In 1935, with a doctorate in art history and no prospect of a job, the 26-year-old Ernst Gombrich was invited by a publishing acquaintance to attempt a history of the world for younger readers. Amazingly, he completed the task in an intense six weeks, and Eine kurze Weltgeschichte für junge Leser was published in Vienna to immediate success, and is now available in seventeen languages across the world.

Toward the end of his long life, Gombrich embarked upon a revision and, at last, an English translation. A Little History of the World presents his lively and involving history to English-language readers for the first time. Superbly designed and freshly illustrated, this is a book to be savored and collected.

In forty concise chapters, Gombrich tells the story of man from the stone age to the atomic bomb. In between emerges a colorful picture of wars and conquests, grand works of art, and the spread and limitations of science. This is a text dominated not by dates and facts, but by the sweep of mankind’s experience across the centuries, a guide to humanity’s achievements and an acute witness to its frailties.

The product of a generous and humane sensibility, this timeless account makes intelligible the full span of human history.

大手笔写的小历史——贡布里希的《世界小史》 “如果你想知道埃及到底在哪里,我建议你去问一只燕子。每年秋天,当天气转凉,燕子们飞向南方。它们越过群山飞临意大利,继续飞过一片海域,然后到达非洲离欧洲最近的地方。埃及不远了。”如此写世界历史,说明大手笔毕竟是大手...

《圣经》有云:日光之下,并无新事。既言“新事”,必有旧闻,古今新旧,是为历史。此语寥寥数言,就道出了历史的规律性。《圣经》诞生于人类的童年,已然以超脱者的姿态注意到了历史的循环往复。“一切历史都是当代史”,及至今天,兴乱治废、成王败寇的往事仍然改头换...

看作者的名字,還以為是日本人,但又有點不像。打開書來看,才知道作者是猶太人,只是名字譯得怪怪的。這本書的中文版在2004年推出,原著卻是在70年前(1935年)寫成的,是次再版是因為作者剛作出修潤,而中文版便趁此推出譯本。 有人看到歷史書便頭痛,因為歷史書多是沉悶的...

“从前……”我真的被这样有趣而优雅的叙述方式给吸引住了,那么多的“从前”一直追问下去,无所休止,直到“从前的从前……”一个个久远的故事就这样铺展开来,似乎它们已经亲切的笼罩在你的周围了。这是贡布里希《写给大家的简明世界史》的开篇,在写这本书的时候,这位伟大...

作者的'世界'也太小了吧

有声书。这是一本写给小朋友的书,严肃而美。听的时候我不断想两件事,如果给小朋友讲历史,我会怎么讲?以及,历史观对一个历史学家是多么重要啊。

简明好看,带我们回家。我们的家不仅是中国,而是所有的文明。
