章节摘录

版权页：   插图：    Another amazing contribution by Liang Sicheng during the World War II was his suggestion that the American Air Force not bomb the two Japanese cities of Kyoto and Nara in order to preserve ancient architecture there.American officers did not understand why Liang Sicheng wanted to protect a country hostile to China.Liang's brother and Lin's brother were killed in the war against the Japanese.But Liang said the architecture belonged to the whole human race,not just a nation,and that those very old pieces of architecture would be irreplaceable.His suggestion was adopted by the Allied Forces. After the war,Liang Sicheng set up the architecture department of Tsinghua University in 1946.He was also a member of the consulting panel that designed the United Nations headquarters in New York. At the beginning of the People's Republic of China,both Liang Sicheng and Lin Huiyin were respected by the communist leaders.Lin Huiyin was involved in the design of the national emblem and the Monument to the People's Heroes in Tiananmen Square.She was always a strong support to Liang Sicheng and often provided inspiration.However,she had suffered a lung problem since she was young,and she died in 1955 at age 51.She died young,but perhaps this was fortunate for her,since she escaped the sufferings of the "cultural revolution" in 1966-1976.Her husband was not so fortunate.

用户评论 (总计4条)

•   非常厚的一本，没拆包装的时候还以为当当给送错了，因为摸起来它是普通两本书的厚度！活动期间买的，物超所值了！内容非常详实，配有各种古今图片（好多很少见到的老照片）、作者自己拍摄的图片、步行的路线图……比如介绍恭王府就配了恭亲王奕昕的照片(p262)，一本在手，什么都齐了。只匆匆翻了翻，就已经完全能感受到作者的辛苦和用心。虽然是英文的，但是很好读。强烈推荐给喜欢北京、喜欢胡同、喜欢旅游的英文爱好者们。小瑕疵：关键历史人物有的注明汉字的名字，比如司徒雷登John Leighton Stuart(p434)、庄士敦Fleming Johnston(p321)；有的就不注明，比如溥杰的日本妻子Saga Hiro (p402)，上网查了下，原来就是著名的嵯峨 浩，可是有多少中国人看到Saga Hiro能知道她就是嵯峨 浩呢？还有就是有几页历史背景、历史人物介绍是白字印在黑底上，关键词浅咖色——浅咖色的字在黑底上是不太好读的，不是吗？而且黑色的纸上除了用荧光笔之外，是没办法做笔记、写心得的——写了也看不清啊。
•   英语专业的，就需要多看这样的书
•   初版有些拼写性错误，完全不能掩盖内容的top good!!!当然有些内容没有加进来，比如每一条胡同的内容较少，当然都被拆了，无从考证，不是作者的事。从这本书可以看到很多很真实的官方史料上看不到的东西。
•   喜欢老北京的可以看看
