蒋介石的另一份遗嘱

陈红民教授近期发表了一篇颇能引起读者兴趣的文章,使我们对蒋介石遗嘱的背景、内容及特点均有相当了解.陈教授对"蒋介石遗嘱知多少"的回答是蒋氏"至少写过9个遗嘱",没有确定其上限,显示出学者的谨慎.①在陈文所及之外,笔者还真发现了蒋介石的另一份遗嘱,鉴于收录这份遗嘱的台湾出版物在大陆流通并不普遍,照抄于此,供相关学者参考.     

"Dead or Banished": A Comparative Reading of the Stories of King Oedipus and King David

The rise and fall of two of the most famous legendary kings, Oedipus and David, seem to bear great resemblance to each other. This is especially the case in the central narrative of Sophocles' Oedipus the King and the Second Book of Samuel where the kings are usurped by a close relative upon the intercession of a violent third party. The article argues that the stories are based on conventions of the rise and fall of a sacred king who restores order to a violent and “plagued” kingdom. It proposes a comparative reading of the texts, in conjunction with an anthropological reading in accordance with the insights of Rene Girard. This will provide not only a way of reading these ancient texts but also give insight into the perspective of and reality referred to in the texts. This is to read the text with appreciation of the dynamics of text and reader through the anthropological perspective opened up by the recognition of the victim.
