Here is the first new translation for over thirty years of Polybius' Histories , the major source for our knowledge of the Eternal City's early rise to power, covering the years of the Second Punic War, the defeat of Hannibal, and Rome's pivotal victories in the Mediterranean. Polybius, himself a leading Greek politician of the time, attributes Rome's success to the greatness of its constitution and the character of its people, but also allows Fortune a role in shaping world events. This new translation by Robin Waterfield includes the first five books in their entirety, and all of the fragmentary Books 6 and 12. Brian McGing's lucid introduction discusses the period covered by the Histories , Polybius' major role in the reconstruction of Greece after the defeat of the Achaean League, the themes and subject matter of the individual books, Polybius' outspoken views on how (and how not), and his significance for historiography. The book also includes succinct, clear notes, maps, a glossary, and an index of proper names.

在古代,政治思想家一般按照统治者的人数,把政体划分为三种。一个人统治的,叫君主制;少数人统治的,叫贵族制;多数人统治的,叫民主制。但除此之外,人们发现还有一些国家,它们的政体非常特殊。这些国家可能有多个不同的人或者部门,各自掌握了一部分权力,共同进行统治。...

这本整体看来还是翻译得很谨慎【有极个别的地方把什么philos symmachos之类的混起来有点无奈】。只收了前六卷和十二卷部分残篇,残篇不大全。主要是Walbank实在是太好用了所以相比别的几本oxford,实用性不够高吧。。。
