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 Finally, in an extended preface and in appendices drawn from Berlin's unpublished writings, he exhibits some of the biographical sources of Berlin's lifelong preoccupation with liberalism.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.
##中英一起看的。讀完瞭,大受啓發大受震撼,把自由的概念啊,形成啊,政體啊分析地好清楚啊!雖然有一些部分還可能不是很懂。讀完挺佩服John Mill的????摘一句不錯的話:“to realize the relative validity of one‘s conviction’s and stand for them unflinchingly is what distinguishes a civilized man from a barbarian.”
評分##伯林是個思想史的好老師,是少有的會像演講稿一樣安排內容的思想史作者,總是清晰地告訴讀者他要討論的是什麼問題。最愛的一篇是The Birth of Greek Individualism. 前麵的編輯手記一定要讀,非常贊!
評分##四年前讀過Two Concepts of Liberty,伯林也在不知不覺中影響著我的很多思考方式。那時覺得他尤為抽絲剝繭綿密通透——現在我保留這個判斷,隻是難免對方陣營就層層歸謬到死諷刺挖苦到透,自己立場就是好一朵美麗的白蓮花,又香又白人人誇。。。
評分##Practical Philanthropy
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##讀Berlin就仿佛是一個英國老紳士在你對麵,語調冷靜剋製,但藏不住厚重的情懷。自由四論。還是要相信一些使人生之為人的原則,不管遙不遙遠。
