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 Finally, in an extended preface and in appendices drawn from Berlin's unpublished writings, he exhibits some of the biographical sources of Berlin's lifelong preoccupation with liberalism.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.

##其實 Berlin 說，Two Concepts 那篇文章，主要是曆史性的辨析，而非哲學性的辨析。
評分##PT 101
評分##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##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。
評分昨天和劉擎老師就本書第39頁裏麵的一段話爭論瞭一下午，結果發現，我們使用的是不同的版本，而且不同版本之間有不少齣入。後來，我緻信伯林文集編輯Henry Hardy。他告訴我，重印本會不斷糾正前麵版本的錯誤，以下是他發給我的糾正目錄：http://t.cn/RlluUU7 @2017-11-08 15:24:33
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##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。
