From Emperor to Citien is the
autobiography of Pu Yi, the man who
was the last emperor of China. A
unique memoir of the first half of the
20th century as seen through the eyes
of one born to be an absolute
monarch, the book begins with the
author's vivid account of the last,
decadent days of the Ching Dynasty,
and closes with an introspective
self-portrait of the last Ching emperor
transformed into a retiring scholar
and citizen of the People's Republic
of China.
In detailing the events of the fifty
years between his ascension to the
throne and the final period of his life
as a quiet-living resident of Beijing,
Pu Yi reveals himself to be first and
foremost a survivor, caught up in the
torrent of global power struggles and
world conflict that played itself out
on the Asian continent through many
decades of violence and upheaval.
This firsthand description of the
dramatic events of Pu Yi's life was the
basis for the intemationally acclaimed
1987 Bemardo Bertolucci film The
Last Emperor which was named Best
Picture of the Year by the American
Academy of Motion Picture Arts and
Sciences. From Emperor to Citizen
readily lends itself to cinematic
adaptation as a personal narrative of
continuously significant and revea-
ling episodes.
Becoming emperor and then
forced to abdicate with the
establishment of the Republic of
China in 1911, all before he is seven
years old, Pu Yi continues to live in
the Forbidden City for another
decade, still treated as the Son of
Heaven by the moribund Ching court,
but in reality a virtual prisoner, with
little genuine human contact apart
from his beloved nurse Mrs. Wang,
his teacher Chen Pao-shen and his
English tutor Reginald Johnston.
When at the age of nineteen Pu Yi
is finally forced to vacate his isolated
existence within the Forbidden City,
he begins his long odyssey as the
dependent of the occupying imperial
Japanese regime, first in Tientsin, and
eventually installed as "emperor" of
the Japanese puppet state styled
Manchukuo in China's northeast
provinces. With the defeat of Japan
and the end of the Second World War,
Pu Yi faces a very uncertain future as
he is shunted off to Russia for five
years before retuming to a new China
transformed by revolution, where he
is confined in the Fushun War
Criminal Prison. Here he undergoes
several years of rehabilitation,
"learning how to become a human
being," as he calls it, before receiving
an official pardon and being allowed
to finally live as an ordinary citizen of
Beijing.
This autobiography is the culmi-
nation of a unique and remarkable
life, told simply, directly and frankly
by a man whose circumstances and
experiences were like no other.
具体描述
读后感
是在看了《末代皇帝》的电影后，找来了这本溥仪的自传《我的前半生》，可以说溥仪在我以前的认识中就是傀儡二字，除此之外，没有任何形容词，无意中看了《末代皇帝》的电影让我对这个人充满了复杂的情绪，更确切的说应该是同情吧，也加深了我想更深入的了解他本人的兴趣，看完...
评分 评分我一直在想，溥仪到底有没有说真话。 这本书带有很强的传奇色彩，所以还是很吸引人的。但不得不说，溥仪的那些口号，那些批判，有着强烈的XX色彩。我们有理由相信，他在写作这本书的时候是处在某种压力之下，或者，带有自保的心理。 看溥仪这个人，本事没多少，但是非常善于权...
评分熬夜看完的一本书，一本有名的奇书，末代皇帝的自传。 其实这本书的作者是两个人，除了溥仪外，还有一个未署名的作者：李文达。此人是群众出版社的编辑，此书是他在溥仪写的书稿的基础上结合各种资料全面重写的，当时未署名，完全是出于政治方面的考虑。 全书共九章，分别是...
评分李文达是这本书的“捉刀人” 应该是基本史实。当然他是基于抚顺战犯管理所时期由傅仪口述，傅杰执笔的《前半生》（自传体悔罪思想报告之类的东西）。但是后面成书，李文达的工作是至关重要的。 因为即使经过初步整理，原《前半生》依然是“很多事情记不清，说不清，只是自己的...

很好的书。结合末代皇帝这部电影来看。
评分1.17-4.7，疫情期间英语学习。《我的前半生》英译本，潘家园买的。没看过中文原版。兼学英语和历史。跌宕起伏，悲剧人生，以及重新做人。在后半部分，一直怀疑一个人真的能被改造吗？如果是真的，那我党思想改造的本事太大了。如果是真的，那最后两节让人感动得想流泪——特赦和回到北京，以及那个最后才揭露的真相。
评分不知馋了多少水份：）
