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.

看到地图的内容,您又会想问.这是谁,在什么时候描绘的?这儿描绘的是北京吗?什么时候描绘的?有什么含义呢?很遗憾,究竟是谁描绘的我并不清楚.我清楚的是这儿描绘的的确是北京,或者也称为"北平".描绘的含义我想每个人的理解都不一样,熟悉一段历史的人或许更容易参透.

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. * f! ?. W ?/ Z+ |! h. v) [1 ]6 g
Louis Aubaret commanded the French vessel 'Pregent' in the battle fleet of Admiral Charner. The present maps detail the chronology of the advance of a contingent of French forces from the Taku forts to Yuanmingyuan (The Summer Palace) and the details of all the camps and actions.

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. 2 \) v" o P+ q4 p

此外,再奉送一张已经传阅无数遍的清漪园照.只是我发的图片大些.非个人扫描,收集来自于网络.之前又看到对清漪园这幅照片的拍摄者有疑问之类的.我不太清楚我发的是谁所拍摄的.照片的说明也只是据传为比托.但并没有肯定说就是.
