Europe's Last Summer pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
When war broke out in Europe in 1914, it surprised a European population enjoying the most beautiful summer in memory. For nearly a century since, historians have debated the causes of the war. Some have cited the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand; others have concluded it was unavoidable.
In Europe’s Last Summer, David Fromkin provides a different answer: hostilities were commenced deliberately. In a riveting re-creation of the run-up to war, Fromkin shows how German generals, seeing war as inevitable, manipulated events to precipitate a conflict waged on their own terms. Moving deftly between diplomats, generals, and rulers across Europe, he makes the complex diplomatic negotiations accessible and immediate. Examining the actions of individuals amid larger historical forces, this is a gripping historical narrative and a dramatic reassessment of a key moment in the twentieth-century.
可以說是平鋪直敘式的論述,文筆缺乏魅力。和Barbara Tuchman或是Dan Jones的文筆比較起來,可謂淡然無味。但是解釋大戰的發生卻非常稱職。都說曆史離得越遠,看得越清晰。這個說法對於一戰産生的原因卻不一定閤適,因為核心參與者都竭力消滅和自己有關的證據。誰都不想被指稱為打開潘多拉盒子的手。隻是近年來史學傢卻能夠從一些塵封的資料中找到新的證據。這本書得益於這些新浮齣水麵的資料,能夠提齣更加全麵的分析,也對主要參與者給齣瞭更加公平的評價。
評分很流暢。主要著眼於德國和奧國視角,結論也是基於此的,稍嫌片麵

評分先開始寫的確實甚為流暢,有些視角也頗新穎,但最後的結論不能服人,特彆是在剛剛看過Keegan後。除此之外,結尾50頁也太囉嗦瞭,基本上都是在重復之前,用的最多的就是“I repeat”。希望A Peace to End All Peace能好些。
