The Gallic War, published on the eve of the civil war which led to the end of the Roman Republic, is an autobiographical account written by one of the most famous figures of European history. On one level a straightforward narrative of the campaigns Caesar fought against the Gauls, Germans and Britons, it also serves a deeper political purpose, revealing him as a commander of breathtaking flair, courage and persistence - a man of the people, a man without rival. This new translation reflects the purity of Caesar's Latin while preserving the pace and flow of his momentous narrative of the conquest of Gaul and the first Roman invasions of Britain and Germany. The introduction includes a survey of Caesar's role and reputation in later thought, while detailed notes, maps, a table of dates, and glossary make this the most useful edition available.

Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

评分薄薄的一本书,“兵贵神速”、“因粮于敌”、“置之死地而后生”、“善攻者,动于九天之上;善守者,藏于九地之下”、“一鼓作气”、“上兵伐谋,其次伐交,再次野战,最次攻城”、“敌为我所动”这些兵法都能看出来。古今中外,作战的基本原则,都是相通。
评分首先要说这是一本好书,2000多年前的人能把一个历史大事件写成这样,已经很不错了。中文版翻译得也很棒。 读完书我想说说这场战争中的罗马军团,凯撒在《高卢战记》中只是零星片断地提到了这些军队,因此要确切地说在高卢都有哪些军团,以及它们在何处做了些什么,比较困难。由...
评分以前觉得这本书难以消化,现在多少能理解一些了。开篇之处,“厄尔维几人”正打算举族迁徙(去进攻别人),为此而广泛种植,大买牲口。这说明这个部族正处于从游牧向农耕的过渡阶段。农耕技术的扩散带来人口增长,人口增长导致各部族之间的摩擦和战争增多。高卢战记这个名字也...
