修订一部深受读者欢迎的音乐通史，目的不是推倒重写，而是提高它的时代性。看惯前几版的读者，会觉得此书不论外貌或者内容改动甚大，但章次和范围基本未变。收名中加上“西方”一词，说明我们意识到西欧和南北美洲的音乐体系不过是世界文明的诸音乐体系之一。本书范围的又一局限在于只谈“艺术音乐”；而必须承认，“艺术音乐”这一概念本身便十分含糊。通俗音乐、爵士乐以及诸如此类的品种确已有相当高深的技巧，但不能期望本书同等对待西方音乐的这一广大支系（如今已成为独立的研究课题），常规的音乐史教程也未必能等同视之，而本书不过是一本常规音乐史的手册。

法国印象派绘画虽然在有些人看来分别存有或片面追求光学的客观主义，或把科学原理与艺术创作有机结合，以及自我表现的个体主义倾向等，但在西方传统绘画的历史性超越、对西方现代主义艺术的精神启迪等方面，提出了许多关键性的问题并进行了有益的探索性实验。因此可以说，法国印象派绘画扭转了西方美术的发展方向，开启了美术的新纪元。

Andreas Gurskys new Bangkok series forms the basis of this book. Gurskys photos depict the dark, moving water of Thailands Chao Phraya river, whose shimmering surface possesses the qualities of abstract painting. Indeed these photos are reminiscent of some of the most recognisable examples of Modernist Abstraction such as the work of Hans Arp, but they also echo the more hostile patterns of military camouflage. Seductively beautiful on the first glance, it is only in time that the rubbish of civilisation becomes recognisable floating on the surface of the river the flotsam of a threatening reality moving upon colourful reflections. Gursky alludes to the ecological problems that jeopardise Bangkok, and which shortly after these images were made, culminated in the widespread flooding that devastated great parts of Thailand. Andreas Gursky, born in 1955 in Leipzig, is one of the most important contemporary photographers. He studied at the Folkwangschule in Essen, and at the Kunstakademie Du?sseldorf under

水墨画鱼类，虽看似粗略几笔，齐白石对原物却观察得异常仔细，并抓住其主要特征进行刻画。他晚年曾对弟子胡絮青说：“鲫鱼腮旁有一条灰白的线，直通鱼尾，从这条线可以计算它身上有若干鳞片……画画的人如能这么仔细地去研究它，在画它时就不会马虎的了。”齐白石画虾享誉于世。他早期画虾，基本上是青虾（河虾）的造型，且多是游动的群虾，用小号羊毫笔，其质感和透明度不强，虾的腿和须画得短密且欠弹性，后腿呈排列状且多至八九条。为求神似，老人70岁后画虾，一改早年画法，加大并明确了虾身的起伏角度，同时对虾的游足也一删早年时的繁多，始而画游足五只，虾壳的质感和透明感也得到加强。80岁后他删繁就简，已不再画繁复的虾群，只为几只虾传神。画虾变化明显的是他把虾头前面的短须省去，仅画六条大须。虾须的简化，使得画幅的空
In 1950, Robert Frank left his job as a photographer in NewYork to travel through Europe with his family. That summer hearrived in Valencia, Spain, which was at the time a humble, bleakplace enduring the austere conditions of the postwar period likethe rest of the country. The pictures Frank took of Valencia depictthe daily life of a fishing village. His portrayal is so naturaland clear that further verbal explanation seems superfluous; theysimply reflect, in the photo graphers words, the humanity of themoment. The photographs in this book, many of which have never beenpublished before, allow dignity to override poverty. Robert Frank,a key figure in photographic history, was born in Zurich in 1924and immigrated to the United States in 1947. He is best known forhis seminal book The Americans, first published in 1959, which gaverise to a distinct new form in the photobook, and his experimentalfilm Pull My Daisy (1959). Franks other projects include the booksBlack White and Things (1954) and The Lines of
