1788THE CRITIQUE OF PRACTICAL REASONby Immanuel Kanttranslated by Thomas Kingsmill AbbottPREFACEThis work is called the Critique of Practical Reason, not of the pure practical reason, although its parallelism with the speculative critique would seem to require the latter term. The reason of this appears sufficiently from the treatise itself. Its business is to show that there is pure practical reason, and for this purpose it criticizes the entire practical faculty of reason. If it succeeds in this, it has no need to criticize the pure faculty itself in order to see whether reason in making such a claim does not presumptuously overstep itself (as is the case with the speculative reason). For if, as pure reason, it is actually practical, it proves its own reality a...

Modern Custom and Ancient Laws of Russiaby Maxime Kovalevsky1891Lecture IIIThe Past and Present of the Russian Village CommunityFew questions of history are debated in our days as that ofthe origin of village communities. French, English, and Germanscholars, to say nothing of Russians and Americans, havepublished whole volumes in order to prove either the existence ornon-existence of village communities in that period of evolutionwhich is generally known as patriarchal.The acute German observer, Baron Haxthausen, who was thefirst to describe to European readers the social and economiccharacter of the Russian mir, was probably quite unconscious ofthe literary movement to which he was to give rise by his two orthree sentences about the antiquity of the Russian agra...

Black RockA TALE OF THE SELKIRKSby Ralph ConnorINTRODUCTIONI think I have met "Ralph Conner." Indeed, I am sure I haveoncein a canoe on the Red River, once on the Assinaboine, and twice orthrice on the prairies to the West. That was not the name he gaveme, but, if I am right, it covers one of the most honest and genialof the strong characters that are fighting the devil and doing goodwork for men all over the world. He has seen with his own eyes thelife which he describes in this book, and has himself, for someyears of hard and lonely toil, assisted in the good influences whichhe traces among its wild and often hopeless conditions. He writeswith the freshness and accuracy of an eye-witness, with the style(as I think his readers will allow) of a real artist, a...　

Literary Boston As I Knew Itby William Dean HowellsAmong my fellow-passengers on the train from New York to Boston, when Iwent to begin my work there in 1866, as the assistant editor of theAtlantic Monthly, was the late Samuel Bowles, of the SpringfieldRepublican, who created in a subordinate city a journal of metropolitanimportance. I had met him in Venice several years earlier, when he wassuffering from the cruel insomnia which had followed his overwork on thatnewspaper, and when he told me that he was sleeping scarcely more thanone hour out of the twenty-four. His worn face attested the misery whichthis must have been, and which lasted in some measure while he lived,though I believe that rest and travel relieved him in his later years....

三生不有幸 作者：余宛宛楔子　　肃州乾热的黄泥地被太炀蒸晒出缕缕烟气，那氤氲的雾气是要迷蒙人双眼，定要让人头昏的。　　这一年头，极热、极热。　　稻作因天旱而收成不佳，而官府的开仓赈粮，又尚未拨放到肃州来。　　为了生存，纵是民风淳厚之地，沦为盗贼的百姓亦不在少数。　　「她可能是迷路了！」纪绫睁着古灵精怪的眼睛，菱红小嘴催促着旁边的男人：「师父，你和她说话啊！」　　「小姑娘，你爹娘呢？」身着灰色长袍的邱愁人，慈祥地问着那个蹲在枯树下的小女孩。　　「我到後园玩，被坏人捉走……看不到娘和爹……坏人在睡觉……我跑了出来……我不到爹娘……」小女孩哭到双眼都肿了起来，身上昂贵的薄绢衣料被磨破，露出颈间那串价值非凡的珠链。　　纪绫很好心地拿出身上的药膏，替小女孩手上磨出血痕的伤口上药。　　「很痛……」小女孩豆大的泪珠一颗颗地往下掉。...　

　　阴阳师——有鬼盗走玄象琵琶　　一说个奇妙男子的故事。　　若要打比方，故事中的男子，就像朵随风飘荡，悬浮在夜阑虚空的云。　　我们看不出飘浮在黑暗中的云朵，瞬息间形状会有什么变化，但持续注视，却会发现云朵已经在不知不觉中变形。明明是同一朵云，形状却无法分辨。　　这正是那样一个男子的故事。男子名为安倍晴明，是阴阳师。　　据说他生于延喜二十一（公元九二二）年，正是醍醐天皇的时代，不过，他的生卒年和此故事没有任何直接关系。或许不去判明生卒年为何时，反倒能增添故事的妙趣。　　总之，暂且不要在意这问题。　　我打算顺其自然，让故事随心所欲的发展。要叙述安倍晴明的故事，这种写法应是最恰当的。　　平安时代——是个暗昧（注：原文为此。）尚存的时代，当时有不少人对妖魔鬼怪的存在仍深信不疑。这时代，妖魔鬼怪不住在水远山遥的森林或深山穷谷中，无论是人、鬼、或阴魂，都同时存在于京城暗处，...

