Well now! I'll tell you the truth. Will dreads you to hear it, but I'll just tell it you. You mun know--" but here the poor woman's words failed her, and she could do nothing but sit rocking herself backwards and forwards, with sad eyes, straight-gazing into Susan's face, as if they tried to tell the tale of agony which the quivering lips refused to utter. Those wretched, stony eyes forced the tears down Susan's cheeks, and, as if this sympathy gave the mother strength, she went on in a low voice--"I had a daughter once, my heart's darling. Her father thought I made too much on her, and that she'd grow marred staying at home; so he said she mun go among strangers and learn to rough it. She were young, and liked the thought of seeing a bit of the world; and her father heard on a place in Manchester. Well! I'll not weary you. That poor girl were led astray; and first thing we heard on it, was when a letter of her father's was sent back by her missus, saying she'd left her place, or, to speak right, the master had turned her into the street soon as he had heard of her condition--and she not seventeen!"She now cried aloud; and Susan wept too.

文明的进程：文明的社会发生和心理发生的研究（睿文馆）
本书是埃利亚斯的成名作，出版后轰动西方世界，成为畅销书。人们通常把文明看成一种现成的财富，但作者认为文明是一种过程，是历经数百年逐步演变的结果，是心理逐步积淀规范的结果。而且，作者推翻了传统社会学把人和社会看成是两个各自独立的实体的两分法，提出两者不可分割，正是宏观的社会和微观的人之间的互动激荡形成了文明的进程。总之，本书提供了一种新的历史研究方法：不仅研究社会经济，而且考察人的情绪气质和思维方式的变迁；不仅重视重大事件，也从小处着手，探讨人的行为举止，日常生活，以小见大。是一部将历史学、政治学、心理学、经济学、种族学、人类学和社会学等熔为一炉的百科全书式的人文经典。
