A History of Science--Volume 2
Henry Smith Williams 试读
评分:8.7分he studies of the present book cover the progress of science from the close of the Roman period in the fifth century A.D. to about the middle of the eighteenth century. In tracing the course of events through so long a period, a difficulty becomes prominent which everywhere besets the historian in less degree—a difficulty due to the conflict between the strictly chronological and the topical method of treatment.

A Christmas Carol
Charles Dickens 试读
评分:8.7分The tale begins on Christmas Eve seven years after the death of Ebenezer Scrooge's business partner Jacob Marley. Scrooge is established within the first stave (chapter) as a greedy and stingy businessman who has no place in his life for kindness, compassion, charity, or benevolence. After being warned by Marley's ghost to change his ways, Scrooge is visited by three additional ghosts "each in its turn" who accompany him to various scenes with the hope of achieving his transformation. The first of the spirits, the Ghost of Christmas Past, takes Scrooge to the scenes of his boyhood and youth which stir the old miser's gentle and tender side by reminding him of a time when he was more innocent. The second spirit, the Ghost of Christmas Present, takes Scrooge to several radically differing scenes (a joy-filled market of people buying the makings of Christmas dinner, the family feast of Scrooge's near-impoverished clerk Bob Cratchit, a miner's cottage, and a lighthouse among other sites) in order to evince from the miser a sense of responsibility for his fellow man. The third spirit, the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, harrows Scrooge with dire visions of the future if he does not learn and act upon what he has witnessed. Scrooge's own neglected and untended grave is revealed, prompting the miser to aver that he will change his ways in hopes of changing these "shadows of what may be." In the fifth and final stave, Scrooge awakens Christmas morning with joy and love in his heart, then spends the day with his nephew's family after anonymously sending a prize turkey to the Crachit home for Christmas dinner. Scrooge has become a different man overnight, and now treats his fellow men with kindness, generosity, and compassion, gaining a reputation as a man who embodies the spirit of Christmas. The story closes with the narrator confirming the validity, completeness, and permanence of Scrooge's transformation.

续小五义
佚名 试读
评分:8.7分“续小五义”是古典名著“三侠五义”的续书之一,又名“忠烈续小五义传”、“三续忠烈侠义传”。最早可见光绪十七(1891年)辛卯年北京文光楼刊本。一百廿四回。不题署名。“续小五义”故事情节接“小五义”,接叙众英雄大破铜网阵,襄阳王潜逃,诸侠仍在江湖间诛锄盗贼,打太岁坊,破桃花寨,盗鱼肠剑,擒白菊花……最后拿获襄阳王,皇帝论功,众侠义皆受封赏,于是全书结束。在艺术成就上,“续小五义”和“小五义”疑似一个作者,比“三侠五义”原著要逊色些。故事情节曲折动人,富于变化,很能引起读者的悬念。语言口语化、大众化,运动不少方言土语,叙事写人恰到好处,鲁迅曾评价“三侠五义”及其续书,“绘声状物,甚有评话习气”。

续济公传
坑余生 试读
评分:8.7分‘续济公传’,清代坑余生所著。‘续济公传’虽名为续集,情节却完全可以独立于‘济公全传’之外而存在,其内容与人物形象,与‘全传’相比有较大的变化。续集叙述了济公率领弟子,劝导一批忠臣后裔和江湖义士,严惩卖国投降的奸臣和皇亲国戚,平定“大狄国”的内患,以保南宋江山“国泰民安”的种种故事。在这些故事中,济公的活动范围从市井社会拓展到整个朝野江湖,其所作为也从撮合男女美满姻缘、扶危济困、除怪降妖扩展到关系国家安危的军机大事,社会场景更为广阔,情节也特别丰富、曲折,引人入胜。济公的形象也从一个游戏人间行侠仗义的“颠憎”,逐渐演化成一个忠肝义胆、神机妙算、佛法无边的济世活佛。

遁甲演义(无注释版)
程道生 试读
评分:8.7分方术家往往把遁甲的起源推溯至黄帝玄女、周公旦和汉张子房。但真正从遁甲理论的建立来看,可能要晚至南北朝才开始完备,有信都芳的《遁甲经》和葛秘的《三元遁甲图》闻世,唐朝继续发展,至两宋时发展到高潮。在宋仁宗时代以杨维德为代表,对以往壬式理论作了系统的概括和总结。但自从陈抟邵雍发掘出先天、后天的易学观念,促使遁甲理论发生变革.并且将道家的符篆之法也融合了进去,以至向怪诞方向发展。 遁甲与六壬是相通的,只是各有所侧重。遁甲被人们更多地用于军事,它更多地引用了天文和季节历法的概念。并以九宫为基础,以三奇、六曜、八门、九星相配合,视其加临吉凶的情况,配以九宫而起符使,作为活动趋避之法。大量引用道家的符篆咒语,是《遁甲演义》的一个特点。《四库全书提要》说:“是编旨约词该,于用奇置闰之要,颇详具。至论本命行年,谓欲乘本局中吉星生旺,其说亦他书所未及。”本书不取《遁甲符应经》谈兵之法,故为后世言遁甲者习用。
