Shen-ming pressed down his pince-nez, cleared his throat, and said, "Mr.
Fang, what was it you were asking me that time?"
"When?" asked Hung-chien, bewildered.
"Before Miss Su came. "——Hung-chien could not recall——" It seems you were
asking me what philosophical questions I was studying, werent you?" To this usual question, Chu Shen-ming had a pat answer. Since Miss Su had not yet arrived, he had waited until now to show off.
"Oh, yes, yes."
"Strictly speaking, your statement has a slight fallacy. When a philosopher
encounters a question, his first step is to study the question. Is it a question or not? If its not, then its a pseudo-question which neednt and cant be solved. If it is a question, his second step is to study the solution. Is the traditional solution correct or should it be revised? You probably meant to ask not what question am I studying, but what question am I studying the solution of."
Fang Hung-chien was astounded, Tung Hsieh-chǖan was bored, and Miss Su was confused. "Marvelous!" exclaimed Hsin-mei. "A truly thorough analysis! Thats wonderful, wonderful! Hung-chien, youve studied philosophy, but you should be quite willing to take a back seat today. After such an excellent discussion, we should all have a glass."
At Hsin-meis insistence Hung-chien reluctantly took a couple of swallows,
saying, "Hsin-mei, I just muddled my way through a year in the philosophy department by reading a few assigned reference books. Before Mr. Chu I can only humbly ask for instruction."
Chu Shen-ming said, "Im unworthy! From what you say, Mr. Fang, it
seems you were taking the individual as a unit in reading philosophical works. That is only studying philosophers. At best its studying the history of philosophy, not philosophy itself. At most such a person could be a philosophy professor, but never a philosopher. I like using my own mind, not other peoples, to think. I read works of science and literature, but I never read works of philosophy unless I have to. A lot of so-called philosophers these days dont really study philosophy at all; they just study personalities of works in philosophy. Strictly speaking, they shouldnt be called philosophers, but rather philophilosophers. "
"Philophilosophers?" said Hung-chien. "Now thats an interesting term.
Did you coin that yourself?"
"Its a word someone saw in a book and told Bertie about, and Bertie told
me."
"Whos Bertie?"
"Russell."

評分(我們也得獨立地尋找自己的生活瞭,我們不奢求能找到很好的工作,隻要能實現自我價值,能夠憑著自己的知識、能力不再嚮父母親伸手,能夠自己養活自己,在目前的情況下就足夠瞭,這也是所有畢業生的心聲!不幸的是.你知道的太多.思考的太多瞭.因此纔有瞭這種不能為周圍人所理解的痛苦…..
評分京東的物流很給力,送貨的速度還不錯,商品的質量也可以接受,價格也能比較公道。你,值得擁有!超低的價格,超好的質量,超高的品質,感謝京東,有你陪伴,真好!不錯,很喜歡。
評分《圍城》是錢鍾書先生唯一的一部長篇小說,堪稱中國現當代長篇小說的經典。小說塑造瞭抗戰開初一類知識分子的群像,生動反映瞭在國傢特定時期,特殊人群的行為操守、以及睏惑。從另一個角度記述瞭當時的情景、氛圍。雖然有具體的曆史背景,但這部小說揭示的隻是人群的弱點,在今天依然能夠引起人們的共鳴。這本書是圍城的英文版,書的整體質量還不錯,但是沒有塑封,拿到手的時候有點髒髒的。書的排版還不錯。總體來說是比較滿意的。

評分書的右邊際寬窄不一,有些頁碼的文字印到邊,還沒看就大倒胃口。後麵的人慎拍。業界良心哪裏去瞭?
