Thucydides called his account of two decades of war between Athens and Sparta "a possession for all time," and indeed it is the first and still most famous work in the Western historical tradition. Considered essential reading for generals, statesmen, and liberally educated citizens for more than 2,000 years, The Peloponnesian War is a mine of military, moral, political, and philosophical wisdom. However, this classic book has long presented obstacles to the uninitiated reader. Robert Strassler's new edition removes these obstacles by providing a new coherence to the narrative overall, and by effectively reconstructing the lost cultural context that Thucydides shared with his original audience. Based on the venerable Richard Crawley translation, updated and revised for modern readers. The Landmark Thucydides includes a vast array of superbly designed and presented maps, brief informative appendices by outstanding classical scholars on subjects of special relevance to the text, explanatory marginal notes on each page, an index of unprecedented subtlety, and numerous other useful features. In any list of the Great Books of Western Civilization, The Peloponnesian War stands near the top. This authoritative new edition will ensure that its greatness is appreciated by future generations.
《伯罗奔尼撒战争史》第二卷第二章,叙述了战争刚刚开始的情况。当时双方尚未正式接战,斯巴达人和盟友们陈兵于科林斯地峡,派了一个叫米利西佩斯的人前往雅典,探寻对方在大兵压境的逼迫下是否有和谈的意愿。米利西佩斯来到雅典城外,见到了雅典的市民和官员,却被禁止进城。...
評分十八年前译者在接到翻译西学名著《伯罗奔尼撒战争史》的任务时,心里确实有些忐忑不安,十八年后的今天依然如此。古希腊文明博大精深,对于西方乃至全人类文明贡献巨大,影响深远。译者自知学力不济,难以胜任。因为自己对于希腊的历史和文化,充其量只能算是个初学者。虽然三...
評分看到第七卷。西西里远征。倾尽整个帝国力量的远征军全军覆灭。 撤退的时候,描写跟着军队被撤走的士兵看到被遗弃的活人,“全军上下泪水涟涟”。我不禁也是泫然欲泣了。——看历史的时候,我总是难以像平常那样产生共情的,毕竟两千多年前的事件,如果没有修昔底德或者其他史家...

評分法律保护被压迫者,伯里克利演说中提到;书中经常写:某某的儿子某某,非常神奇,可能跟中国的古人一样,对于祖先对于家族,他们也是心存虔敬的。 看这本书的过程中,我开始理解《指环王》中很多我以前不能理解的东西。在古代的世界里,有居住在海上的人民,有居住在平原...
注釋可以看這個版本。據任軍鋒老師說,目前最好的英譯本是Jeremy Mynott翻譯的Thucydides: The War of the Peloponnesians and the Athenians, Cambridge University Press 2013年齣版
评分四星半。精妙的書籍設計,大量比較準確的地圖、appendix的常識介紹都十分適閤初學者。Crawley的譯文自由度過大準確度也比較一般[當然修昔底德的希臘文實在是太難-_-#不是每個人都和Hornblower那樣強迫癥],常識介紹也實在有點太“常識”瞭,適閤非曆史非Classics專業學生。
评分這個版本真的做得太好瞭。地圖、年代、段落總結都做得非常詳細,良心啊。
