  • 基督徒怎样读懂四大名著

    by 齐宏伟 ...
    这是一本通过解读四大名著而让基督信仰与中国文化相遇的书,帮助基督徒以道观之读懂并读通四大名著,更新对中国文化以及自身信仰的认识。四大名著深深影响着中华文化,但在基督徒和非基督徒中却均存在着一些误解,以致读《圣经》的人不愿读四大名著(却避不开),读四大名著的人不屑读《圣经》(需要更新)。针对基督徒对四大名著的"怕",如怕被"世俗小学"影响,怕读得"迷进去"等等,作者给出了由表及里的破解方法。先通过了解每部名著引起兴趣,再选片断精读,加以引导、点拨,敞开讨论,用读和写来汲取名著的精华,促进生命的成长。以读写为路径,作者一步步引导读者从文本走进四大名著的精神世界。他在书中指出,"四大名著合在一起,代表了中国人对人生在世如何生活、如何活出意义和价值的整体思考",《水浒传》《三国演义》受儒家影响提供了一条"入世"之路,《西游记》《红楼梦》则受道佛影响提供了一条"出世"之路。这两条路合在一起 ...
