SPINOZA (1634-77) is the noblest and most lovable of the great philosophers,
Intellectually, some others have surpassed him,
but ethically he is supreme.
As a natural consequence, he was considered,
during his lifetime and for a century after his death,
a man of appalling wickedness.
He was born a Jew, but the Jews excommunicated him.
Christians abhorred him equally;
although his whole philosophy is dominated by the idea of God,
the orthodox accused him of atheism.
Leibniz, who owed much to him,
concealed his debt, and carefully abstained from saying a word in his praise;
he even went so far as to lie about the extent of his personal acquaintance
with the heretic Jew.
斯宾诺莎(Spinoza,1632—77)是伟大哲学家当中人格最高尚、性情最温厚可亲的。
按才智讲,有些人超越了他,但是在道德方面,他是至高无上的。
因此,他在生前和死后一个世纪以内,被看成是坏得可怕的人,这是当然的... (查看原文)

内容不论(确有不少受益,但总体主观性太强了,而且我并不大认同此主观),下册的中译实在不好。当然,哲学史不可能客观得了(梯力的更客观,可因此也常常更成为外在的无生命的知识),一来作为辅助资料,二来在能做到的范围内将多人的言述对比阅读。

罗素是少见的聪明人!古代部分非常引人入胜;中世纪神学和基督教、天主教发展部分则人物众多,战争史与思想史杂糅,安排较为混乱。上下册看完觉得最精彩的还是古代部分,后面有点劲到不足了。果然开天辟地的原创思想最有味道,早生几千年就是优势,占坑,影响后人的思想走向。

直接说吧,这书不行真的不是译者的问题,详参原文。 罗素本人的文风就极为糟糕,各种佶屈聱牙,加上其本人的诸多偏见,让这套哲学史顺利成为20世纪以来毫无疑问垫底的哲学史。

如果是认真的评价,那么我会打2星。 但是考虑到本书在大众读者中享有的与其质量毫不匹配的盛名,还是1星吧。
