The Rise and Fall of the British Empire pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
THE RISE AND FALL OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE covers the history of British expansion overseas from the sixteenth to the twentieth centuries. Narrative and analysis are interwoven with revealing eyewitness quotation to provide keen insight into the minds of those involved in conquering, settling and ruling the greatest Empire the world has seen. Throughout, there are consistant themes; the search for profit and the moral misgivings it generated; domestic developments which made imperial expansion desirable; and the sense of national and personal destiny felt by the empire-builders. Spanning four centuries and six continents, James' magnificent survey examines the imperial experience and its legacy with tremendous verve. Informed, comprehensive and perceptive, it is the essential summary of the era. 'James' epic is not only a first-rate narrative, but also a penetrating portrait of the British...Having largely, if often inadvertently, selfishly or ham-fistedly, engineered the world we live in, we need the courage now to face up to our record as coolly and intelligently as Lawrence James has done' - John Spurling, TLS

英文原版是有关本人大英帝国课程的必读书目之一,提供了非常详细的关于英国殖民史的一些细节。就书本身的内容而言应该是一本好书。 但是对这本中国友谊公司最新出版的中文译版,我想对其翻译内容和文法提出以下质疑(本人使用的是kindle正版,kindle版已和男朋友购买的纸质版交...
评分 评分这里的评论区存在着大量立场可疑的刷分评论。但我想在此认真的阐明一点,这不是一本写“英国历史”的书,这里没有查理亨利爱德华,没有大宪章宗教改革光荣革命...那这是什么内容的书? 这是一本讲述英国海外殖民地的兴衰历史,这本书的名字应该叫做“大英殖民帝国的崛起和衰落...
评分目前看完了一章,作者为了时间顺序,牺牲了当时事件发生的连贯性,在事件描述上不是很有逻辑,事件写的比较散。第一章全部笔墨描写的是英国对海洋和美洲侵略的历史,如果先适当描述当时欧洲的整个格局,让读者清楚英国那个时期在欧洲的地位是怎样的,这有助于读者更深刻的理解...
