圖書描述

The pope wanted it, Montesquieu used it, and the Nazis pilfered an Italian noble's villa to get it: the Germania, by the Roman historian Tacitus, took on a life of its own as both an object and an ideology. When Tacitus wrote a not-very-flattering little book about the ancient Germans in 98 CE, at the height of the Roman Empire, he could not have foreseen that the Nazis would extol it as "a bible," nor that Heinrich Himmler, the engineer of the Holocaust, would vow to resurrect Germany on its grounds. But the Germania inspired—and polarized—readers long before the rise of the Third Reich. In this elegant and captivating history, Christopher B. Krebs, a professor of classics at Harvard University, traces the wide-ranging influence of the Germania over a five-hundred-year span, showing us how an ancient text rose to take its place among the most dangerous books in the world.

著者簡介

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Harvard classics professor Krebs writes a scholarly but lucid account of the abuse of history. Written in 98 C.E. by the Roman official Tacitus, About the Origin and Mores of the Germanic Peoples was lost for centuries but resurfaced around 1500 as Germans were growing resentful of foreign domination—in this case from the Catholic Church in Rome. The rediscovered book launched a primitivist myth that captivated admirers over the next 500 years, from Martin Luther to Heinrich Himmler, who loved its portrayal of ancient Germans as freedom-loving warriors, uncultured but honorable, in contrast to decadent Romans. In fact, Tacitus probably never visited Germany, Krebs notes. Rather, using books and travelers' reports, he wrote for a Roman audience who shared his romantic view of northern barbarians. Enthusiastic German readers, culminating in the Nazis, ignored Tacitus's disparaging comments, misread passages to confirm their prejudices, and proclaimed that the ancient historian confirmed their national superiority. This is an inventive analysis of, and warning against, an irresistible human yearning to find written proof of one's ideology. Illus. (May)

Review

“A razor-sharp, eminently readable reminder of the potency of bad ideas. Christopher Krebs shows how intellectuals through the ages used and abused a Latin classic, Tacitus's Germania, and tells the unnerving story of its final transformation into a Nazi 'bible'. Fascinating stuff.” (Anthony Everitt , author of Hadrian and the Triumph of Rome )

“A most exciting book! In Krebs’ hands, the story of the Germania manuscript becomes part thriller, part detective story.... A must-read for anyone interested in the pernicious power of the ideas of antiquity—and a timely reminder of the responsibilities placed on readers as well as writers.” (Tim Rood, University of Oxford, author of American Anabasis )

“A fascinating story of how a book could be used and—especially—abused over two thousand years, as enemies saw it as presenting Germans as brutish and barbarian, while German nationalistic pride extracted a quite different message of a nation that was simple, virtuous, and pure.... beautifully told by Christopher Krebs.” (Christopher Pelling, editor of Greek Tragedy and the Historian )

作為一份特定文本的傳播/文化/思想史還是挺有意思的,但是整個thesis感覺沒有argue得特彆好,而更多是按時間順序堆砌塔西陀的文本在不同作者筆下或中心或邊緣的存在,作者所說的依照斯金納式的治思想史思路則很難看到,甚至有點反其道而行的樣子。。。

《一本最危险的书》看题目是不是很吸引人,同样内容也很吸引人。本书对德国民族性的解读堪比《菊与刀》对日本民族性的解读。书中的主要内容和背景大体如下:公元98年,罗马帝国历史学家塔西佗完成著作《日耳曼尼亚志》。在短短二十来页的篇幅中,塔西佗将古日耳曼人描述...

《一本最危险的书》书评 本书是美国斯坦福大学古典学系古典学副教授和德国学教授克里斯托弗.B.克里布斯的著作,内容主要是古罗马作家塔西陀的短篇著作《日耳曼尼亚志》的前世今生。 二战过后,劫后余生的人们后怕不已,昨日种种犹如噩梦不堪回首,所以使出种种手段防范法西斯主...

空间与微博经常会有一些很俗气很直接的文章与段子,被大量转发,比如“遇到这样的男人你就嫁了吧”。转发的人未必认可这样的文字,而是她们需要这样的文字来表明自己的态度,情绪上指给有心人听。 可是,这和这本书有什么关系了,如你所想,可能一点关系都没有。人类,有很多办...

克里斯托弗•克里布斯是一位古典学副教授,他用严谨而生动的文献学功夫,写了一《一本最危险的书》。想到“危险的书”,你会想到什么呢?是希特勒《我的奋斗》吗?或是日本的《国民训》?我倒是想起一本书:塞林格《麦田里的守望者》。 1980年12月8日,查普曼坐在马路边安静...
