历史上,人类文明的重心犹如太阳一样在不断地由东向西移动着,最古老的文明无疑是由东方的中国、印度和古埃及创造出来的;但阳光不久便洒向了地中海沿岸,那里孕育出了灿烂的希腊、罗马文明;如果说欧洲漫长的中世纪似阴云蔽日,那么,15世纪意大利文艺复兴运动则如日耀中天,构成了人类文明史上最辉煌的时刻;之后,“太阳”继续西移——先是西欧,然后是北美。 当然,太阳是不会凝住不动的。整个人类历史,从某种意义上说,就是各种文明的兴衰更替史。今天,当“西方的没落”已经成为欧美一代有识之士共同的叹喟时,有人又将目光投向东方:太阳会从东方再次升起吗?

After that, Continue westward - first in Western Europe and then in North America. Of course, the sun will not cling to it. In a sense, the entire history of mankind is the history of the rise and fall of all civilizations. Today, when the “decline of the West” has become the common sigh of the generation of Europeans and Americans of the same generation, some people turn their eyes to the East again: Will the sun rise again from the east?
