回到历史有时很简单,当你在欣赏某件历史遗存时,往往就已经与历史形成了交汇.甚至有时这些遗存还会告诉你一些事情. 3 [! a4 l! g3 O6 I. j% K- U

看到地图的内容,您又会想问.这是谁,在什么时候描绘的?这儿描绘的是北京吗?什么时候描绘的?有什么含义呢?很遗憾,究竟是谁描绘的我并不清楚.我清楚的是这儿描绘的的确是北京,或者也称为"北平".描绘的含义我想每个人的理解都不一样,熟悉一段历史的人或许更容易参透.

The defeat of the Chinese Imperial forces in the 2nd Opium War (1856-1860) was secured by the final advance on Peking in the summer of 1860. The combined British and French forces re-captured the Taku forts at the mouth of the Pei-Ho river on 21st August and then advanced up-river, finally reaching Peking on 22nd Spetember 1860. With the allies arrival, the Emperor went into exile and the Summer Palace was burnt by the British.

The present maps detail the chronology of the advance of a contingent of French forces from the Taku forts to Yuanmingyuan (The Summer Palace) and the details of all the camps and actions.

再说太多,往往就显得没有什么价值了.只是当我们再面对历史遗存的时候,究竟该以怎样的心情和思想去观赏,往往比历史遗存本身的价值更重要.

此外,再奉送一张已经传阅无数遍的清漪园照.只是我发的图片大些.非个人扫描,收集来自于网络.之前又看到对清漪园这幅照片的拍摄者有疑问之类的.我不太清楚我发的是谁所拍摄的.照片的说明也只是据传为比托.但并没有肯定说就是.
