回到历史有时很简单,当你在欣赏某件历史遗存时,往往就已经与历史形成了交汇.甚至有时这些遗存还会告诉你一些事情. 2 h2 \* h# x; Y, q2 K6 m1 `! l

如果你给这样一幅简易的绘画,你会认为是什么呢?一张地图?一张方位图?还是某人随手的几笔勾勒?其实这就是一幅简易的地图.

The defeat of the Chinese Imperial forces in the 2nd Opium War (1856-1860) was secured by the final advance on Peking in the summer of 1860. The combined British and French forces re-captured the Taku forts at the mouth of the Pei-Ho river on 21st August and then advanced up-river, finally reaching Peking on 22nd Spetember 1860. With the allies arrival, the Emperor went into exile and the Summer Palace was burnt by the British.

再说太多,往往就显得没有什么价值了.只是当我们再面对历史遗存的时候,究竟该以怎样的心情和思想去观赏,往往比历史遗存本身的价值更重要. 6 F' f9 d) V# U
