FOOTNOTES: HOW RUNNING MAKES US HUMAN

Book ID/图书代码: 11340014B74468

English Summary/英文概要: Running is not just a sport. It is the breaking down of our increasingly structured and demanding lives. It affords us freedom, stepping off life’s pathways and into the wild. In a world that is a constant onslaught of information, alienating us from our environment and ourselves, running reconnects us, lifts the spirit and allows our minds out to play.

Footnotes will take you out to tread London’s streets, climbing to sites that have seen a millennium of hangings, or down the crumbling alleyways of Ruskin’s Venice. It will transport you to the cliff tops of Hardy’s Dorset and the glacial debris of Scott’s Edinburgh, using debates in literature, philosophy and biology to explore that simple human desire to run.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 跑步绝不仅仅是一项运动。它是对我们日益结构化和压力化的生活的打破。它赋予我们自由,让我们走出生活的既定轨道,走进自然的世界。在当今这个信息不断轰炸的世界中,我们逐渐与环境分隔和陌生起来,跑步让我们重新与环境建立联系,它让我们的精神振奋,让我们的思维活跃。

《脚之印记》将带你出去踏一踏伦敦的街道,攀爬到那些至高点去俯瞰千年,抑或是探访拉斯金的威尼斯巷道。你将前往哈代笔下的多赛特郡的悬崖之巅、斯科特笔下的爱丁堡的冰川之墟,用文学、哲学及生物学中的论战去探寻人类奔跑的原始欲望。(DC)
