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.

最近因为学校的运动会,读书的进度被耽搁了好多。忙中偷闲,读完了帕斯卡尔的《思想录》。特别喜欢读法国思想家的书,优美的语言,雄辩的论述,翻开之后就不忍合上。这部书被后人奉为法兰西第一部散文杰作,确实值得仔细品读。 相信所有人都听过这句话——人是会思想的芦苇。...
评分李文倩 与高音喇叭相连的凶悍的意识形态话语相比,民间谚语是一种更具经验性的小团痰液,在底层民众的舌尖滑翔。在中国的民间谚语中,有一则涉及衰老者的个体行为时说:尿尿尿湿鞋(读hai),咳嗽屁出来。这是绝妙的象征,言说着衰老者肉体功能的失调与失控。而与肉身的衰老相...
评分我本无力也无心作一篇书评,只是说几句自己的不满。 阿兰·德波顿肯定读过这本书~关于理性与情感的矛盾,关于人的脆弱与伟大的诸多思考再次让我们认识到我们今天一再困扰的忧虑的问题古人早已走到那里了,正如帕斯卡自己所言,世界一次又一次前进与后退,一次次重复它的样子~在...
评分羊皮纸上的灵魂 数学天才。散文大师。一个宗教圣徒式的人。这就是帕斯卡尔。当同时代的笛卡尔提出计算理性的逻辑,上帝仅仅成为一个字眼而不是推动宇宙的最初动力时,帕斯卡尔提出了心灵的逻辑:思想形成人的伟大。 很难再去考证这个300年前的孤独者是否被人爱过,或...
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...
