Zakhar Prilepin’s novel-in-stories, Sin, has become a literary phenomenon in Russia, where it was published in 2007. It has been hailed as the epitome of the spirit of the opening decade of the 21st century, and was called “the book of the decade” by the prestigious Super Natsbest Award jury. Now available for the first time in English, it not only embodies the reality of post-perestroika Russia, but also shows that even in this reality, just like in any other, it is possible to maintain a positive attitude while remaining human. Zakharka is young, strong, in love with love and with life’s random, telling moments. In the episodes of his life, presented here in non-chronological order, we see him as a little boy, a lovelorn teenager, a hard-drinking grave-digger, a nightclub bouncer, a father, and a soldier in Chechnya. He even writes poetry, and his stylistically varied verses are presented in the penultimate chapter of the book. Loving life, he looks boldly, and even with curiosity, into the face of death – taking pictures of the deceased at a funeral, staring with agitation at the entrails of a just-disembowelled pig, chronicling the death of a childhood friend – and values the freedom of not fearing his own end. It is family that ultimately defines happiness for Zakharka; but it is also family that makes him realize, on the desolate Chechen border, that his love for them has deprived him of this freedom. Sin offers a fascinating glimpse into the recent Russian past, as well as its present, with its unemployment, poverty, violence, and local wars – social problems that may be found in many corners of the world. Zakhar Prilepin presents these realities through the eyes of Zakharka, taking us along on the life-affirming journey of his unforgettable protagonist.

本书是英国哲学家勃特兰·罗素的哲学代表作之一，成书于1945年，全名为《西方哲学史及其与从古代到现代的政治、社会情况的联系》，其写作目的是揭示“哲学乃是社会生活与政治生活的一个组成部分，它并不是卓越的个人所做出的孤立的思考，而是曾经有各种体系盛行过的各种社会性格的产物与成因”。在这部敦厚的著作中，罗素将他认为对西方哲学的发展有重大影响的历史事件及人物辟专门章节以作详细论述。 全书具体分为“古代哲学”“天主教哲学”“近代哲学”三卷，我们将该书分为上下两册，一二卷为*册，第三卷为第二册，以古希腊文明的兴起端，分别介绍了米利都学派、毕达哥拉斯、赫拉克利特、巴门尼德、恩培多克勒、阿那克萨哥拉苏格拉底、柏拉图、亚里士多德、犬儒学派，到逻辑分析哲学为止。共计80余万字，规模宏大而严谨，通俗易懂，振聋发聩。

相声是人们喜闻乐见的艺术形式，作者透过其通俗易懂的表面，发现了深藏其中的丰富哲理和人生意义，探讨了相声的真正本质；并一步思考了科学与艺术、宗教与道德以及人生价值等重大问题；剖析了当代社会的部分精神现象。作者认为，相声揭露了事物与认识的不对称，世界本质上具有荒谬性，人们只有经常反思、不断追问，才能认识自己，克服精神的陨落。

中文版《亚里士多德全集》（10卷本）1997年出齐后，获得了第四届国家图书奖（1999年）、国家社会科学基金项目优秀成果一等奖（1999年）等多项大奖。为了读者使用的方便，也为了把自己研究西方哲学尤其是古希腊哲学的心得传达给读者，全集主编苗力田先生又编选了带有注释的《亚里士多德选集》（包括形而上学卷、伦理学卷和政治学卷，1999—2000年出版）。几年来，不断有读者尤其是大学生和研究生反映需要亚里士多德著作的单行本。为了满足这些读者的需要，我们将亚里士多德*影响的著作（《工具论》、《物理学》、《形而上学》、《尼各马科伦理学》、《政治学》和《修辞术·亚历山大修辞学·论诗》）以单行本的形式出版。需要说明的是：单行本的译文与《亚里士多德全集》大体一致。个别术语和人名的改动，是苗力田先生在全集重印和做电子版时亲自订正的。单行本的注释与全集保持一致。全集的脚注中所引证的希腊语词是按照国家颁布的《汉语拼音方案》的字母表对应拼写的。对西方哲学名著的译介和研究是一项没有止境的事业。准确、完美的译文，深、详尽的注释，以至创造性的阐释和发展，是只能近而难以完全达到的理想境界。不断近这一境界，既有赖于学术界的努力，也需要出版界的推动。我们愿与学术界一道，不断为学术步作出贡献。

