The Birth of Classical Europe pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
To an extraordinary extent we continue to live in the shadow of the classical world. At every level from languages to calendars to political systems, we are the descendants of a 'classical Europe', using frames of reference created by ancient Mediterranean cultures. As this consistently fresh and surprising new book makes clear, however, this was no less true for the inhabitants of those classical civilizations themselves, whose myths, history, and buildings were an elaborate engagement with an already old and revered past filled with great leaders and writers, emigrations and battles. Indeed, much of the reason we know so much about the classical past is the obsessive importance it held for so many generations of Greeks and Romans, who interpreted and reinterpreted their changing casts of heroes and villains. Figures such as Alexander the Great and Augustus Caesar loom large in our imaginations today, but they were themselves fascinated by what had preceded them. "The Birth of Classical Europe" is therefore both an authoritative history, and also a fascinating attempt to show how our own changing values and interests have shaped our feelings about an era which is by some measures very remote but by others startlingly close.

去年底(2018),中國的出版社新思文化推出了一套引人矚目的重點作品“企鵝歐洲史”,相信應該吸引了許多喜好歐洲歷史的書友注意。這套多卷本的大部頭自2004年開始出版以來,在歐美學界已經享譽盛名,每一卷的作者,都是該領域內的重量級學者,例如,我個人注意已久,第二卷《羅...
评分«企鹅欧洲史1:古典欧洲的诞生»从公元前1750年开始,至公元425年结束,横跨2000多年的希腊和罗马早期时代。然而,跨度如此大的历史,竟然只用区区400页的篇幅进行阐述,虽说这是一部简史,但鉴于该系列其他分册的厚度,不知作者采用如此精简的内容用意何在。如此少的篇幅...
评分导读 “古典”是对英文classical一词的中译,这个词与文艺复兴以来西方形成的一门新学科的名称Classics(古典学)同出自拉丁文形容词classicus,原义主要指罗马高级别的公民,如“头等公民的”之类,引申义则意味出类拔萃、完美无缺、权威和典型。近现代西方人又把古希腊罗马时...
评分转推书评:三星半吧,这是一本对新手不友好的古典欧洲简史(公元前1750-公元425年)。 把两千多年的历史写在一本书中,必定只会保留一些重大事件和时代的基本脉络,在这一点看本书的确是极简。一方面,越早期的历史所遗留下的痕迹就越少,只能根据一些发掘出的遗址以及一些零星...
