Alexander the Great pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
The remarkable life of Alexander the Great, one of the greatest military geniuses of all time, vividly told by one of the world's leading experts in Greek history. With all the intensity, insight, and narrative drive that made The Spartans such a hit with critics and readers, Paul Cartledge's Alexander the Great: glowingly illuminates the brief but iconic life of Alexander (356-323 BC), king of Macedon, conqueror of the Persian Empire, and founder of a new world order. Cartledge, the distinguished scholar and historian long acknowledged as the leading international authority on ancient Sparta and Greece, brilliantly evokes Alexander's remarkable political and military accomplishments, leads us along the geographical path of his victorious armies, and compellingly charting the tremendous field of this warrior hero's influence. Alexander's legacy has had an astounding impact on military tacticians, scholars, and statesmen—in his own lifetime and in ours. In various countries and at various times he has been seen as hero, holy man, Christian saint, a new Achilles, philosopher, scientist, prophet, and visionary. Cartledge brilliantly explains why and how Alexander is endlessly fascinating, with a view to a better understanding of such fundamental topics as charismatic leadership, imperialism, and Middle Eastern geopolitics.

这本书读来就像是老师上课时讲稿一样,没有过于生动的故事,更多的是引用古人阿里安等人资料讲述亚历山大,并一再强调资料不确定性,这书中你能得到是亚历山大在征服波斯之后为什么选择东征,是如同他母亲一样狂热的宗教信仰,加上腓力给他的高战斗力的军队,加上他的无以伦无军事天赋...
評分A very informative and insightful read for those who are interested in history in general and, in particular, the legend of the ancient world.
評分P39 “凯撒称帝后不久” 没错,这里说的就是盖乌斯·朱利乌斯·凯撒,一个从来不曾称帝 —— 不管这里的’帝‘指的是rex,king,emperor,augustus还是后来的caesar —— 的人。 这算是历史常识了。
評分无意中买到《波斯少年》,读起来不吃力,很多地名、人名和事件虽然不甚了解,但翻译者语调平静,读来很有历史感,或者说很希望发生的事情就是真实发生过的。 后来逐渐看到一些关于亚历山大大帝的故事,来源也很丰富,有来自阿里安的《远征记》,有来自《一千零一夜》,还有就是...
