《海南岛传》内容介绍
《海南岛传:一座岛屿的前世今生》是“丝路百城传”丛书中唯一一部以整个岛屿(省)为地理单元的作品。海南岛的自然之魅,已经为无数的眼睛所领受。然而,作为人类生活的一个特殊现场,这里曾经风起云涌、撕心裂肺的一切,却杳然沉入历史的深幽与冰凉。本书以随笔的话语,叙述了这座海岛隐秘而传奇的身世,打捞出沉船一般斑驳的人物与事物,在复活再现的同时并加以辗转演绎,从中榨取出丰盈而令人惊讶的意义与滋味——这恰恰是海南岛最令人神往的所在。全书以时间为轴,以人、物、事为经纬,由点带面,以个人、具象之事与物作为时代的见证者,展现每个时代当时的政治体系、社会生活以及诗文的发展等。文中许多象征之物,其蕴义已非物本身,亦折射出人情、风俗、时代等交叉相织的历史迁延。
作者孔见既是很有成就的作家,也是一个地道的海南土著,无论从写作还是阅读的角度来看,本书都堪称是对这座岛屿的重新发现,是一部历史文化根基性的大书,打通古今与物我的故园缅怀之旅。

Introduction of Hainan Island Biography
Biography of Hainan Island: The Past and Present Lives of an Island is the only work in the series of "Silk Road Biography of 100 Cities" that takes the entire island (province) as its geographical unit. The charm of nature in Hainan Island has been received by countless eyes. However, as a special scene of human life, everything that has been surging and tearing the heart and lungs here has disappeared into the deep ghost and cold of history. In the words of essays, this book describes the secret and legendary life of this island, salvaging the shipwreck-like mottled people and things, and at the same time, they are resurrected and translated, from which they extract a rich and surprising meaning and taste - which is precisely the most fascinating location of Hainan Island. The book takes time as the axis, people, things and things as the warp and weft, from the point to the surface, with personal and concrete things and things as the witnesses of The Times, showing the political system, social life and the development of poetry and literature in each era. The meaning of many symbolic objects in the text is no longer the object itself, but also reflects the history of human feelings, customs, times and so on.
The author, Kong Jian, is both an accomplished writer and a native of Hainan. Both from the perspective of writing and reading, this book is a rediscovery of the island, a historical and cultural foundation, and a journey to the memory of my hometown.
