Syllabus

前言 Introduction

這門課的原始動機，就是希望打破歷史思維有「標準答案」這種想法，希望同學在上這門課後，都能打破思想的框框，解放各位的思辨能力。在這門課裡，會藉由歷史案例，來向各位示範學習歷史可以如何思維；但希望同學壹定要記得，不要把老師的答案當成是「標準答案」。人文學的本質是思辨，思辨有「好」和「更好」的答案，但根本沒有「標準答案」。

孔林與始皇陵 The Cemetery of Confucius and Emperor Qin

在本模塊中，我們將介紹中國歷史上的兩個重要人物孔子和秦始皇留下的遺產——孔林與秦始皇陵。從孔林與秦始皇陵出發，圍繞這兩個人物探討什麼是成功，什麼是失敗這一主題。在本模塊結束之前，你將要完成一份有趣的同伴互評作業。

秦始皇的一生，歷史文獻中的秦始皇（一）The Life of Qin Shi Huang, and Qin Shi Huang in Historical Texts Part I

《史記秦始皇本紀》是目前我們所知古文獻裏面對秦始皇一生描寫最全面也是最詳細的一篇文章，也是所有秦始皇傳記的基礎。在本模塊中，我們將通過學習這一歷史文獻來了解秦始皇的一生，並進一步了解秦軍百戰百勝的歷史條件和秘密。

秦始皇的一生，歷史文獻中的秦始皇（二）The Life of Qin Shi Huang, and Qin Shi Huang in Historical Texts Part II

本模塊將繼續學習秦始皇的後半生，在他一統天下後的幾年裏，他的施政方針以及自我評價。最後，我們將探尋秦始皇的失敗究竟從何而來，秦國終究走向了滅亡的原因。

始皇的子孫 Emperor Qin's Descendants

在本模塊中，我們將學習秦始皇的子孫繼位後，如何處理當前局面與政務以及最後他們的悲慘結局。

始皇的祖先－秦的興亡傳奇（上）Emperor Qin's Ancestors: The Rise and Fall of the Qin Dynasty Part I

在本模塊中，我們將了解秦始皇的祖先們，也就是秦國的歷代統治者，學習秦國這一段漫長而跌宕起伏的興亡故事。與此同時，我們還將進一步探索秦國人的本性，以及它是如何決定秦以及其他部族的命運的。

始皇的祖先－秦的興亡傳奇（下）Emperor Qin's Ancestors: The Rise and Fall of the Qin Dynasty Part II

在本模塊中，我們將繼續講述秦的興亡傳奇的下半部分。其中包括繆公過世之後秦國迎來第壹次巨大的衰落重挫，“三家分晉”事件，以及改變秦國甚至中國運勢的商鞅等重要的歷史時刻。這段故事將一一為妳呈現秦國如何抓住時機從壹個弱小的國家成為統壹六國的強國，然後在幾十年間滅亡的興亡過程。

始皇的臣子：李斯與秦的滅亡 Emperor Qin's Assistant Minister Li Si and The Fall of Qin

在本模塊中我們將開始討論始皇的臣子中最重要的一個人——李斯。李斯在歷史上占有重要地位，並且與秦國的滅亡又密切關系。我們將從《史記》的《李斯列傳》著手，解讀李斯以及他的故事給我們後人留下的思考。

後人如何看始皇：漢代畫像石中的秦始皇 Emperor Qin's Portraits in the Han-dynasty Art

歡迎來到本課程的最後一個模塊。本模塊將牽涉到漢代人是如何形塑秦始皇的歷史形象的。通過這一模塊的講解，你將對秦始皇有更形象的了解，更加接近歷史。
