First time read a seemingly weird novel, but very interesting, insightful. It shows two different genius' different ways of measuring the universe around them, one prefers to stay at home and keep thinking mathematics issues, the other want to adventure across globe and collect nature samples. Genius not always decent, sometimes evilly desirable.

評分Getting bored of the thin fabric of the society
評分German romanticism is awaken by the hypothesis - what if basic ideas shaped our nowadays world is more derived from personal fever when science was deemed as a 'cult' rather than logical inevitabilities proclaimed&verified by its overwhelming effectiveness afterwards? Then, how should we weigh those people bearing contradictory ideas to their age?

Loosely based on the lives of 19th-century explorer Alexander von Humboldt and a contemporary, mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss, Kehlmann's novel, a German bestseller widely heralded as an exemplar of "new" German fiction, injects musty history with shots of whimsy and irony. Humboldt voyages to South America to map the Orinoco River, climb the Chimborazo peak in Ecuador and measure "every river, every mountain and every lake in his path." Gauss is the hedgehog to Humboldt's fox, leaping out of bed on his wedding night to jot down a formula and rarely leaving his hometown of Göttingen. The two meet at a scientific congress in 1828, when Germany is in turmoil after the fall of Napoleon. Other luminaries appear throughout the novel, including a senile Immanuel Kant, Louis Daguerre and Thomas Jefferson. The narrative is notable for its brisk pacing, lively prose and wry humor (curmudgeonly Gauss laments, for instance, how "every idiot would be able to... invent the most complete nonsense" about him 200 years hence), which keenly complements Kehlmann's intelligent, if not especially deep, treatment of science, mathematics and reason at the end of the Enlightenment.
德意志男人的一种坚硬是民族带给世界的不妥协,反映在文字上就是过于隐蔽的幽默感,以至于阅读起来需要挺直背脊,而不能当作故事消遣。于是大家评论好的德国小说,说它完全不像是个德国人写出来的。比如被广泛拿来和这本《丈量世界》对比的《香水》。 《丈量世界》是一...
評分 評分很不愿背后说某本书的不是,但这本三联版的翻译值得商榷的地方实在太多,太多。 记得第一次看英文版的《红楼梦》的时候,实在无语。无言。想骂。 中国人,或者华语世界都知道,那不是一个男孩和十二个女孩的故事。 也不是一个男孩青春期前后的幻梦。 但许多地方,确实没有办法...
評分《测量世界》,昨天回到住处,搁在桌上,打开它,一切就都发生了,七点到十二点,那把木椅子格格响,我打着寒摆终于读完它。小说结构用的是双主角双线式,在故事结尾处交汇,把情节交给一位先前不起眼的次要人物。丹尼尔·克尔曼30岁了,这结构掌握得那么不尽人意,可见他不是...
