'The greatest historian that ever lived' Such was Macaulay's verdict on Thucydides (c. 460-400 BC) and his history of the Peloponnesian War, the momentous struggle between Athens and Sparta as rival powers and political systems that lasted for twenty-seven years from 431 to 404 BC, involved virtually the whole of the Greek world, and ended in the fall of Athens. Thucydides himself was a participant in the war; to his history he brings an awesome intellect, brilliant narrative, and penetrating analysis of the nature of power, as it affects both states and individuals. Of his own work Thucydides wrote: 'I shall be content if [my history] is judged useful by those who will want to have a clear understanding of what happened - and, such is the human condition, will happen again ...It was composed as a permanent legacy, not a showpiece for a single hearing.' So it has proved. Of the prose writers of Greece and Rome Thucydides has had more lasting influence on western thought than all but Plato and Aristotle. This new edition combines a masterly translation with comprehensive supporting material.

古希腊的精神 ——读《伯罗奔尼撒战争史》中的伯里克利演说词 “我不想作一篇冗长的演说来评述一些你们都很熟悉的问题:所以我不说我们用以取得我们的势力的一些军事行动,也不说我们父辈英勇地抵抗我们希腊内部的和外部敌人的战役。我所要说的,首先是讨论我们曾经受到考验...

评分一个朋友,苦于儿子临睡前要听故事:不讲孩子不上床,讲了孩子又不叫停。“现在,我只好每晚给他读一段《伯罗奔尼撒战争史》。” 修昔底德会很欣慰的,他的著作竟有如此实际而温馨的功效。而一个成年读者,将发现来自伯罗奔尼撒的消息与现实生活的距离可以这么近。这种“近”...

非常优秀的英译本,以1942年Powell修订过的Jones校勘本为底本,比洛布依据的Hude本善,略逊于同样基于Jones但是参了不少Alberti本的Mynott本。序言不仅简明扼要地介绍了修昔底德的写作风格、史学价值与影响,以及修昔底德的接受史,还涉及了不少相关学术动态。译文比Crawley和Warner准确,理解起来也不算困难。尾注没Mynott详细但也还能接受。就是没有保留Section编码这点emmm。
评分still good, but it seems that this is not the best translated version
评分总觉得古希腊人活得好不真实...
