Edward Gibbon's six-volume History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (1776-88) is among the most magnificent and ambitious narratives in European literature. Its subject is the fate of one of the world's greatest civilizations over thirteen centuries - its rulers, wars and society, and the events that led to its disastrous collapse. Here, in volumes one and two, Gibbon charts the vast extent and constitution of the Empire from the reign of Augustus to 395 ad. And in a controversial critique, he examines the early Church, with fascinating accounts of the first Christian and last pagan emperors, Constantine and Julian.
Edward Gibbon (1737-1794), English historian. It was on a visit to Rome that he conceived the idea of his magnificent and panoramic history The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (6 vol., 1776--88) which won immediate acclaim, despite some harsh criticism. Gibbon himself was assured of the greatness of his work, which is, indeed, one of the most-read historical works of modern times.

评分蛮族入侵和宗教兴起构成了两个核心主题。在Diocletian奠定格局之后,Constantine和Julian的对题构成了后半部作品的两个高峰
一) 这是一部洋洋六大卷的巨著,共七十一章,一百五十余万词,八千多个注,几乎所有的古典作品都有所涉及,参考的晚期罗马帝国和中世纪的文献资料不知凡几,引证的近代学者达到四百多人。全书起点是奥古斯都定下帝国规模,结尾是波吉奥在罗马废墟上感慨命运无常,中间跨度...
评分这本书的翻译坏到了不可思议的地步。不要说信达雅这些东西,基本的语法都不同,英文里的从句原封不动地变成中文,结果结构混乱不堪,一个长句子可以没有一个主语,也可以有七八个主语。从句和主句结构不分。读起来让人憋气。 我就不理解:哪怕粗略一翻,就会发现无数读不通的病...
评分读了大半年的书,在kindle上要5万多页,看了几个小时进度才增长1%,多少是对耐力的考验。著者和译者当然更是付出了辛勤的努力。 最开始看到这本书,应该是某次在商务汉译学术名著系列的书柜前看到过标题,后来知道了那是节译本,在网上还下了英文版,不过和其他很多书的英文版...
评分【本文作于多年前,系针对商务节编本而言,当时席译本未出】 中译本是根据英文节本翻译的,以篇幅而论,只合原著一小部分。节编者明言,此书是为读过原著的人准备的。我粗略地比较了中、英两种文本,感觉在没有译出的文字中,不少是很有价值的。首先是注释,作者在...
评分1776年的英国出版了两本历史上举足轻重的著作:亚当史密斯的《国富论》和 爱德华吉本 的《罗马帝国衰亡史》。 早年简单看过后者这本大作,认为吉本对罗马帝国衰亡的解读主要集中在皇帝个人执政行为和宗教这两方面,尽管分析详细,但对衰亡原因的理解过于狭隘。而随着近现代考...
