内容概要

　　自元代以来，无论是王公大臣、富商巨贾、还是文人学士、普通百姓，都住在大大小小的四合院中。很多人都对四合院有着模糊的印象，但北京四合院的确切定义又是什么？这个问题在本书中，便能够得到满意的答案。
　　《北京四合院（英文版）》从多维的视角对四合院进行了阐述。开篇对合院住宅的演变，到元大都到明清北京城的四合院，做了概述。四合院的基本格局部分，对四合院进行了类型界定，如四合院的并联组合方式、带花园的四合院，以及四合院的庭院景观。第三部分主要是四合院的建筑构成，包括台基、屋身大木做、外墙、屋顶、外檐内檐、家具陈设等，条理分明，叙述明晰。然后是四合院中正房、厢房等房屋类型的分布，以及居者的身份界定。第五部分则是四合院的建造施工，石作、砖作、瓦作等等，非常详尽。
　　除此之外，《北京四合院（英文版）》后半部分的篇幅，采用了实例的方式，对四合院的居住文化，予以直观表达。与前文中的理论部分，相辅相成。如清代经典府宅四合院撷英，孚王府、恭王府、崇礼宅、张之洞宅、纪昀宅等。近现代文化名人故居的四合院例说，则选录了鲁迅故居、老舍故居、齐白石故居、梅兰芳故居等。在两部分四合院实例之后，本书又对四合院的文化内涵和生活情韵，如风水禁忌、伦理秩序、雅居生活等方面做了适度探讨。

　　There are causes and effects behind the trends of all ages， which seem to contain unavoidable factors. Fortunately， in our times， an awareness of national culture has grown in China as well. And it is in the modern spirit of pursuing scholarly studies to collect material objects and do research about the past Efforts should be made today to seek new development in the bloodstream of tradition.　　As Chinese buildings represent a kind of engineering technology that lasted for over two thousand years， they form an independent art system. The Chinese culture finds its expression in many buildings， which constitute a large portion of the Chinese art legacy. We must respect the brilliant ancient Chinese culture， we cannot afford to neglect researching the history of these Chinese buildings if we are determined to rejuvenate our nation and carefully sort out and protect the cultural relics of our past generations.　　If we attempt to awaken society by providing objective academic research， we can contribute to protecting cultural relics and can gradually reduce the damage to them. Even if such a work is a force against the trend of times， there must be no delay， as it is similar to rescuing valuable articles and precious paintings from a raging fire. It is a sacred duty to cherish and protect these valuable Chinese cultural relics.　　——Liang Sicheng
