻祖。 　　《胡适的北大哲学课》以胡适在北京大学的所有哲学讲义为母本，再综合胡适关于中国哲学的其他著作整理而成，力求为读者构建一个*全的胡适哲学体系，让读者*直的感受哲学大师的风采。

Ralph Waldo Emerson, was born at Boston in 1803 into a distinguished family of New England Unitarian ministers. His was the eighth generation to enter the ministry in a dynasty that reached back to the earliest days of Puritan America. Despite the death of his father when Emerson was only eleven, he was able to be educated at Boston Latin School and then Harvard, from which he graduated in 1821. After several years of reluctant school teaching, he returned to the Harvard Divinity School, entering the Unitarian ministry during a period of robust ecclesiastic debate. By 1829 Emerson was married and well on his way to a promising career in the church through his appointment to an important congregation in Boston. However, his career in the ministry did not last long. Following the death of his first wife, Ellen, his private religious doubts led him to announce his resignation to his congregation, claiming he was unable to preach a doctrine he no longer believed and that "to be a good minister it was necessary to leave the ministry."With the modest legacy left him from his first wife, Emerson was able to devote himself to study and travel. In Europe he met many of the important Romantic writers whose ideas on art, philosophy, and literature were transforming the writing of the Nineteenth Century. He also continued to explore his own ideas in a series of voluminous journals which he had kept from his earliest youth and from which virtually all of his literary creation would be generated. Taking up residence in Concord, Massachusetts, Emerson devoted himself to study, writing and a series of public lectures in the growing lyceum movement. From these lyceum addresses Emerson developed and then in 1836 published his most important work, Nature. Its publication also coincided with his organizing role in the Transcendental Club, a group of leading New England educators, clergy, and intellectuals interested in idealistic religion, philosophy, and literature.

The present publication is intended to supply a recognised deficiency in our literature—a library edition of the Essays of Montaigne. This great French writer deserves to be regarded as a classic, not only in the land of his birth, but in all countries and in all literatures. His Essays, which are at once the most celebrated and the most permanent of his productions, form a magazine out of which such minds as those of Bacon and Shakespeare did not disdain to help themselves; and, indeed, as Hallam observes, the Frenchman's literary importance largely results from the share which his mind had in influencing other minds, coeval and subsequent. But, at the same time, estimating the value and rank of the essayist, we are not to leave out of the account the drawbacks and the circumstances of the period: the imperfect state of education, the comparative scarcity of books, and the limited opportunities of intellectual intercourse. Montaigne freely borrowed of others, and he has found men willing to borrow of him as freely. We need not wonder at the reputation which he with seeming facility achieved. He was, without being aware of it, the leader of a new school in letters and morals. His book was different from all others which were at that date in the world. It diverted the ancient currents of thought into new channels. It told its readers, with unexampled frankness, what its writer's opinion was about men and things, and threw what must have been a strange kind of new light on many matters but darkly understood. Above all, the essayist uncased himself, and made his intellectual and physical organism public property. He took the world into his confidence on all subjects. His essays were a sort of literary anatomy, where we get a diagnosis of the writer's mind, made by himself at different levels and under a large variety of operating influences. Of all egotists, Montaigne, if not the greatest, was the most fascinating, because, perhaps, he was the least affected and most truthful. What he did, and what he had professed to do, was to dissect his mind, and show us, as best he could, how it was made, and what relation it bore to external objects. He investigated his mental structure as a schoolboy pulls his watch to pieces, to examine the mechanism of the works; and the result, accompanied by illustrations abounding with originality and force, he delivered to his fellow-men in a book. W. C. H. KENSINGTON, November 1877. THE LIFE OF MONTAIGNE The author of the Essays was born, as he informs us himself, between eleven and twelve o'clock in the day, the last of February 1533, at the chateau of St. Michel de Montaigne. His father, Pierre Eyquem, esquire, was successively first Jurat of the town of Bordeaux (1530), Under-Mayor 1536, Jurat for the second time in 1540, Procureur in 1546, and at length Mayor from 1553 to 1556. He was a man of austere probity, who had "a particular regard for honour and for propriety in his person and attire . . . a mighty good faith in his speech, and a conscience and a religious feeling inclining to superstition, rather than to the other extreme. Between 1556 and 1563 an important incident occurred in the life of Montaigne, in the commencement of his romantic friendship with Etienne de la Boetie, whom he had met, as he tells us, by pure chance at some festive celebration in the town. From their very first interview the two found themselves drawn irresistibly close to one another, and during six years this alliance was foremost in the heart of Montaigne, as it was afterwards in his memory, when death had severed it.
