A bold new translation of a masterpiece of early social science that has found enthusiasts among such artists and scholars as James Joyce and Harold Bloom.
Although Vico lived his whole life as an obscure academic in Naples, his New Science is an astonishingly ambitious attempt to provide a comprehensive science of all human society by decoding the history, mythology, and law of the ancient world. It argues that the key to true understanding lies in accepting that the customs and emotional lives of the Greeks and Romans, Egyptians, Jews, and Babylonians were utterly different from our own. In examining these huge themes, Vico offers countless fresh insights into topics ranging from physics to politics, money to monsters, and family structures to the Flood. Deeply influential since the dawn of Romanticism, the New Science even inspired the framework for Joyce's Finnegans Wake . This powerful new translation makes it clear why this work marked a turning-point in humanist thinking as significant as Newton's contemporary revolution in physics.
Translated by David Marsh with an Introduction by Anthony Grafton
"My imagination grows every time I read Vico as it doesn't when I read Freud or Jung."-- James Joyce

2016/04 的添加 学习大陆法系的法律以后，对其体系式的思维方法很感慨。 这里要加的来自于苏老师的录音，都是口语化了的：“要了解德国的法治国的观念，是跟18世纪的先验唯心主义这种哲学有很密切的关系。那他们有高度的理想性，就是把国家想成是一个非常高度理想的组织体。把...

評分按作者的思想，所谓新科学，就是通过全新的思考对人类历史进行着梳理。 只是太难以理解了。特别是关于词源方面。作者大量通过对神话，对传说的梳理和新解释，对整个人类文明史进行着自我解读，不能不说相当出色，特别考虑到作者的成书时代，确实是算得上“新科学”的定义。 只...
評分我国人对维柯的重视还不够，许多人都不知道他的存在。但看了他的《新科学》之后，不得不感慨是一位很伟大的学者，知识渊博，见解独特，许多思想都具有开创性，许多想法是前无古人。从他的书中可以预见后来人文科学的发展，比如人类学、民俗学、心理学、社会学，后来的马克...
評分维柯是第一个对西方危机作出重要诊断的人；《新科学》是复兴实体科学的第一次伟大尝试。在维柯的新科学意义上，现代政治科学只是各种“旧”观念的大海上一个并不那么重要的小岛。 维柯的著作 要想进入维柯（1668-1744）的著作，我们就必须考虑到意大利智识环境的独特构架。这位...
