Hiroshima is the story of six human beings who lived through the greatest single manmade disaster in history. With what Bruce Bliven called "the simplicity of genius," John Hersey tells what these six -- a clerk, a widowed seamstress, a physician, a Methodist minister, a young surgeon, and a German Catholic priest -- were doing at 8:15 a.m. on August 6, 1945, when Hiroshima was destroyed by the first atomic bomb ever dropped on a city. Then he follows the course of their lives hour by hour, day by day. The New Yorker of August 31, 1946, devoted all its space to this story. The immediate repercussions were vast: newspapers here and abroad reprinted it; during evening half-hours it was read over the network of the American Broadcasting Company; leading editorials were devoted to it in uncounted newspapers. Almost four decades after the original publication of this celebrated book John Hersey went back to Hiroshima in search of the people whose stories he had told. His account of what he discovered about them -- the variety of ways in which they responded to the past and went on with their lives -- is now the eloquent and moving final chapter of Hiroshima. "At exactly fifteen minutes past eight in the morning, on August 6, 1945, Japanese time, at the moment when the atomic bomb flashed above Hiroshima, Miss Toshiko Sasaki, a clerk in the personnel department of the East Asia Tin Works, had just sat down at her place in the plant office and was turning her head to speak to the girl at the next desk. At that same moment, Dr. Masakazu Fujii was settling down crosslegged to read the Osaka Asahi on the porch of his private hospital, overhanging one of the seven deltaic rivers which divide Hiroshima; Mrs. Hatsuyo Nakamura, a tailor's widow, stood by the window of her kitchen, watching a neighbor tearing down his house because it lay in the path of an air-raid-defense fire lane; Father Wilhelm Kleinsorge, a German priest of the Society of Jesus, reclined in his underwear on a cot on the top floor of his order's three-story mission house, reading a Jesuit magazine, Stimmen der Zeit; Dr. Terufumi Sasaki, a young member of the surgical staff of the city's large, modern Red Cross Hospital, walked along one of the hospital corridors with a blood specimen for a Wassermann test in his hand; and the Reverend Mr. Kiyoshi Tanimoto, pastor of the Hiroshima Methodist Church, paused at the door of a rich man's house in Koi, the city's western suburb, and prepared to unload a handcart full of things he had evacuated from town..."
很早以前,我知道广岛和长崎原子弹爆炸,但也仅仅是知道而已。随着自己接触的东西增多,渐渐地多了解了一些关于二战和原子弹的信息,可是也不全面。直到看了广岛。对二战的受害国家来说,两个原子弹加快了日本投降的脚步,降低了盟军的牺牲人数。对广岛人来说,这颗原子弹在他...
評分每个人都知道这样一个事实:二战的时候美国在广岛和长崎分别投下了两颗原子弹。 原子弹第一次在世人面前宣耀了它的存在。然后呢? 我们所有的认知仅止于那一句话而已。而简单认知的背后,成千上万的人们的真实情况,没有多少人知道。他们当时在做什么?爆炸后他们经历了什么?...
評分今天看到一则新闻,说是以色列为了抗议联合国理事会做出的一项针对巴以两国争议国土的决策,态度强硬地中止了与英法俄中日等十二国的外交关系;紧接着是一条小新闻:巴基斯坦国防部长误信假新闻报道,以为以色列可能对巴进行核武器打击,他发出核威胁称:别忘了巴基斯坦也是核...
評分 評分谷本清还差五万美金,其中的一万他准备在他的巡回演讲中筹集,剩下的四万只能靠美国本地著名节目《这是你的人生》来帮助筹得。 谷本清来到了节目录制地,节目现场的灯光让谷本清难以睁开眼睛,主持人拉尔夫身后的时间牌在倒计时,连同摄像机一起,所有的时间和焦...