1796年11月，俄国女皇叶卡特琳娜二世去世了，她的一生中，幸运与不幸，痛苦与欢乐总是同时存在。她的身世，她的遭遇，她的性格和思想无不充满了令人疑惑的矛盾：在她67年的生命历程中，前33年完全是一个可怜的被损害者的形象，童年时得不到父母的垂爱，15岁就离乡背井从普鲁士来到遥远而陌生的俄国，身不由己地成为了俄国未来沙皇的夫人，在伊丽莎白的严密监视下度过了18年痛苦和孤寂的漫长岁月；但她在登上皇位后的34年里，却“集一切尊贵、幸福和威严于一身”，成为统治者的主宰，君主中的君主。她崇尚自由主义，说自己有一个“共和主义者”的灵魂，甚至聘用有“雅各宾派”①之称的拉阿尔普担任皇孙的家庭教师；但她对法国资产阶级革命却深恶痛绝，称之为“一千二百个头的多头蛇”，还血腥镇压了普加乔夫领导的农民起义。她公开保护外国作家和艺术，同伏尔泰、狄德罗等著名学者以朋友相称，长期保持通讯联系，购买外国艺术品...　

　　这就是思哲的说法。她说：“你还行。”　　我行。我喜欢被人鼓励，尤其是一个漂亮的女人，思哲很漂亮。　　她有着一双美丽的大眼睛，黑黑的眸子，眼白与众不同，是青色的，而且总是水汪汪——很久以来，作家已经不用水汪汪的大眼睛来形容漂亮的女人了，一是这样会很传统，还因为自从有了林忆莲以后，人们普遍认为大眼睛不再美丽了，至少不是惟一。二是水汪汪容易造成歧义，是说女人充满迷茫的诱惑呢，还是她总在哭？　　她哭了。后来哭的，一开始并没有哭，也没有哭的准备。　　我使劲招手叫服务生，要纸巾。　　我有些激动，这回我真的有把握，一开始就让你很投入，像她对我有信心一样，因为这是一个让人心动的真实故事。坐在亚运村阳光广场一楼的星巴克咖啡屋里，很多人和我一起看她流泪，服务生一点不惊慌，也许他们已经习惯漂亮女人在咖啡屋里流泪了。　　这是一个进步，漂亮女人不再躲在厨房或卧室里流泪，在公共场所公然...　

The Maiden1One evening at the end of May a middle-aged man was walking home from Shaston to the village of Marlott in the Vale of Blackmoor．His legs were thin and weak，and he could not walk in a straight line．He had an empty egg-basket on his arm， and his hat was old and worn．After a while he passed an elderly parson riding a grey horse．‘Good night，’said the man with the basket．‘Good night，Sir John，’said the parson．After another step or two the man stopped and turned round to speak to the parson．‘Now，sir，last market-day we met on this road at the same time，and I said “Good night”and you answered“Good night，Sir John，”as you did just now．’‘I did，’said the parson．‘And once before that，almost a month ago．’...　

　　80年代初，北方的城市,面对着10多岁那种蓬勃的青春，那里的萧瑟，太让人沮丧。　　我就是那些孩子中的一个。长大后终于可以离开家，辗转于国内的大城市，以及国际的大都市，有时会很惊讶在人家繁华似锦的80年代，我们的青春却阻塞在与青春痘的奋斗中，不是不惆怅的。好在——　　好在有那么一些事情可以幻想。　　那时候，电影院里上演着一部电影，叫做《鼓手》。我和少年伙伴安偶然溜进去，看到银幕上的人和生活，看到银幕上秀美的张国荣，怔住了。　　银幕上的张国荣，就是片名中的鼓手，第一主角，影片大约的意思是说他为了实现买套架子鼓做鼓手的想法，克服重重困难终于如愿以偿，其中当然少不了单纯的初恋。（时隔久远，不知内容是否准确，记忆有时会自动删减和混淆往事，不是我所能做的。）　　当时我的第一个强烈反应是：为什么他长得那么好看？为什么他们长得那么好看？这让10多岁的我照着镜子找不到答案。为什么都穿牛...

我二十一岁时，正在云南插队。陈清扬当时二十六岁，就在我插队的地方当医生。我在山下十四队，她在山上十五队。有一天她从山上下来，和我讨论她不是破鞋的问题。那时我还不大认识她，只能说有一点知道。她要讨论的事是这样的：虽然所有的人都说她是一个破鞋，但她以为自己不是的。因为破鞋偷汉，而她没有偷过汉。虽然她丈夫已经住了一年监狱，但她没有偷过汉。在此之前也未偷过汉。所以她简直不明白，人们为什么要说她是破鞋。如果我要安慰她，并不困难。我可以从逻辑上证明她不是破鞋。如果陈清扬是破鞋，即陈清扬偷汉，则起码有一个某人为其所偷。如今不能指出某人，所以陈清扬偷汉不能成立。但是我偏说，陈清扬就是破鞋，而且这一点毋庸置疑。陈清扬找我证明她不是破鞋，起因是我找她打针。这事经过如下：农忙时队长不叫我犁田，而是叫我去插秧，这样我的腰就不能经常直立。认识我的人都知道，我的腰上有旧伤，而且我身高在一米...
