Written four hundred years before the birth of Christ, this detailed contemporary account of the struggle between Athens and Sparta stands an excellent chance of fulfilling the author's ambitious claim that the work "was done to last forever." The conflicts between the two empires over shipping, trade, and colonial expansion came to a head in 431 b.c. in Northern Greece, and the entire Greek world was plunged into 27 years of war. Thucydides applied a passion for accuracy and a contempt for myth and romance in compiling this exhaustively factual record of the disastrous conflict that eventually ended the Athenian empire.
Thucydides (c. 460 B.C. – c. 395 B.C.) (Greek Θουκυδίδης, Thoukydídēs) was a Greek historian and author of the History of the Peloponnesian War, which recounts the 5th century B.C. war between Sparta and Athens to the year 411 B.C. Thucydides has been dubbed the father of "scientific history" due to his strict standards of evidence-gathering and analysis in terms of cause and effect without reference to intervention by the gods, as outlined in his introduction to his work.
He has also been called the father of the school of political realism, which views the relations between nations as based on might rather than right. His classical text is still studied at advanced military colleges worldwide, and the Melian dialogue remains a seminal work of international relations theory.
More generally, Thucydides showed an interest in developing an understanding of human nature to explain behaviour in such crises as plague, genocide (as practised against the Melians), and civil war.
比希羅多德來得踏實 但是少瞭趣味。。
評分4.5
評分修昔底德本人對雅典的民主製的評價並不高,他對伯裏剋利基於公益而采取的策略也並不苛責。他倒是嚴厲批評伯裏剋利的繼承者們錶麵上尊重公眾,實際上卻根本不似伯裏剋利為公眾的公益而謀劃。他認為,他們帶來瞭與伯裏剋利完全不同的結果:在其他和戰爭顯然無關的事務中,私人野心和私人利益引起瞭一些對於雅典人自己和對於他們的同盟國都不利的政策。成功的話,隻會使個人得到名譽和權利;失敗,就會使整個雅典作戰的力量受到損失。之所以會造成這種情況,是因為伯裏剋利的地位,能夠尊重人民的自由,同時又能夠控製他們。因為他從來沒有從不良的動機齣發來追求權力,雖然雅典在名義上是民主政治,事實上權力是在第一個公民手中。但是他的繼承人彼此都是平等的,每個人都想居於首要地位,他們采取籠絡群眾的手段,結果他們喪失瞭對公眾事務的實際領導權。
評分所有研究西方曆史,政治,還有in general civilization的人都得讀這本書。
評分最愛Thucydides!雖然原文很摺磨人,但是譯本看起來真是爽!感覺是2500年前的後現代主義作傢,哈哈哈~

評分法律保护被压迫者,伯里克利演说中提到;书中经常写:某某的儿子某某,非常神奇,可能跟中国的古人一样,对于祖先对于家族,他们也是心存虔敬的。 看这本书的过程中,我开始理解《指环王》中很多我以前不能理解的东西。在古代的世界里,有居住在海上的人民,有居住在平原...
評分十多年前译者在接到翻译西方学术名著《伯罗奔尼撒战争史》的任务时,心里确实有些忐忑不安,今天的心情依然如此。古希腊文明博大精深,对于西方乃至全人类文明贡献巨大,影响深远。我们自知学力不济,难以胜任。自己对于希腊的历史和文化,充其量只能算是个初学者。虽然近30 年...

評分一个朋友,苦于儿子临睡前要听故事:不讲孩子不上床,讲了孩子又不叫停。“现在,我只好每晚给他读一段《伯罗奔尼撒战争史》。” 修昔底德会很欣慰的,他的著作竟有如此实际而温馨的功效。而一个成年读者,将发现来自伯罗奔尼撒的消息与现实生活的距离可以这么近。这种“近”...
