Gustave Le Bon (1841-1931) was a French social psychologist, sociologist, and amateur physicist. He was the author of several works in which he expounded theories of national traits, racial superiority, herd behaviour and crowd psychology. His work on crowd psychology became important in the first half of the twentieth century when it was used by media researchers to describe the reactions of subordinate groups to media. He also contributed to on-going debates in physics about the nature of matter and energy. His book The Evolution of Matter was very popular in France. His first great success however was the publication of The Psychology of Peoples (1894), the first work in which he hit upon a popularising style that was to make his reputation secure. His best selling work, The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind (1895) followed soon after. Le Bon was one of the great popularisers of theories of the unconscious at a critical moment in the formation of new theories of social action. Sigmund Freud's Group Psychology and the Analysis of the Ego (1922) was explicitly based on a critique of Le Bon's work.

评分1.历来都是如此。与宗教信仰有关的偏执及其对人们的头脑实行的专制统治,早就为大家所知。 2.许多孤立的个人,不只是野蛮人,而且还包括在智力的某个方面接近于原始人的所有人,例如宗教信仰上的狂热宗派成员,在他们身上都可以看到这种现象。 3.偏执...
评分按:这是写给同事看的,因为当时她需要了解这本书的内容,而又来不及通读全书。故我重读一遍,做了这个简单的札记。 勒庞的《乌合之众》,“是一部以阅读法国大革命时间为基础的群体行为的社会心理学著作”。罗伯特•墨顿的序“勒庞《乌合之众》的得与失”写得很好,他提...
评分我竟然迟到现在才读这本书,我很诧异,相读恨晚的感觉。 在读书的时候,我不断想起历史上发生过的一些著名革命、纳粹、文化大某命、群体性事件,包括我经历过的一些小范围的群体活动,尤其是象安利那样的,我回思人们在其中的表现,也庆幸着自己当时的清醒,但其实我也不敢保...
评分为什么叫乌合之书?比如勒庞老师这本七拼八凑偏见横飞胡乱论证纵笔狂书还攒出了一门“群众心理学”。 这门学问有三大宝贝:一曰泛化(generalisation),拉丁民族就怎么怎么浪漫激进,盎格鲁撒克逊就怎么怎么沉静稳重,法国人就怎么这么爱窝里斗呢?瞧隔壁英吉利半岛现如今还尊...
