圖書描述

A sweeping, revisionist history of the Roman Empire from one of our foremost classicists.

Ancient Rome was an imposing city even by modern standards, a sprawling imperial metropolis of more than a million inhabitants, a "mixture of luxury and filth, liberty and exploitation, civic pride and murderous civil war" that served as the seat of power for an empire that spanned from Spain to Syria. Yet how did all this emerge from what was once an insignificant village in central Italy? In S.P.Q.R., world-renowned classicist Mary Beard narrates the unprecedented rise of a civilization that even two thousand years later still shapes many of our most fundamental assumptions about power, citizenship, responsibility, political violence, empire, luxury, and beauty.

From the foundational myth of Romulus and Remus to 212 ce—nearly a thousand years later—when the emperor Caracalla gave Roman citizenship to every free inhabitant of the empire, S.P.Q.R. (the abbreviation of "The Senate and People of Rome") examines not just how we think of ancient Rome but challenges the comfortable historical perspectives that have existed for centuries by exploring how the Romans thought of themselves: how they challenged the idea of imperial rule, how they responded to terrorism and revolution, and how they invented a new idea of citizenship and nation.

Opening the book in 63 bce with the famous clash between the populist aristocrat Catiline and Cicero, the renowned politician and orator, Beard animates this “terrorist conspiracy,” which was aimed at the very heart of the Republic, demonstrating how this singular event would presage the struggle between democracy and autocracy that would come to define much of Rome’s subsequent history. Illustrating how a classical democracy yielded to a self-confident and self-critical empire, S.P.Q.R. reintroduces us, though in a wholly different way, to famous and familiar characters—Hannibal, Julius Caesar, Cleopatra, Augustus, and Nero, among others—while expanding the historical aperture to include those overlooked in traditional histories: the women, the slaves and ex-slaves, conspirators, and those on the losing side of Rome’s glorious conquests.

Like the best detectives, Beard sifts fact from fiction, myth and propaganda from historical record, refusing either simple admiration or blanket condemnation. Far from being frozen in marble, Roman history, she shows, is constantly being revised and rewritten as our knowledge expands. Indeed, our perceptions of ancient Rome have changed dramatically over the last fifty years, and S.P.Q.R., with its nuanced attention to class inequality, democratic struggles, and the lives of entire groups of people omitted from the historical narrative for centuries, promises to shape our view of Roman history for decades to come.

不是一部敘事性的羅馬史,而是整閤進瞭最新的考古成果,把古羅馬的政治經濟、社會生活的演變輪廓勾勒齣來,顯得時間綫索感不是那麼強,當然也是因為我對這段曆史太陌生的緣故。不過還是切實體會到古羅馬對今日西方世界的深遠影響。

4.5.雖然錶麵上是麵嚮general reader的,但各種懷疑主義視角與inside joke一類的論述又分明是針對對古典學多少有瞭解的群體。。。

这是我第一本读完的罗马史作品 这本书的作者是玛丽·比尔德,英国剑桥大学教授,在BBC多部纪录片中出镜,在纪录片《相约古罗马》,能够看到她飘逸的金色长发,行走在罗马的古籍,行走在罗马的大道上,对事迹和内容娓娓道来,就好像她刚刚从古罗马回来一般。而《SPQR》就是一部...

罗马史向来有很多种写法,最受大众欢迎的显然是军事史和英雄史,政治史和“法治”史更学究一些,风俗史等等也有不少读者。在众多史著中,Beard的这部作品更显突出,作者在谋篇布局中,将元老院的角色放在了中心舞台上,各色人等鱼贯上下,与元老制产生互动,在互动的过程中,梳...

本書自2015年發售以來,一直都在亞馬遜的暢銷榜上蟬聯,分數也都高居不下,令人想不注意也難。我是等到了價格比較親民的平裝版問世了,才捨得下手。Mary Beard這個名字其實在之前我就已經認識,我在Youtube上偶然看了她替BBC拍的紀錄片:“Meet the Romans”就印象深刻。之後我...
