新时代新动向（中英对照）

本书简介

现代人的自由只是空想，在电子

许多人的自由只是空想，在电子的虚拟世界里寻求满足。他的思想已被阉割，他的生命已被掏空，他的追求十分现实，他的世界只有自己一人。但没有人知道这是悲剧，也没有人理会将来，在现实的无边压力之下，他只有逃避。现代人的逃避已到了危险的边缘，再掉下去，就是虚空。
在这个时候，谁能有跃起之思？不被现实围困，不受欲望拖行，不跟潮流妥协，不与癫狂共舞？那就要看你能否看破当代文化的假象，把目光投向未来；不要在现代美丽的言辞中沉没，让魔术棒的主人窃笑。
本书便是在这样的一个一个情怀下所写。下笔时并未全盘计划，只是随缘发挥；但诸篇之间，仍然互相呼应，精神一致，目标明确：批判时代，呼唤人心的光明；唯有在文化的深处发掘，才能继承历史，走出死亡。

About this book

  The freedom of modern man exists only in his fantasies, like his pursuit of satisfaction in the artificial world of cyberspace. His thought has already been emasculated  and his life  has been emptied. The things he pursues are all very practical, and his world only contains himself. Yet no one realizes that this is a tragedy, and no one understands the future, only yearning to escape from the unbounded pressures of the practical world. Modern man's escaping has already brought him to the brink of catastrophe, and if he continues to fall, it can only be into nothingness.

   As such a time, who can think our way out of the impasses? Who can avoid being hemmed in by reality? Who can avoid being dragged along by desire? Who can avoid compromising with the   current? Who can avoid dancing with the insanity? It all depends on whether see through the facade of contemporary culture. Turn your eyes toward the future. Do not sink into the beautiful word-traps of modernity, letting the master of the magic wand laugh at our gullibility.

   The essays brought together in this book were all written in such a state of mind, in such a state of concern. The author had not fully planned what he wanted to write, just letting the essays unfold of their own accord on the spur of the moment. Nevertheless, there is a strong mutual coherence and consistency of spirit running through the essays, and their purpose is clear: criticizing contemporary culture and calling forth light from the human heart. Only by digging deep into culture can we be the inheritors of history, and only then can we get beyond death.
