章节摘录

版权页：   In those years ofrebuilding after the Taiping Rebellion, my father remarried and had three sons and three daughters; but his second wife, weakened by so many childbirths （two ofwhich were twins）, died in 1878. My father then decided not to remarry, in order to give himself less ofa familly burden and a greater measure of freedom of movement. So he remained unmarried for more than eleven years. In the meantime, my father had developed a strong interest in the study of Chinese geography, especially in the geography of the Chinese frontiers, an interest which had originated during those years when he was a student at the Lung-men Academy in Shanghai. He continued this study largely because of the eventful changes of his time-the important and rapidly changing international situation in the Far East. My father recorded that he was greatly shocked by the fact that the officialdom and even the intelligentsia were quite ignorant ofthe geography ofthe world, the geography ofthe Chinese frontiers, and in particular the geography of the three northeastern provinces now called Manchuriao. So he was determined to make it his own life work to study the geographical frontiers of the country. After devoting a few more years to the ordering of the troublesome domestic affairs ofhis large family, my father deaded to fiee the limited atmosphere ofthe clan and the local community, and to go to Peking seeking his own future in a wider world. In 1881, at the age of forty, he borrowed ioo silver dollars from a merchant cousin and sailed from Shanghai to Tientsin whence to Peking. From Peking, armed only with two letters of introduction, he travelled forty-two days into Manchuria and amved at Ning-ku-t'a, the headquarters of the Imperial Commissioner, Wu Ta-ch'eng, who was a great scholar by his own right, an archeologist and a statesman. My father told Commissioner Wu that he had not come to seek office or employment. He wanted only his permission and a passport to travel throughout Manchuria and to study the geography of the frontiers. Wu Ta-ch'eng was greatly impressed by my father, whom he took with him on his travels and official missions, especially on those occasions when he met the Russian commissar for the resettlement of the international boundary in 1882. In the same year Wu Ta-ch'eng officially appointed him a member of his Secretariat. Shortly thereafter, Commissioner Wu, without the knowledge of my father, sent to the throne a special memorial recommending my father, Hu Ch'uan, to the government as a man with unique qualifications for important service to the State. That recommendation was a great surprise to my father, who became greatly attached to Wu Ta-ch'eng, and was to assist him in many of his important missions in the years to come.

•   读过唐德刚先生译注的《胡适口述自传》中文版，但胡适先生的口述和整理最早都是英文的形式，这个本子的史料意义也正在此。加之胡先生英文水平上佳，读之饶有趣味。
•   这部书是英文版的胡适口述自传，还没看呢，不过精装书做得挺扎实，排印字体也适当，以后慢慢学习吧。林语堂评价胡适的英文很漂亮。
•   感谢当当特价让我得以实现购买这书，英文胡适自述除了了解胡适生平还能学习纯正英语，非常有价值。
•   没怎么查词典，比想象的容易读懂。读自传容易了解作者的真实思想，总看别人口里的胡适，该看看自己描述的~
•   李慎之先生说：“20世纪是鲁迅的世纪，21世纪是胡适的世纪。”这就不难理解我为何在推荐了鲁迅之后紧接着推荐胡适了。中国近现代学者中，我最敬仰的两个人是陈寅恪和胡适。至于《陈寅恪集》，我估计大多数人跟我一样，就算买了回来也很难有毅力读完，所以还是推荐另一本书好了：《陈寅恪的最后20年》。至于胡适，我本应推荐《胡适文存》才对，可惜买不到，季羡林主编的《胡适全集》倒是将其囊括其中，可是3860元的定价又足以把人雷得里焦外嫩，不如推荐唐德刚执笔的这两本书好了。后一本书其实是前一本书的序言。大师写大师，珠与椟，传与注，皆为瑰宝。《容忍与自由：胡适读本》是我见过的胡适选集中较好的一部，一并推荐。唐德刚写的其他几本书，比如《晚清七十年》、《袁氏当国》，也都是绝对的佳作。

•   唐德刚版的《胡适口述自传》在大陆风行十数年，但是谁人注意到该版本是唐译呢？中文版加了过多的解读，对于一般人来说确实很好，但是如果想自己读胡适，恐怕还是英文原文和未释版的好。胡适的英文很好，读起来也不艰涩，值得推荐~~~
