EXPLORING LEWIS & CLARK(ISBN=9780375700712) 下载 pdf 电子版 epub 免费 txt 2025

This provocative work challenges traditional accounts of

Meriwether Lewis and William Clark’s expedition across the

continent and back again. Uncovering deeper meanings in the

explorers’ journals and lives, Exploring Lewis and Clark

exposes their self-perceptions and deceptions, and how they

interacted with those who traveled with them, the people they

discovered along the way, the animals they hunted, and the land

they walked across. The book discovers new heroes and brings old

ones into historical focus.

Thomas P. Slaughter interrogates the explorers’ dreams, how they

wrote and what they aimed to possess, their interactions with

animals, Indians, and each other, their sense of themselves as

leaders and men, and why they feared that they had failed their

nation and President. Slaughter’s Lewis and Clark are more

confused, frightened, courageous, and flawed than in previous

accounts. They are more human, their expedition more dramatic, and

thus their story is more revealing about our own relationships to

history and myth.

considering the thorniest questions within it.? ?

The Washington

beneath the surface of the journals...Raise[s] interesting

everything we read in the journals as truth." ?

own accounts of their journey, Slaughter probes the threats that

confronted Lewis and Clark at every turn.? ? The Times-Picayune --

  和妹尾河童的书类似。只有日本人才会写出这样的书吧？书的制作很用心，封面就是所谓的“地卷纸”的软精装吧？由于经常做标书，所以能更实际地理解书里讲的一些制作工艺。这书只印了3300册。价钱贵点也是应该的。

  《赶在陷落之前》和《斑鸠》（有成为长篇的潜力，却收得极为仓促）两篇比较好，尤其是前者，回味无穷。（3月的书，4月来标记）

  看到末尾处“献给林怀民”，突然觉得这个名字忒眼熟了。

  想起有个现代舞蹈叫薪传，搞那个的云门舞集的头就叫林怀民。

  上网一搜索还真是，几米表达意思是什么呢？

  我疑心几米是想问林怀民这样坚持着到底累不累？

  听说云门舞遭了火灾，服装道具几乎都烧了，我叵测的猜疑是不是林怀民自己放的火，终于可以从盛名，和众人的期待中解脱出来，对林怀民来说大概也是一个好的结局吧，坚持理想久了大概也会疲劳吧。

  很多事情都是这样，因为兴趣开始，变成负担结束。
