Library iTalks
《1858 風起雲湧》: 第二次鴉片戰爭與中國現代化 1858: Turbulent Times
座談會簡介《一八五八: 風起雲湧》是甄子明的第二部歷史小說。2016年甄子明亦曾在科大圖書館分享他的第一本歷史小說 -《一八四九:日出日落》。小說故事發生在1852至1859年,第一次鴉片戰爭已過去了十多年,中國成功解決了洋人的糾纏,正全力應付心腹大患:太平天國。英國人以為《南京條約》會令中國大開貿易之門,結果完全失望。他們有什麼辦法?正當中英夾纏不清時,人類文明卻在飛躍發展。英法有達爾文、馬克思、狄更斯、雨果、莫奈等曠世奇才,中國也有洪仁玕、容閎等首批現代化先烈,這些人對中國、對世界有什麼影響?甄子明將於講座中為大家剖析:第二次鴉片戰爭到底是為了什麼?鴉片?當時世界是怎麼樣的?為什麼中國與英國要打仗?第二次鴉片戰爭與中國的現代化有何關係?《一八五八: 風起雲湧》將於座談會即場發售,歡迎在演講後向作者索取親筆簽名。出席此活動的同學可獲HLTH1010課程中”Activities”單元的”Wellness and Personal Enrichment” 1小時學習時數。 同學須於入場及離場時出示學生證以作記錄。名額有限,請報名留座。講者簡介甄子明在香港出生,在香港和英國受教育。他是香港大學工學士、工管碩士、英國倫敦經濟學院經濟學碩士,是專業工程師,從事香港和國內的房地產業務。甄子明父親是六十年代的武俠小說作家高峰,所以他幼承庭訓,自小就對中國文學、文化和歷史有濃厚興趣。由於身在香港和英國,他亦有機會培養世界視野。除了從書本上認識中國和世界歷史以外,他在中國大陸工作了十多年,所以對中國、英國、和作為中英文化橋樑的香港,都有比較深刻的認識。他接觸過各個地方的不同階層,並在九十年代成為中國一家國企的房地產總經理,是第一個香港人擔任此職務,亦因此成為第一代香港回國內參與房地產建設的人。
