Not since Wild Swans has Chinese history been so intimately encountered - through the stories of four sisters born between 1907 and 1914, a renowned historian examines a century of extraordinary change in Chinese culture and in women's lives. Now in their late eighties and early nineties, the four Chang sisters lived through a century of historic change in China. In this extraordinary work, assembled with the benefit of letters, diaries, family histories, poetry, journals and interviews, Annping Chin shapes the story of one family into a riveting chronicle that provides a unique insight into the old China and its transition into the new. From their father, the Chang sisters inherited reason and a belief in the virtues of modern education. From their mother they learned about the human spirit and the art of finding an appropriate path. The nurse-nannies - uneducated widows from the Hofei countryside - contributed their own opinions on modern ways. As the sisters grow up, one breaks with tradition to marry an actor, another marries one of China's greatest novelists; another, raised by her devout Buddhist grandaunt, is taught to be a rigorous practitioner of China's classical arts. The Chang sisters' prolific correspondence provides an intimate glimpse of private life, as well as a chronicle of the developments of the twentieth century, from prosperity to persecution, from foreign wars to Cultural Revolution. Four Sisters of Hofei is an intensely personal and sweeping story that illustrates the complex history of a complex culture.
上个周末,在阳光书店看见金安平女史的《合肥四姐妹》,见了一眼,就油然而生阅读的渴望。凭空而来。大概是写作对象和写作者的“闺秀”气质在无形中吸引着我。在她们的身上,无形而生动地体现着“学”的精神。这样的女性平凡而不一般。令人钦佩。而读罢此书,我更加明白,一定...
评分阅人不多,对身旁人的观察和评价往往停留在很肤浅的层面:他很逗,她很急脾气,他喜欢吃辣,她是个美食家……读到这本《合肥四姐妹》,才知道一个人的故事,有那么多个为什么可以追问下去,而追问下去的结果,往往是更为复杂的一个无解。 尽量抹去时代背景,把目光集...
评分寫自己的史和寫他人的史是不一樣的,是藝術家的筆和是歷史學家的筆也是不同的。如果說章詒和的《往事並不如煙》,展現的是一種枯筆卻近飽滿的敦婉雍容;金安平的《合肥四姐妹》,卻是字行間鬆緊有度、看去一片錦繡有光的小楷了。金安平女士在書末列了285條文字出處,一百多本參...
评分几年前读的《张家旧事》更像回忆录,近期读的《合肥四姐妹》则为纪录片。 母亲从扬州嫁至合肥,与父亲相敬如宾,生养众多儿女,给他们富足的生活条件、贴身的服侍保姆、良好的教育资源。孩子们逐渐长大成人,个个优雅淡然,有大家风范。 读的时候,经常感叹教育的重要性。 合肥...
评分2006年9月16日 这周总算能按计划行事,周二就将下周的课备好,余下来的三天里,得以专心读些书,想些问题。于是也终于将拖了良久的两本书读完:Gail Lee Bernstein所著之Isami’s House,和金安平所著之《合肥四姊妹》。两书皆为家族史,又都是大学教授所写,所以我以为会对我...
