作者简介

暂缺《英语人文读本·英国篇》作者简介

内容简介

汉语中的“人文”意指人类社会的各种文化现象,语出《易·贲》:“文明以止,人文也。观乎天文,以察看时变;观乎人文,以化成天下。”在拉丁语中humanities主要指人性和教养.但随着人类文明史的延绵,人文在广义上不仅涉指社会现象和文化艺术。而且生成了包括哲学、经济学、政治学、史学、法学、文艺学、伦理学、语言学、文学等相对于自然科学的学科领域,称为人文学科(humanities)。《英语人文读本·英国篇》并不收录人文学科的研究著述,也不是罗列或展示当今社会中的万千气象。该书旨在引领读者避开当下喧嚣和浮躁的氛围,进入一种冷静的人文思考。本书收录的文章主题重经典意义和收藏价值。内容涉及伦理道德、宗教习俗、婚姻家庭、人际关系、大众文化、人文修养、心理健康、语言文学、经济政治、哲学美学等。写作体裁不限,包括议论文、散文、短篇自传、随笔、短篇小说等。每篇选文读来或是温馨甜蜜。或是发人深思,或是深情隽永,或是诙谐幽默,具有驱恶趋善.规谏或激励人生的精神作用。
