摘要

关于技术狂妄及其可怕后果的故事具有经久不衰的吸引力。希腊神话中的德达鲁斯和伊卡洛斯是技术史学家的典范，就像俄狄浦斯神话对弗洛伊德精神分析学的影响一样强大。德达鲁斯和伊卡洛斯父子被囚禁在克里特岛的迷宫中。他们决心逃走，选择了一条空中路线，于是用柳枝做成翅膀，用蜡将它们连接在一起，也将自己连接在一起。父亲警告儿子不要飞得离太阳太近。年轻人无视警告，他的蜡融化了，淹死在海里。

His Majesty’s Airship: The Life and Tragic Death of the World’s Largest Flying Machine—Samuel C. Gwynne (New York, NY, USA: Scribner, 2003, 299 pp.)

Stories of technological hubris and its dire consequences have an unfailing attraction. The Greek myth of Dedalus and Icarus is a paradigm for historians of technology as powerful as that of Oedipus is for Freudian psychoanalysis. Father and son, Dedalus and Icarus, are held prisoners in a labyrinth on the Island of Crete. Determined to escape, they choose a route through the air and so create wings made of willow branches, connecting them together and to themselves with wax. The father warns his son not to fly too close to the sun. The youth ignores the warning, his wax melts, and he drowns in the ocean.
