本书集中讨论了时尚文化的炫美内涵、历史演变、主要特征、表现内容和评判标准等问题，包括从历时性角度描述时尚文化在历史上的发展进程，分析在肉身转向的后现代氛围下流行时尚与人的肉身感性存在之间的密切联系，比较流行时尚与经典艺术的异同之处，说明流行时尚在炫耀生命活力、性感惑力、气质魅力等方面的本质功能，并提出了评价流行时尚的一些基本原则。在涉及时尚文化这一议题时，目前国内的大多数教材偏重于实用技巧和现象描述；注重理论分析的学术作品则往往从文化研究的角度出发，侧重于把流行时尚当作俗文化加以批判，很少充分肯定时尚文化的重要意义。本教材则从哲学美学的角度出发，把时尚文化当作一种大众炫美现象加以探讨，在指出其负面内涵的同时，又充分肯定其积极意义。其中有不少观点和概念系作者首度提出，力求语言生动活泼，分析深入浅出，在确保教学使用和学术性的同时，兼具一定的可读性和趣味性。

Such is the system which underlies the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius. Some knowledge of it is necessary to the right understanding of the book, but for us the chief interest lies elsewhere. We do not come to Marcus Aurelius for a treatise on Stoicism. He is no head of a school to lay down a body of doctrine for students; he does not even contemplate that others should read what he writes. His philosophy is not an eager intellectual inquiry, but more what we should call religious feeling. The uncompromising stiffness of Zeno or Chrysippus is softened and transformed by passing through a nature reverent and tolerant, gentle and free from guile; the grim resignation which made life possible to the Stoic sage becomes in him almost a mood of aspiration. His book records the innermost thoughts of his heart, set down to ease it, with such moral maxims and reflections as may help him to bear the burden of duty and the countless annoyances of a busy life. It is instructive to compare the Meditations with another famous book, the Imitation of Christ. There is the same ideal of self-control in both. It should be a man's task, says the Imitation, 'to overcome himself, and every day to be stronger than himself.' 'In withstanding of the passions standeth very peace of heart.' 'Let us set the axe to the root, that we being purged of our passions may have a peaceable mind.' To this end there must be continual self-examination. 'If thou may not continually gather thyself together, namely sometimes do it, at least once a day, the morning or the evening. In the morning purpose, in the evening discuss the manner, what thou hast been this day, in word, work, and thought.' But while the Roman's temper is a modest self-reliance, the Christian aims at a more passive mood, humbleness and meekness, and reliance on the presence and personal friendship of God. The Roman scrutinises his faults with severity, but without the self-contempt which makes the Christian 'vile in his own sight.' The Christian, like the Roman, bids 'study to withdraw thine heart from the love of things visible'; but it is not the busy life of duty he has in mind so much as the contempt of all worldly things, and the 'cutting away of all lower delectations.' Both rate men's praise or blame at their real worthlessness; 'Let not thy peace,' says the Christian, 'be in the mouths of men.' But it is to God's censure the Christian appeals, the Roman to his own soul. The petty annoyances of injustice or unkindness are looked on by each with the same magnanimity. 'Why doth a little thing said or done against thee make thee sorry? It is no new thing; it is not the first, nor shall it be the last, if thou live long. At best suffer patiently, if thou canst not suffer joyously.' The Christian should sorrow more for other men's malice than for our own wrongs; but the Roman is inclined to wash his hands of the offender. 'Study to be patient in suffering and bearing other men's defaults and all manner infirmities,' says the Christian; but the Roman would never have thought to add, 'If all men were perfect, what had we then to suffer of other men for God?' The virtue of suffering in itself is an idea which does not meet us in the Meditations. Both alike realise that man is one of a great community. 'No man is sufficient to himself,' says the Christian; 'we must bear together, help together, comfort together.' But while he sees a chief importance in zeal, in exalted emotion that is, and avoidance of lukewarmness, the Roman thought mainly of the duty to be done as well as might be, and less of the feeling which should go with the doing of it. To the saint as to the emperor, the world is a poor thing at best. 'Verily it is a misery to live upon the earth,' says the Christian; few and evil are the days of man's life, which passeth away suddenly as a shadow. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?*** ? "MARCUS AURELIUS ANTONINUS" was born on April 26, A.D. 121. His real name was M. Annius Verus, and he was sprung of a noble family which claimed descent from Numa, second King of Rome. Thus the most religious of emperors came of the blood of the most pious of early kings. His father, Annius Verus, had held high office in Rome, and his grandfather, of the same name, had been thrice Consul. Both his parents died young, but Marcus held them in loving remembrance. On his father's death Marcus was adopted by his grandfather, the consular Annius Verus, and there was deep love between these two. On the very first page of his book Marcus gratefully declares how of his grandfather he had learned to be gentle and meek, and to refrain from all anger and passion. The Emperor Hadrian divined the fine character of the lad, whom he used to call not Verus but Verissimus, more Truthful than his own name. He advanced Marcus to equestrian rank when six years of age, and at the age of eight made him a member of the ancient Salian priesthood. The boy's aunt, A

《忏悔录》这本书是卢梭晚年在迫害和种种指责、中伤下所写的悲愤之作，就首先具有强烈的抗争和自我辩护的色调。这一点他并不回避。但是他更强调的是，这完全是一部真害的赤裸裸的自我揭示之作。因为在他看来，只有真实的忏悔和揭示，才能达到自辩的目的。并且不仅如此，这种真实的忏悔还将为“研究人”这一崇高事业作出重要贡献。可以说，这三个目的：抗争、真实、为研究人做出范例，构成了《忏悔录》的基调、内容和高度。而在这三者中。真实性是关键的所在，也是不容易做到的。《忏悔录》的精彩之处和人们会向它提出的种种疑问，也都集中在这里。

　　《管子》绝非只讲利益，而是认为人只有在基本需要得到满足以后，才有能力开启精神、道德上的追求。“仓廪实则知礼节，衣食足则知荣辱”，就是要为人类的“义”和“利”建立次序，主张先现实后理想。这不但符合人性，更易知易行，有别于儒家舍利取义的一套理论。 　　“中信国学大典”之《管子》，学者赵善轩等在撰写导读，并对精彩段落、经典语句加以赏析与点评。因此，这是一个版本权威、评点精准、特色鲜明的《管子》新注，尤其适合普通国学爱好者阅读。
