For much of his life Pascal (1623-62) worked on a magnum opus which was never published in its intended form. Instead, he left a mass of fragments, some of them meant as notes for the Apologie. These were to become known as the Pensees, and they occupy a crucial place in Western philosophy and religious writing. Pascal's general intention was to confound scepticism about metaphysical questions. Some of the Pensees are fully developed literary reflections on the human condition,, some contradict others, and some remain jottings whose meaning will never be clear. The most important are among the most powerful aphorisms about human experience and behaviour ever written in any language. This translation is the only one based on the Pensees as Pascal left them. It includes the principal dossiers classified by Pascal, as well as the essential portion of the important Writings on Grace. A detailed thematic index gives access to Pascal's areas of concern, while the selection of texts and the introduction help to show why Pascal changed the plan of his projected work before abandoning the book he might have written.

评分因为他害怕、迷茫。 让他害怕、迷茫的问题,今天照样摆在我们面前:相比宏大的宇宙,银河系只是一颗尘埃;相比宏大的银河系,太阳系只是一颗尘埃;面对宏大的太阳系,人,比尘埃还尘埃;在前不见开端后不见结尾的茫茫时间里,一个人的存在仅仅是短短一瞬;向上来说,宇宙也无边...
评分好几年前的时候曾经翻译过一个美国学者Grotius写的一本小册子《帕斯卡尔》,印象中那本书写得并不太好,Grotius是个基督徒,对帕斯卡尔的同情和敬仰虽是真诚,无奈却似乎无力刻画当代思想和文化的基本轮廓,因此也就无法有力地呈现帕斯卡尔思想的相关性和动人之处了。 ...
