在近代以前，歷史學是培養各種領袖與人才的必備教育，因為它能夠使人對過去「稽其興壞成敗之理」（《史記‧太史公自序》）。「中國古代歷史與人物」這門課程希望回到歷史學的原點，藉由具體的事例，來探索「讀歷史到底有什麼用？」。

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」。

Frequently asked questions
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
You will be eligible for a full refund until two weeks after your payment date, or (for courses that have just launched) until two weeks after the first session of the course begins, whichever is later. You cannot receive a refund once you’ve earned a Course Certificate, even if you complete the course within the two-week refund period. See our full refund policy.
