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. 9 i w+ N/ r" S9 t6 N$ ]

如果你给这样一幅简易的绘画,你会认为是什么呢?一张地图?一张方位图?还是某人随手的几笔勾勒?其实这就是一幅简易的地图.

"Two maps depicting the route of French forces advancing on Peking, August 1860"
- w' v# M. [" L# v7 \ Footnote: ; _, e2 [! ~ h- O
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.
1 w/ A1 A# \2 D; d) G Louis Aubaret commanded the French vessel 'Pregent' in the battle fleet of Admiral Charner. 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. 7 h8 ]% M/ ?, M0 S# B% J8 a' d7 G

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.
