具體描述
Liberty is a revised and expanded edition of the book that Isaiah Berlin regarded as his most important—Four Essays on Liberty, a standard text of liberalism, constantly in demand and constantly discussed since it was first published in 1969. Writing in Harper's, Irving Howe described it as "an exhilarating performance—this, one tells oneself, is what the life of the mind can be."
Berlin's editor Henry Hardy has revised the text, incorporating a fifth essay that Berlin himself had wanted to include. He has also added further pieces that bear on the same topic, so that Berlin's principal statements on liberty are at last available together in one volume. Finally, in an extended preface and in appendices drawn from Berlin's unpublished writings, he exhibits some of the biographical sources of Berlin's lifelong preoccupation with liberalism. These additions help us to grasp the nature of Berlin's "inner citadel," as he called it—the core of personal conviction from which some of his most influential writing sprung.

##2006年寫畢業論文竟然參考過，估計是純粹裝逼，八成都沒讀吧
評分##伯林是個思想史的好老師，是少有的會像演講稿一樣安排內容的思想史作者，總是清晰地告訴讀者他要討論的是什麼問題。最愛的一篇是The Birth of Greek Individualism. 前麵的編輯手記一定要讀，非常贊!
評分##隻讀瞭其中的“兩種自由”一篇。前麵的梳理雖然dense，但是條理清晰，且有效地展開瞭兩者間的張力，很厲害。就是最後強調negative liberty，並且認為這會促成文化多元，這樣的論點和論述過程讓我多少有些不敢恭維。其實關鍵還在於Berlin當時心裏要解決的問題。
評分##書果然得多讀幾遍。其實很多話都是重復，就是把一句話換一種方式再說一遍，不過這樣對讀者很友好。伯林的論述中有個有意思的問題：自然科學方法論與形而上學看起來是對手，然而就這麼聯手瞭~
評分##Although Sir Isaiah Berlin has shown his apparent indifference to values in history, such as freedom and justice, and holds a superficial attitude towards values' conflict, still he displays the outstanding taste of a Classic liberalist——a writing style of prudent and fluent, and most important, explicit sightseeing and distinction.
