为什么值得读

  • 揭示人文与科学两大阵营间的深层鸿沟
  • 篇幅短小却影响深远,读来发人深省
  • 启发了科技与人文交叉融合的思考

The Two Cultures 是英国科学家兼小说家 C. P. Snow 于1959年发表的具有深远影响的 Rede Lecture 的第一部分。其核心论点是,“整个西方社会的知识生活”已经分裂为题中所指的两种文化——即科学与人文学科——而这是解决世界问题的一大阻碍。该演讲于1959年5月7日在剑桥 Senate House 发表,随后结集出版为 The Two Cultures and the Scientific Revolution。这次演讲及图书是在 Snow 于1956年10月6日发表在 New Statesman 上的一篇文章的基础上拓展而成的,

  • 想要了解更多关于这个的信息,可以看看 C.P. Snow 半个多世纪前的那场演讲《两种文化》(The Two Cultures)。他在演讲中指出人文与科学之间存在巨大的鸿沟。这场演讲与当下的讨论非常契合。顺便提一句,Edge.org 将自己定位为连接两者的“第三种文化”,旨在……

    For more information on this see C.P. Snow's over half-century-old lecture, "The Two Cultures." Within it he posits a great rift between the humanities and the sciences. The lecture is very much relevant to this discussion. As a side note, Edge.org posits itself as an abridging third culture in…

  • C.P. Snow 的《两种文化与科学革命》(1959)。这是一记极其重要的当头棒喝。

    The Two Cultures and the Scientific Revolution by C.P. Snow (1959). An important shot over the bow.

  • ……“人文主义精神信仰”和“还原论信仰”。这是一场半个千年前在哥白尼、伽利略与教会之间就开始暗自燃烧的口水战。我推荐一本很酷的读物,C. P. Snow 的《两种文化》[1]。Snow 和我一样认为,这种人为的分裂阻碍了人类的进步。爱因斯坦也是体会这种思维状态的一个绝佳研究对象。如果说我反对什么的话(不确定我是否……

    …a "humanist spiritual belief" and a "reductionist one". That's a smouldering flame war that started half a millennium back between Copernicus, Galileo and the church. May I suggest a cool read is "The Two Cultures." by C. P. Snow [1]. Snow thinks, as I do, that this artificial split holds humanity back. Albert Einstein is also a great study to get into this groove. If I am objecting to anything (not sure if I…

  • ……纯属伪科学,更糟糕的是——这完全是个虚假二分法。这更多是关于文化傲慢和文化部落主义,争论哪类追求才“更有价值”。去查查 C.P. Snow 的《两种文化》吧——它在当时影响极其深远,而且它所描绘的那种偏见我们至今仍深受其累。这种现象在英语世界无处不在。我怀疑在非英语的西方世界可能没那么严重,或许……

    …thing is pseudo-science and even worse - a false dichotomy. It's much more about cultural snobbery and cultural tribalism around which pursuits are regarded as "more worthy". Look up C.P. Snow's "The Two Cultures" - it was incredibly influential at the time but also described a prejudice we still labour under. It's pervasive in the English speaking world. I suspect less so in the non-anglosphere West and possibly…

  • 我一直觉得 Tim Jennison 那句话是在致敬 C.P. Snow 的《两种文化》演讲。史蒂夫·乔布斯让苹果成为“人文与科技的十字路口”的雄心,似乎也受到了类似的影响。如果你还没读过 Snow 的这场演讲,非常值得花时间读一读。

    I've always considered that Tim Jennison quote to be a reference to C.P. Snow's "The Two Cultures" lecture. Steve Jobs' ambition for Apple to be "where the Liberal Arts and Technology meet" also seemed similarly influenced. If you haven't read Snow's lecture, it's well worth the quick read.

  • ……科学、现代技术和商业运作之道。[a] 也许聪明的孩子们根本不想和这些无知的人一起学习?[a] 正如 C. P. Snow 于 1959 年在他著名的《两种文化》演讲中写到这群人时所说:“我曾多次参加过一些聚会,按传统文化的标准来看,在场的人都受过高等教育,他们津津有味、兴致勃勃地表达着……

    …sciences, modern technologies, and the ways of business.[a] Perhaps the smart kids don't want to study with these ignorant individuals? [a] As C. P. Snow wrote about these people in 1959 in his famous Two Cultures lecture: "A good many times I have been present at gatherings of people who, by the standards of the traditional culture, are thought highly educated and who have with considerable gusto been expressing…
