Delacroix (26 April 1798 – 13 August 1863) was a French Romantic artist regarded from the outset开始 of his career as the leader of the French Romantic school. Delacroix‘s use of expressive brushstrokes绘画技 巧 and his study of the optical光学的 effects of colour profoundly深深地 shaped the work of the Impressionists, while his passion for the exotic异国的 inspired the artists of the Symbolist movement. A fine lithographer[li’θɔgrəfə] 石版家, Delacroix illustrated various works of William Shakespeare, the Scottish writer Walter Scott and the German writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

第一章希腊罗马文化希腊罗马文化可以说是欧洲文明的起源,所以这一章节应该是比较重要的章节。
我们先看希腊的发展。
希腊文明分为几个时期,她形成于公元前800-500年,经历了古典时代(也就是公元前500到公元前336年)和希腊化时代(也就是公元前336年到公元前31年)。
希腊文明达到顶峰是公元前5世纪。
公元前146年,希腊被罗马攻克。
希腊文明也就被罗马文明所取代。
这段历史的重要大事有:1、公元前12世纪,随着特洛伊人的入侵,希腊堕入“黑暗时代”。
荷马史诗描述的正是希腊人与特洛伊人之间的战争(《以利亚特》和《奥得赛》)。
这里要注意的是,荷马史诗描述的时代并非荷马生活的时代。
荷马生活在公元前700年。
2、公元前6世纪,希腊世界开始有了全面改变,为后来的古典时代打开了通途。
其中两个重要的城邦国家是雅典和斯巴达。
雅典发展起一个完全不同类型的社会,公元前594年,梭伦成为雅典的首席执行官,他的贡献在于,在组织上为以后建立著名的雅典民主奠定了基础。
雅典之所以在当时拥有卓越的地位,是因为它在打败庞大的波斯帝国这场重大战争中起了最主要的作用。
历史之父希罗多德在他的历史书中进行了详尽的描述。
3、由于雅典的不断扩张引起了斯巴达的恐慌,因而在公元前431年爆发了伯罗奔尼撒战争。
战争最终以雅典的失败而告终。
修昔底得这位历史上最伟大的历史学家在其作品中,详尽描写了这一战争。
4、伯罗奔尼撒战争后,斯巴达专横跋扈,底比斯和雅典为求相互保护而结成新的联盟。
公元前371年,马其顿国王腓力二世打败了底比斯和雅典联军,他的闻名世界的儿子亚历山大大帝统治了希腊。
至此,古典时代结束,希腊化时代即将开始。
古典时代的希腊造就了一批哲学家和剧作家。
哲学家主要以苏格拉底、柏拉图和亚里士多德为代表。
苏格拉底提出自由辩论的重要性。
柏拉图的目标是要实现一个既能维持贵族特权,又可为贫苦阶级接受的社会,并构件了唯心主义的根基。
亚力士多德寻求自然界和人类社会各个方面的秩序。

最後,奧德賽得神助,乘坐一艘在一夜之間可到達世界 各地的奇異船,在睡眠中回到故鄉伊他開。在那裡, 奧 德賽得到雅典娜女神的鼓勵,還有兒子和兩位忠實部下的 協助,並得知其妻對其的忠貞,從武器倉庫裡取出古時候 留傳下來的大弓箭,將那些惡劣的求婚者一一射殺。貝尼 蘿蓓亞以為奧德賽在特洛伊陣亡,見丈夫平安歸來驚喜萬 分,一家人終於團圓。

此時霍克得雖然擔心自己死後國家和妻子的命運,但為了名譽, 單獨出城和阿奇里斯決一死戰。最後,阿奇里斯有雅典娜女神 的幫忙,將霍克得殺死,達到報仇的心願。阿奇里斯並將霍克 得的屍體縛在戰車上拖著走。特洛伊的老王普利亞摩斯,為了 要回兒子的遺體,親自訪問阿奇里斯的營地,於是兩人共嘆命 運的悲哀。老王將兒子的遺體運回充滿悲傷的特洛伊城舉行葬 禮。
希臘方面為了奪回海倫,公元前1194年,亞該亞希臘人組織 一千艘的船對進攻特洛伊,以斯巴達王的長兄邁 錫尼王亞格門 能 (亞金面羅王) 為統帥。經過十年悠久歲月,仍然不能攻下 特洛伊城。「伊里亞德」就是歌 詠這十年當中最後數十天所發 生的事。
欧洲文化入门
欧洲文化之都:欧洲文化之都最开始被称为欧洲文化之城,它于1983年由Melina Mercouri构思,并接着由希腊文化部开始举办。
Mercouri 当时认为,文化并没有如同政治和经济那样受到足够的关注,因此需要各成员国联合开展一项计划以宣传欧洲文化。
欧洲文化之城计划自1985年夏天于第一个拥有此头衔的雅典开始运作。
从1999年德国举办期开始,欧洲文化之城改名为欧洲文化之都。

