In 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of
Edinburgh, had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some
2000 years prior:
"A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a
permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until
the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from
the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the

标 题: 朱学勤——学术界的又一个“汪晖”?(全文)
发信站: 水木社区 (Thu Jul 8 14:11:42 2010), 站内

自有良心的媒体和学术界人士深入开展揭批学霸、学奸、学贼汪晖的工作以来,成绩突
出,形势喜人。到了今天,可以说汪氏的问题已经无所逃罪天下,可以立刻盖棺论定,
直接开除出学界了。笔者生性愚钝,见事不明,不仅未能参与到这个伟大的运动中去,
最初还一再为汪某辩护,是非颠倒,黑白不分,如今思之,惭恨不已。如今总算如梦初
醒,回头是岸,想要为打汪晖运动出一把力,但揭批汪晖的,从林毓生这样的老牌名宿
,到王彬彬等中坚学者,以及vivo等青年才俊不计其数,宏文妙笔如漫天星斗,又如黄
河泛滥,一发而不可收拾。多笔者一个不多,少笔者一个不少。好在一个汪晖倒下去,
千百个汪晖站起来。像汪晖这样隐藏得很深的伪学者名流还是很多的。在打倒汪晖后,
深入揭批学界问题已经成为刻不容缓的急务,笔者愿为此略尽绵薄之力。今天要谈的就
是又一个汪晖式的伪学者——朱学勤!

除了Athenian外,Woodside也是很不错的,而且这两个学校管招生的Dean彼此很熟。
另外对楼上说的有一点小有异议,Athenian之外的非宗教(Independent)寄宿高中
在弯曲还是很有几个的,比Athenian好的也有。一般非宗教比宗教的寄宿高中要贵一
点,贵的有到$57,58K一年的(含食宿费)。

Euthyphro. Why have you left the Lyceum, Socrates? and what are you doing in
the Porch of the King Archon? Surely you cannot be concerned in a suit
before the King, like myself?
Socrates. Not in a suit, Euthyphro; impeachment is the word which the
Athenians use.
Euth. What! I suppose that some one has been prosecuting you, for I cannot
believe that you are the prosecutor of another.
Soc. Certainly not.
Euth. Then some one else has been prosecuting you?

朱学勤的学风问题——以《道德理想国的覆灭》为例

《道德理想国的覆灭——从卢梭到罗伯斯庇尔》是著名学者朱学勤的博士论文。该书
1994年由上海三联书店出版第一版;2003年由该书店再版。最近据朱学勤称可能再出第
三版。该书是朱学勤呕心沥血多年之作,朱学勤在原“序”中说:“ ‘可怜荒垅穷泉
骨,曾有惊天动地文’……以此敬献我同时代人中的启蒙者、牺牲者,也算是一份迟到
多年的报答。”取得博士学位后,朱学勤即离开了卢梭研究领域,投身于一个更宏阔、
更富于挑战性的学术空间。但是,《道德理想国的覆灭》这本书,却是奠定朱学勤学术

Why do once-successful societies ossify and decline?
Hundreds of reasons have been adduced for the fall of Rome and the end of
the Old Regime in 18th-century France. Reasons run from inflation and
excessive spending to resource depletion and enemy invasion, when historians
attempt to understand the sudden collapse of the Mycenaeans, the Aztecs,

这个城邦在战争中,背叛了雅典投靠敌人,之后雅典血洗了城邦,以妇女和儿童为奴。
后世看来如此优雅的人像柱,在古希腊表达的是对背叛城邦的惩罚。

然后开车回到迪斯多摩小镇的旅馆。
新同学正好刚吃完早餐。
把旅馆的帐结了,拿了行李出发。
现在开车前往德尔斐小镇(Delphi)。
开不了一会儿大概11:00左右就到了。
先简单说一下德尔菲吧。
德尔菲是古希腊最重要的神谕处(Oracle),也就是接受神的旨意的地方。
在古希腊神话中,众神之王宙斯(Zeus)为了确定大地的中心,从东西两端放飞两只神
鹰。
神鹰相向翱翔,最后在德尔斐相会,宙斯由此断定德尔斐是大地的中心,或者叫做“大
地的肚脐”。
正是在这里,宙斯的儿子,也就是太阳神阿波罗(Apollo),杀死了盘踞在此处的“巨
蟒”(Python)。
所以人们在此处修建祭坛来祭祀阿波罗。
后来人们也在此占卜以求得到神的旨意。
除了重要的宗教意义以外,德尔菲还是每四年一次的皮提亚运动会(Pythian Games)
的举办场地。
古希腊一共有四个著名的运动会,每年轮流举行其中的一个。
最著名的就是大家都知道的奥林匹克运动会(Olympic Games),排名第二的就是这个
皮提亚运动会了。

Naval flag signalling undoubtably developed in antiquity in order to
coordinate naval action of multiple vessels. In the Peloponnesian War (431
– 401 BCE) squadrons of Athenian galleys were described by Thucydides as
engaging in coordinated maneuvers which would have required some kind of
communication;[1] there is no record of how such communication was done but
flags would have been the most likely method.
