国际关系史杰作,分析透彻,条理清晰,不偏不倚,出色地诠释了一战的复杂成因与悲剧性。惟行文过长、人物众多,如叙事更精炼些并添加人物表便可大大降低阅读难度。

The Sleepwalkers 在线电子书 图书描述

One of The New York Times Book Review’s 10 Best Books of the Year

Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize (History)

The Sleepwalkers: How Europe Went to War in 1914 is historian Christopher Clark’s riveting account of the explosive beginnings of World War I.

Drawing on new scholarship, Clark offers a fresh look at World War I, focusing not on the battles and atrocities of the war itself, but on the complex events and relationships that led a group of well-meaning leaders into brutal conflict.

Clark traces the paths to war in a minute-by-minute, action-packed narrative that cuts between the key decision centers in Vienna, Berlin, St. Petersburg, Paris, London, and Belgrade, and examines the decades of history that informed the events of 1914 and details the mutual misunderstandings and unintended signals that drove the crisis forward in a few short weeks.

Meticulously researched and masterfully written, Christopher Clark’s The Sleepwalkers is a dramatic and authoritative chronicle of Europe’s descent into a war that tore the world apart.

On the morning of June 28, 1914, when Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife, Sophie Chotek, arrived at Sarajevo railway station, Europe was at peace. Thirty-seven days later, it was at war. The conflict that resulted would kill more than fifteen million people, destroy three empires, and permanently alter world history.

The Sleepwalkers reveals in gripping detail how the crisis leading to World War I unfolded. Drawing on fresh sources, it traces the paths to war in a minute-by-minute, action-packed narrative that cuts among the key decision centers in Vienna, Berlin, St. Petersburg, Paris, London, and Belgrade. Distinguished historian Christopher Clark examines the decades of history that informed the events of 1914 and details the mutual misunderstandings and unintended signals that drove the crisis forward in a few short weeks.

How did the Balkans—a peripheral region far from Europe's centers of power and wealth—come to be the center of a drama of such magnitude? How had European nations organized themselves into opposing alliances, and how did these nations manage to carry out foreign policy as a result? Clark reveals a Europe racked by chronic problems—a fractured world of instability and militancy that was, fatefully, saddled with a conspicuously ineffectual set of political leaders. These rulers, who prided themselves on their modernity and rationalism, stumbled through crisis after crisis and finally convinced themselves that war was the only answer.

Meticulously researched and masterfully written, The Sleepwalkers is a magisterial account of one of the most compelling dramas of modern times.

Critical Praise

“An important book. . . . One of the most impressive and stimulating studies of the period ever published.” —Max Hastings, The Sunday Times

“Excellent. . . . The book is stylishly written as well as superb scholarship. No analysis of the origins of the First World War will henceforth be able to bypass this magisterial work.” —Ian Kershaw, BBC History

“The most readable account of the origins of the First World War since Barbara Tuchman’s The Guns of August. The difference is that The Sleepwalkers is a lovingly researched work of the highest scholarship.” —Niall Ferguson

“This compelling examination of the causes of World War I deserves to become the new standard one-volume account of that contentious subject.” —Foreign Affairs

“Clark is a masterly historian. . . . His account vividly reconstructs key decision points while deftly sketching the context driving them. . . . A magisterial work.” —The Wall Street Journal

“A monumental new volume. . . . Revelatory, even revolutionary. . . . Clark has done a masterful job explaining the inexplicable.” —The Boston Globe

“Easily the best book ever written on the subject. . . . A work of rare beauty that combines meticulous research with sensitive analysis and elegant prose. The enormous weight of its quality inspires amazement and awe. . . . Academics should take note: Good history can still be a good story.” —The Washington Post

“A meticulously researched, superbly organized, and handsomely written account.” —MHQ: The Quarterly Journal of Military History

“Superb. . . . One of the great mysteries of history is how Europe’s great powers could have stumbled into World War I. . . . This is the single best book I have read on this important topic.” —Fareed Zakaria

“A thoroughly comprehensive and highly readable account. . . . The brilliance of Clark’s far-reaching history is that we are able to discern how the past was genuinely prologue. . . . In conception, steely scholarship and piercing insights, his book is a masterpiece.” —Harold Evans, The New York Times Book Review

“As spacious and convincing a treatment as has yet appeared. . . . Clark’s prose is clear and laced with color.” —The Daily Beast

“A great book. . . An amazing narrative history of the crisis and the larger context.” —Slate

“A superb account of the causes of the first world war. . . . Clark brilliantly puts this illogical conflict into context.” —The Guardian

“This book is as authoritative as it is gripping. . . . Clark provides a vivid panorama of the jostling among Europe’s policymakers. . . . The reader is rapt as ‘watchful but unseeing’ protagonists head for inconceivable horror.” —The Independent

“Excellent. . . . Where Clark excels is in explaining how the pre-war diplomatic maneuvers resembled a giant exercise in game theory.”- —The Economist

“Clark’s narrative sophistication, his philosophical awareness, and his almost preternatural command of his sources make The Sleepwalkers an exemplary instance of how to navigate this tricky terrain. The best book on the origins of the First World War that I know.” —Thomas Laqueur, The London Review of Books

“One of 2013’s finest nonfiction books. . . . Offers more up-to-date scholarship than you’ll find in a classic like Barbara Tuchman’s The Guns of August.” —Matthew Yglesias, Slate

The Sleepwalkers 在线电子书 读后感

评分

历史看似在下很大一盘棋实际上没有什么用(。 走向僵化的体系和一战的促成 小约瑟夫.奈在《理解国际冲突》中,将19世纪的均势体系划分为了五个阶段: 1815-1822的欧洲一致 1822-1854间民族主义和民主革命使国际干涉变得困难 1854-1870由于克里米亚战争和德国统一而更动荡 1870-...

去年一戰百年,中信就出了這本《夢遊者》,查了一下,原文版出了一段時間而且頗受好評,而且內容是筆者更感興趣的戰前外交關係跟各國政局的介紹,所以就買了下來,拖到最近繁體版出了才閱讀。 就歷史題材來說,一戰應該算是數一數二殺死最多紙張油墨的,中文也出了不少,各式...

好吧,作为草根我正在校对此书的电子版,不得不感谢中信出版社为我提供了这么一个“兴致盎然”的“大家来找茬”游戏。错译,错别字,两手两脚都用上了,还不够用!原书是极好的,有能力的同学还是阅读英文原版为佳,言简意赅,相当棒。可惜引进版煞风景了,出版社出书前必要的...

1871年,雄图大略的俾斯麦击败了拿破仑三世,攫取了莱茵河对岸的阿尔萨斯和洛林,留下了法国人的眼泪和我们中学课本中震撼人心的《最后一课》,也播下了德法两国世仇的种子。 20多年后,俾斯麦苦心经营的针对法国的大陆联盟体系逐渐走向瓦解。总是在极度悲观与极度乐观之间游走...  

评分

内容很详细,但个人感觉条理较乱,很分散。翻译的确算不上很好,作为一本专业书籍,全书注释很少,非专业人士看这本书还是需要一些其他辅助材料配合。