Before Reformation, E urope was essentially feudal and medieval. In all aspects of politics, economy and spir it, it was under the absolute rule of the Roman Catholic Church and the Holy Roman Empire. But after the Reformation things were different. In educational and cultural m atters, the monopoly of the church was broken. In religion, Protestantism brought into being different forms of Christianity to challenge the absolute rule of the Roman Cath olic Church. In language, the dominant position of Latin had to give way to the nation al languages as a result of various translations of Bible into vernacular. In spirit, absol ute obedience became out--mode and the spirit of quest, debate, was ushered in by the reformists. In word, after the reformation Europe was to take a new course of develop ment, a scientific revolutionwas to be under way and capitalism was to set in with its dynamic economic principle s.4. Why do we say that Bacon was a founder of modern philosophy? Bacon was regard ed as the founder of modern philosophy:The whole basis of his philosophy was practical. He held the philosophy should be ke pt separate from theology instead of being blended with it as the Scholasticism; Bacon maintained that it was crucial to supply mankind with a scientific method of in quiry into nature. He rejected the traditional deductive method and founded modern in ductive method;To expert any great advancement in science, bacon held that we must begin anew. The fresh start required the mind to overcome all the preconceptions, all prejudices, all theassumption, to sweep away all the fallacies and false beliefs, in a word, to break with t he past, and to restore man to his lost mastery of the natural world. This was what Bacon called the Great Instauration.8. What is Descartes’ method of Cartesian doubt? What is its significance? Descartes employed methodic doubt with a view to discovering whether there was an indubitable truth. And he expressed this truth in this famous motto: ―I doubt, therefor e I think: I think, therefore I am.‖ This Cartesian doubt is the most important point in h is philosophy. According to Descartes, I think therefore I am‖ makes mind more cer tain than matter. He believed that is thinking is one that doubts, understands, conceive s, affirms, denies, wills, imagines, and feels. Doubting is thinking, thinking is the esse nce of mind. So he concluded that knowledge of things that we conceive very clearly and distinctly are true, and that knowledge of things must be by the mind. As to the se nses, he believed that they are not dependable.2. Why the Enlightenment is also called “the Age of Reason”?The Enlightenment characterizes the efforts by certain European writers to use criticalreason to free minds from prejudice, unexamined authority and oppression by Church or State. Therefore it is called the Age of Reason.7. In which book did Montesquieu discuss the separation of powers? Discuss its core (main) ideas and significance. (谈谈其当时的意义以及对美国立法的影响。

