人们说博物馆是唯一负责记录社会进步的机构,是精神产品的“超级市场”,是普及科学文化的“百科全书”,是人类文明的金字塔。1999年的金秋十月,我在杭州召开的中国科协首届年会上认识了一位一生热爱博物馆,并为博物馆的建设发展做出了很大贡献的人,他就是全国人大常委、杭州大学教授毛昭晰先生。十年可树木百年才树人在漫长的人生旅途中,童年不过是很短的一个阶段。然而,在这个阶段所受到的良好教育常常使一个人受益终生;而在这个阶段所表现出来的,对外部世界和周围环境的兴趣和爱好,也往往成为一个人穷其一生的追求与探索。毛昭晰的“博物馆情结”正是始于他纯真的童年。当毛昭晰还是一个四五岁的孩子时,他在浙江大学当教授 People say that the museum is the only agency responsible for keeping track of social progress, the “super market” of spiritual products, the “encyclopedia” for popularizing science and culture, and the pyramid of human civilization.
