A substantially revised and updated edition of the author's classic 1987 book, 'The Polish Way: A Thousand-Year History of the Poles and their Culture', which has been out of print since 2001. When Adam Zamoyski first wrote his history of Poland, in the 1980s, the country was in a state of subjugation, its living culture largely surviving only underground or in exile. Although the election of Karol Wojty?a as Pope John Paul II and the dramatic rise of Solidarno?? had brought Poland into the world's consciousness, it was not until the collapse of the Soviet empire in 1989 that it returned to life as a political entity. No nation's history has been so distorted as that of Poland. In 1797 Russia, Prussia and Austria divided the country up among themselves, rewriting history to give the impression that Poland had never been a fully sovereign state, only a backwater that needed civilising. In fact the country they had wiped off the map had been one of the largest and most richly varied in Europe, embracing a wide variety of cultural and religious traditions, accommodated within one of the boldest constitutional experiments ever attempted. Its destruction initiated a series of struggles that culminated in the two world wars and the Cold War. Today, after the turmoil of the past two centuries, Poland has been restored to its rightful place as one of the most homogeneous and vigorous nations of Europe. Adam Zamoyski's full revision of his classic history is perfectly timed.

波兰是一个对我们来说既熟悉又陌生的国度。 有很多中国人知道波兰人在二战当中遭遇的苦难,以为波兰会和我们有相同的感受和世界观。可是,波兰人明显反感中国人,这和他们的历史有着莫大的关系。 波兰的历史渊源最早追溯至由斯拉夫人建立起来的数个大公国。波兰正式作为一个“...
评分 评分因为本书是普及类的通史著作,所以抛开种种历史细节不论,如果要寻找贯穿波兰史的核心细节,一定是“自由”,“自由”定义了波兰的历史和政治角色,是祝福也是诅咒。 1,皮亚斯特王朝是形成国家雏形的前自由时期。和很多中世纪王朝一样,很难说这时的波兰是一个“国家”。因为...
评分可惜,我没有波兰朋友。不然,我一定问他:“假如让你选择,你愿意生活在波兰历史的哪一段?”既然无处可问,我只好问自己:“假装是一个波兰人,你愿意生活在哪个年代?” 假如没有读过英国人亚当·扎莫伊斯基所著、中国友谊出版公司出版的《波兰史》,我的答案一定是,任何时...
评分追溯下自己关于中东欧及苏俄的阅读轨迹,从大学看崔卫平的电影随笔到她的哈维尔译作、不可避免的到同时期瓦文萨的波兰,再到流亡重归的米沃什,以及柏林老头对卫星国背后幽灵苏联二十世纪的文化政治反思,个中的同一性很难不自我观看,后苏联时代的中东欧就是我们的镜子。如波...
