的确比Meier更详实 但还是Krostenko 选择Meier的原因(在关键节点上停顿下来审时度势)更深得我心。
评分偉大的凯撒。本書曆史性大於文學性,背景内容的繁冗影嚮了可讀性,適於對羅馬史有了解的人閲讀。
评分没读完自我放弃了
评分相比盐野七生老太太对凯撒略显崇拜的描述(但老太太那两本依然很棒),这位作者作为专业历史学家显得更为客观,同时也为读者展现了罗马的政治制度和现实,让人认识到凯撒的诞生和他的历史背景脱不开关系。凯撒军事才能一流,而政治上最大的错误就是没意识到大众还没准备好迎接一位皇帝,而他的仁慈成为了布鲁图等人杀死他的机会。喜欢这本传记!
评分语言很简单,但却很耐看。像小说一样精彩。
Adrian Goldsworthy was born in 1969 in Cardiff. He was educated in Penarth and then read Ancient and Modern History at St. John's College, Oxford, where he subsequently completed his doctorate in ancient history. His D.Phil. Thesis was the basis for his first book, The Roman Army At War 100 BC - AD 200, which looked at how the Roman army actually operated on campaign and in battle.
For several years he taught in a number of universities, and began to write for a wider audience. A succession of books followed dealing with aspects of ancient military history, including Roman Warfare, The Punic Wars (which was later re-issued as the Fall of Carthage), Cannae, In the Name of Rome and the Complete Roman Army. More recently he has looked at wider themes, combining the military focus with discussion of politics and society in a biography of Caesar, and a study of the decline and fall of the Roman Empire, titled How Rome Fell (although released in the UK as The Fall of the West). His latest book is a paired biography of Antony and Cleopatra.
He is now a full time writer, and no longer teaches, although he is currently a Visiting Fellow at the University of Newcastle. However, he frequently gives one off lectures and talks both to universities and other groups in the UK, USA, Canada, and Europe. In the last couple of years audiences have included local history societies, graduates and undergraduates in a range of countries, the cadets of VMI, and the distinguished cast of a new production of Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra. He frequently appears as a talking head or presenter in TV documentaries and has acted as consultant on both documentaries and dramas. He will appear in six of the eight episodes of the forthcoming When Rome ruled series for National Geographic. He often appears on radio.

Tracing the extraordinary trajectory of the great Roman emperor’s life, Goldsworthy covers not only the great Roman emperor’s accomplishments as charismatic orator, conquering general, and powerful dictator but also lesser-known chapters during which he was high priest of an exotic cult, captive of pirates, seducer not only of Cleopatra but also of the wives of his two main political rivals, and rebel condemned by his own country. Ultimately, Goldsworthy realizes the full complexity of Caesar’s character and shows why his political and military leadership continues to resonate some two thousand years later.
In the introduction to his biography of the great Roman emperor, Adrian Goldsworthy writes, “Caesar was at times many things, including a fugitive, prisoner, rising politician, army leader, legal advocate, rebel, dictator . . . as well as husband, father, lover and adulterer.” In this landmark biography, Goldsworthy examines Caesar as military leader, all of these roles and places his subject firmly within the context of Roman society in the first century B.C.
近七百页的巨作,我看了一个星期,掩卷时,忍不住唏嘘,即使是凯撒这样的大帝,一生精华也不过是区区七百页,人生数十载,譬如朝露。 他在事业上背负巨债,被亲近的人背叛,最后众叛亲离,死于众人之手;他的第二段婚姻结束于妻子出轨的丑闻,一生背负同性恋绯闻,被大众嘲笑是...
评分 评分好看!与其说是凯撒的个人传记,不如说是罗马共和国末期的政治军事全景。 凯撒的个人经历充分反映了中国的那句老话:时势造英雄。凯撒是一个交了好运的彻头彻尾的投机分子,但其个人能力与魅力也不能忽视。 正像作者在后记中所说,如果凯撒不是出生在这年代,可能他又会是一个...
评分最近读完《恺撒:巨人的一生》。作者是英国的Adrian Goldsworthy(阿德里安·戈兹沃西),陆大鹏译,社会科学文献出版社出版,是著名的甲骨文丛书之一。 2013-2014年,我用了差不多一年时间,读完盐野七生的15本《罗马人的故事》。其中,尤利西斯•恺撒算得上是最让人念念不...
评分花了将近半个月的时间看完了《恺撒:巨人的一生》,这是目前我手上关于罗马历史最厚的一本,中间如果不是五一假期耽搁,或许会看的更快。 前面介绍了前1世纪罗马的政治形式,从前509年共和国成立到前1世纪这四百多年的时间里,虽然陆续征服了意大利、西班牙、迦太基与马其顿等...