《理想国》是柏拉图创作的哲学对话体著作。全书以苏格拉底之口，通过与其他人对话的方式，设计了一个真、善、美相统一的政体，即可以达到公正的理想国。 书中讨论的大多数问题都和日常生活密切相关，如优生学问题、节育问题、家庭解体问题、婚姻自由问题、独身问题、宗教问题、道德问题、文艺问题、教育问题，以及男女平权、男女参政、男女参军等问题，几乎都是普通人一生中会遇到的各种问题。其思想博大精深，几乎代表了整个希腊的文化，被英国评为*影响力的20本学术书之一。

《沉思录》是古罗马皇帝马克·奥勒留留给世人的伟大著作。书中，奥勒留用一些道德格言和个人思考记录了其身居宫廷和面对乱世的深切感悟，影响和启发了无数人。

综观梁氏一生， 从对历史发展的影响说， 他在戊戌前后的十年和晚年从事著述是主要的。 他是近代维新派的领袖人物， 又是一位启蒙思想家和近代学术文化的拓者。 从 １９１８ 年起， 是梁启超专心从事著述的十年。 １９１８ 年他即奋力著 《 中国通史》 ， 因用功过度致吐血数次。 １９１９ 年， 他在欧洲考察了一年。 １９２０ 年初回国后， 集中力量从事著述和讲学， 以近代观写下了大量论著， 著名的有 《 清代学术概论》 《 中国近三百年学术史》 《 中国历史研究法》 及其 《 补编》 《 墨子学案》 《 先秦政治思想史》 《 儒家哲学》《 中国文化史;社会组织篇》 《 国学门书要目及其读法》 《 古书真伪及其年代》《 要籍解题及其读法》 等。 本书的研究方法 是把梁氏的史学成就分为前期 （１９世纪末至 ２０ 世纪初）和后期 （晚年著述）两个阶段， 以求更清晰地显示他思想和学术演的脉络； 以分析代表性论著为主， 并与其他成果结合论述， 力求揭示他作为杰出史家具有深刻意义的贡献。

本书系统阐释了张立文教授的学术人生，分别论述了生命的磨炼、生命的考验、生命再煎熬、生命的觉醒，生命学术的起始、曲折与探索等内容，充分展现了老一辈学人的学术成长和发展的历程。

本书分为三部分，*部分是访谈录：与大师面对面，收了苏珊·哈克、冯赖特等世界著名哲学家的访谈录8篇。第二部分是交往实录：体会与感悟，是作者陈波所记述的他与西方分析哲学家的交往和他对他们思想的理解，共10篇。第三部分是国际研讨会纪实，收了8篇国际研讨会纪实。

在中日启蒙思想这一主题下，本书以历史的纵向变化和时代的横向关联为坐标，以严复与福泽谕吉这两位中日近代具有代表性的启蒙思想家为中心，分列时代篇、文化篇、思想篇和实践篇，从不同的方面和维度，系统地对中日近代启蒙思想行了透视和比较，呈现了两位启蒙思想家的复杂图像、相通性和独自性，作者在不少问题上都提出了自己的见解和观，是一部较早展中日启蒙思想比较的学术专著。

道学是人类古老的、系统的“大成智慧学”。道学以“ 自然无为”为核心价值，以“逍遥游”的人生境界为目标。本书作者中国管理哲学人葛荣晋教授通过该书分二十讲讲解了道家哲学的精妙，揭秘了老子、庄子、张良 、葛洪的人生智慧，解释了大型现代企业的管理秘密，化解人类冲突困境。

前中国佛教协会名誉会长本焕长老是当代中国佛教著名高僧、佛门泰斗和禅门尊宿。长老一生活了106岁，出家84年，弘法度人无数。作为当代佛教界的一代宗师，本焕长老一直以身垂范，作四众楷模。他熟悉中国传统文化，精通佛学，道心坚固，戒律精严，懂得管理，对自己要求严格，数十年如一日刻苦修行，深受四众尊崇。可以说，本焕长老的一生，就是真正的佛系人生。 本书起名《佛系人生》，是希望从根本上纠正大家对“佛系”二字的误会，让读者通过对这位传奇法师的理解，对他的智慧的感悟，真正读懂什么是佛系人生的大智慧。

当代学者倾向于将加缪视为一名“现代人”。但加缪曾经说过，对他个人而言，希腊才是西方名副其实的*选择，只有希腊化时期的思想才拥有一套完全不受传统束缚的体系。 加缪认为，同样生活在历史的转折上，当代人应该重新审视*初在古希腊哲学和基督教思想中表达过的问题，因为它们反映出在转折时期，人类生活应该如何在政治、宗教、科学和哲学上重新定位。 本书是理解加缪思想的一把钥匙。因为在加缪一生众多充满哲理性的文学作品中，写来写去、始终围绕的就是本书的研究主题——人类生活的基本问题。