欧洲文化入门《文艺复兴》文艺复兴是指13世纪末在意大利各城市兴起,以后扩展到西欧各国,于16世纪在欧洲盛行的一场思想文化运动,带来一段科学与艺术革命时期,揭开了近代欧洲历史的序幕,被认为是中古时代和近代的分界。
1,历史背景:1,西欧的中世纪是个特别“黑暗的时代”。
基督教教会成了当时封建社会的精神支柱,它建立了一套严格的等级制度,把上帝当做绝对的权威。
文学、艺术、哲学一切都得遵照基督教的经典——《圣经》的教义,谁都不可违背,否则,宗教法庭就要对他制裁,甚至处以死刑。
2,中世纪的后期,资本主义萌芽在多种条件的促生下,于欧洲的意大利首先出现。
3,资本主义萌芽的出现也为这场思想运动的兴起提供了可能。
4,许多西欧的学者要求恢复古希腊和罗马的文化和艺术。
这种要求就像春风,慢慢吹遍整个西欧。
文艺复兴运动由此兴起。
2,文艺复兴的实质:是一场资产阶级的思想文化运动,借复兴古人文主义的名义,吸取人文主义的精髓(重视人的价值和地位),来为新兴资本主义发展服务,消除封建主义和封建神学的阻扰势力。
核心思潮:人文主义以人为中心而不是以神为中心,肯定人的尊严和价值;要求享受现实生活,追求自由幸福和物质享受;崇尚科学和理性,追求知识和真理。
,3,作品思想:文艺复兴时期的作品,集中体现了人文主义思想:主张个性解放,反对中世纪的禁欲主义和宗教观;提倡科学文化,反对蒙昧主义,摆脱教会对人们思想的束缚;肯定人权,反对神权,屏弃作为神学和经院哲学基础的一切权威和传统教条;拥护中央集权,反对封建割据,这是人文主义的主要思想。
其中,代表性作品有:但丁的《神曲》、薄伽丘的《十日谈》、马基雅维利的《君主论》、拉伯雷的《巨人传》等。
4,文学三杰和艺术三杰:但丁,彼特拉克和薄伽丘。
达·芬奇,拉菲尔和米开朗基罗。
5,历史影响:首先,文艺复兴发现了人和人的伟大,肯定了人的价值和创造力,提出人要获得解放,个性应该自由。
(1)重视人的价值,要求发挥人的聪明才智及创造性潜力,反对消极的无所作为的人生态度,提倡积极冒险精神。
《欧洲文化入门》外国百科知识梳理
欧洲文化入门第一章特洛伊战争:特洛伊战争是以争夺世上海伦(Helen)为起因,以阿伽门农(Agamemnon)及阿喀琉斯(Achilles)为首的希腊军进攻以帕里斯及赫克托尔为首的的十年攻城战。
然而根据《世界通史》的论述,特洛伊地处交通要道,商业发达,经济繁荣,人民生活富裕。
亚细亚各君主结成联军,推举阿伽门农为统帅。
他们对地中海沿岸最富有的地区早就垂涎三尺,一心想占为己有,于是以海伦为借口发动战争,这才是特洛伊战争的真正目的。
民主制城邦:指全民行使权利的城邦,但全民仅指成年男性公民,而且公民权也是从父辈那里世袭而来。
荷马:古希腊盲诗人。
相传记述了公元前12~前11世纪特洛伊战争,以及关于海上冒险故事的古希腊长篇叙事代表作——史诗《伊利亚特》和《奥德赛》,即是他根据民间流传的短歌综合编写而成。
他生活的年代,当在公元前10~9、8世纪之间。
他的杰作《荷马史诗》,在很长时间里影响了西方的宗教、文化和伦理观。
伊利亚特:相传是由盲诗人荷马所作。
是重要的古希腊文学作品,也是整个西方的经典之一。
《伊利亚特》全诗共15,693行,分为24卷,主要内容是讲述了在阿伽门农的率领下,古希腊南部各城邦联合征战特洛伊的故事。
它通过对特洛伊战争的描写,歌颂英勇善战、维护集体利益、为集体建立功勋的英雄。
奥德赛:又译《奥德修纪》,是古希腊最重要的两部史诗之一《奥德赛》延续了《伊利亚特》的故事情节,相传为盲诗人荷马所作。
这部史诗是西方文学的奠基之作,是除《吉尔伽美什史诗》和《伊利亚特》外现存最古老的西方文学作品。
讲述了奥德修斯在特洛伊战争结束后返回家乡绮色佳岛的故事,书中讲述了奥德修斯在漫长的海上航行中的种种冒险经历,以及最终如何与忠实的妻子泊涅罗泊重新团聚的故事。
荷马史诗:《荷马史诗》相传是由古希腊盲诗人荷马创作的两部长篇史诗——《伊利亚特》和《奥德赛》的统称,是他根据民间流传的短歌综合编写而成。
《荷马史诗》以扬抑格六音部写成,集古希腊口述文学之大成,是古希腊最伟大的作品,也是西方文学中最伟大的作品。

1、The Historical Background
• TIME: around 1200B.C. • Establishment : after the war between Greece and Troy. • Cultural Significance: mark by the successful repulse of the Persian invasion . • Spread : Alexander and his armies conquered large areas of Europe Asia and Africa. • End: it was conquered by the Romans
• The Histories — his masterpiece and the only work he is known to have produced — is a record of his "inquiry" , being an investigation of the origins of the Greco-Persian Wars and including a wealth of geographical and ethnographical information. Although some of his stories were not completely accurate, he claimed that he was reporting only what had been told to him. Little is known of his personal history since ancient records are scanty, contradictory and often fanciful.
