A monumental work unsurpassed for its brilliant description, accuracy, and penetrating insights, Thucydides ’ History of the Peloponnesian War is a spectacular eyewitness report of the war between Greece’s two most powerful city-states, Athens and Sparta, as it unfolded during the fifth century B.C.
The first recorded political and moral analysis of a nation’s war policies, the History is a tragic story of virtue, ambition, and failed deterrence. All aspects of the conflict—from the battlefield strategies and the political landscape to the peoples’ thoughts and feelings as the long war dragged on—are presented in startlingly vivid detail.
From the treachery of Alcibiades and the disastrous invasion of Sicily to the plague that devastated Athens and Pericles’ famous funeral oration, Thucydides has written more than a mere account of war. His History is nothing less than a classic Greek drama about the rise and fall of Athens. More than two thousand years have passed since the History was written, but its impact on modern politics, military strategy, and foreign relations has been timeless.

评分国庆节读完了修昔底德的《伯罗奔尼撒战争史》的最后几章。这是西方史学公认的的第一部著述严谨的信史,讲述了在希腊对波斯战争胜利之后,希腊城邦之间发生的第二次伯罗奔尼撒战争的历史,即雅典帝国(阿提卡联盟)对抗斯巴达城邦(拉栖代梦联盟)及其他希腊城邦的近三十年的战...
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”...
评分其实拿这么一本严肃的书耍流氓真的不是我的本意……但是修昔底德实在是太给大家面子了。 OK,基佬和女流氓们,既然你们已经来了,请翻开《伯罗奔尼撒战争史》下本的第517页,也就是第六卷的第五章,从最后一段,也就是露着小鸡鸡的哈摩狄阿斯和阿里斯托斋吞的那副图片左下角开...
