The Spirit of Laws is one of the most influential books of all time. This masterpiece of political philosophy was widely read throughout Europe, attracted an especially enthusiastic readership in England, and had a profound effect on the framers of the American Constitution. Montesquieu (1689-1755), already famous and controversial through his Persian Letters, a work of his youth in which he humorously satirized the foibles of French society, turned in his later years to this serious treatise on the nature of law. But though the subject itself was profound, this gravitas did not inhibit the famous Montesquieu wit. Master of the pithy bon mot, he managed to survey a great deal of political and philosophical territory while keeping his readers charmed with memorable and artfully turned phrases. "Liberty," he says, "consists in the ability to do what one ought to desire and in not being forced to do what one ought not to desire." Concerning the unpopularity of the English in France, he says it is due to their arrogance, which is such that even in peace "they seem to negotiate with none but enemies."
The scope of this masterful work is truly prodigious. Montesquieu explores the essentials of good government; compares and contrasts despotism, monarchy, and democracy; and discusses the factors that lead to corruption of governments. Among the many other topics considered are education of the citizenry, crime and punishment, abuse of power and of liberty, individual rights, taxation, slavery, the role of women, the influence of climate on the temper of a people and their form of government, commerce, religion, and a host of additional subjects.
The Spirit of Laws is essential and genuinely enjoyable reading for anyone interested in the development of democracy.

这个版本的封面古朴简洁一如著者的文风。封面上是著者本人的一个右侧面头像素描,简单的勾勒和黑暗的对比,目视前方,嘴角微微上扬,淡定,博学,专注之感油然而生。如著者在原序中的话“我也是画家”般透着一种自行从容。当一个人花了20年去完成一部书是,这正是他的最好写照...
評分第一,第三栏下方提到英文有个词是independance,显然是independence。 第二,第五栏中部给了英文原文和张雁深、许明龙两位先生的翻译,我觉得如果英文是法文的准确翻译的话,那么张、许二公或许都理解错了。 英文如下: But, it does not result from this that a religion ...
評分论法的精神,这本书大概770页,我看了大概二十个小时,这本书是孟德斯鸠的代表作。 个人推荐指数四星,因为这本书影响太大了,原本想给五星,但这本书太难啃了,读起来相当艰辛,外加上这是我读的第一本法律书籍,给我带来了些许困难。 本书大体从分析了共和国和君主专制国不...
評分 評分乍一听到书的题目,我本以为这是一部法学著作,在读完这本《论法的精神》之后,我改变了看法,自动将这本书分为了三部分,即对书的整体认知分为三个部分,对于孟德斯鸠其人也有了更为深入的认识,从一开始的钦佩到后来的折服到最后的客观,也可谓是“一波三折”。孟德斯鸠...
