具體描述
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 Finally, in an extended preface and in appendices drawn from Berlin's unpublished writings, he exhibits some of the biographical sources of Berlin's lifelong preoccupation with liberalism.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.
用戶評價
##隻讀瞭其中的“兩種自由”一篇。前麵的梳理雖然dense，但是條理清晰，且有效地展開瞭兩者間的張力，很厲害。就是最後強調negative liberty，並且認為這會促成文化多元，這樣的論點和論述過程讓我多少有些不敢恭維。其實關鍵還在於Berlin當時心裏要解決的問題。

評分##按柏林，古希臘的個人主義顯於公元前4-3世紀拐角。但是令人睏惑的問題是，從柏拉圖到芝諾等人的轉變過程中，到底發生瞭什麼。雖然柏林討論著古希臘個人主義，但他引用的卻是羅斯托夫采夫等人，而非古朗士與格羅茲。後者從城邦內部社會生活的變化中，討論瞭個人主義是如何在城邦興起的。至於結尾以貴族抱怨城邦生活為例，實際上有些不適閤。雅典內部紛爭是從梭倫時期就一直蟄伏著，而公元前5世紀下葉以降的戰爭，損耗的正是富裕階層。日益趨平化的社會圖景，對於往昔富裕者而言，如若無法通過政治獲取權力與聲望，那麼以巧妙的方式迴歸自我，似乎是很直接的選擇。
評分##從南校運過來的書。導修前重讀two concepts of liberty
評分##書果然得多讀幾遍。其實很多話都是重復，就是把一句話換一種方式再說一遍，不過這樣對讀者很友好。伯林的論述中有個有意思的問題：自然科學方法論與形而上學看起來是對手，然而就這麼聯手瞭~

評分##因為哲學課讀的書越來越看不懂/不感興趣瞭所以我決定每本下麵編些不相乾的鬍話，整理的時候就感覺好像自己真有收獲一樣。水手需要預測暴風雨的時候，會跑到甲闆上用鼻子吸一吸，再不濟就伸舌頭嘗一嘗，吉兆是仍然鹹澀的海風，凶兆是壞血病夢境般溫柔甜蜜的鮮橙味。
