具体描述
Liberty is a revised and expanded edition of the book that Isaiah Berlin regarded as his most important—Four Essays on Liberty, a standard text of liberalism, constantly in demand and constantly discussed since it was first published in 1969. Writing in Harper's, Irving Howe described it as "an exhilarating performance—this, one tells oneself, is what the life of the mind can be."
Berlin's editor Henry Hardy has revised the text, incorporating a fifth essay that Berlin himself had wanted to include. He has also added further pieces that bear on the same topic, so that Berlin's principal statements on liberty are at last available together in one volume. Finally, in an extended preface and in appendices drawn from Berlin's unpublished writings, he exhibits some of the biographical sources of Berlin's lifelong preoccupation with liberalism. These additions help us to grasp the nature of Berlin's "inner citadel," as he called it—the core of personal conviction from which some of his most influential writing sprung.

##其实 Berlin 说，Two Concepts 那篇文章，主要是历史性的辨析，而非哲学性的辨析。
评分##读Berlin就仿佛是一个英国老绅士在你对面，语调冷静克制，但藏不住厚重的情怀。自由四论。还是要相信一些使人生之为人的原则，不管遥不遥远。

评分昨天和刘擎老师就本书第39页里面的一段话争论了一下午，结果发现，我们使用的是不同的版本，而且不同版本之间有不少出入。后来，我致信伯林文集编辑Henry Hardy。他告诉我，重印本会不断纠正前面版本的错误，以下是他发给我的纠正目录：http://t.cn/RlluUU7 @2017-11-08 15:24:33
评分##与译林内容一致。除了删改字词
评分##初读会受益于伯林的强梳理能力，让对自由的讨论有起点可寻。但因为始终没有给出清晰哪怕很薄的界定，使得内部诸多不一致。如果采取“同情式”的理解，可能要回到他当时要揭示的价值多元论命题，当然这又是一个棘手的问题。

评分##伯林是个思想史的好老师，是少有的会像演讲稿一样安排内容的思想史作者，总是清晰地告诉读者他要讨论的是什么问题。最爱的一篇是The Birth of Greek Individualism. 前面的编辑手记一定要读，非常赞!
