History of the Wars by the Byzantine historian Procopius (late fifth century to after 558 CE) consists largely of sixth century CE military history, with much information about peoples, places, and special events. Powerful description complements careful narration. Procopius is just to the empire s enemies and boldly criticises emperor Justinian.
Procopius, born at Caesarea in Palestine late in the 5th century, became a lawyer. In 527 CE he was made legal adviser and secretary of Belisarius, commander against the Persians, and went with Belisarius again in 533 against the Vandals and in 535 against the Ostrogoths. Sometime after 540 he returned to Constantinople. He may have been that Procopius who was prefect of Constantinople in 562, but the date of his death (after 558) is unknown.
Procopius’s History of the Wars in 8 books recounts the Persian Wars of emperors Justinus and Justinian down to 550 (2 books); the Vandalic War and after-events in Africa 532–546 (2 books); the Gothic War against the Ostrogoths in Sicily and Italy 536–552 (3 books); and a sketch of events to 554 (1 book). The whole consists largely of military history, with much information about peoples and places as well, and about special events. He was a diligent, careful, judicious narrator of facts and developments and shows good powers of description. He is just to the empire’s enemies and boldly criticises emperor Justinian. Other works by Procopius are the Anecdota or Secret History—vehement attacks on Justinian, Theodora, and others; and The Buildings of Justinian (down to 558 CE) including roads and bridges as well as churches, forts, hospitals, and so on in various parts of the empire.
研究查士丁尼一朝古书 东罗最后的复兴大业。。个人认为崔艳红和陈志强老师作为国内冷门拜占庭史研究者 译文很简洁明了 文学性较少 好在专业释义很准确,(此版底本貌似是英文)可搭配的崔艳红老师《古战争:拜占庭历史学家普罗柯比战记研究》这本条理梳理得很清晰 想要直接找史...
評分首先必须要为本书鸣不平,评论里面有说看得无聊的和一头雾水的,那应该是因为他们对这方面的内容不了解。确实,拜占庭研究应该是国内最冷门的几个方向之一了。我之所以本科毕业论文写这个方向也确实可能只是内心深处的叛逆思想作怪。而写完毕业论文我也只是对查士丁尼一...
評分读此书感觉一头雾水,这可是一本真正的历史书,整个前八卷,都是打来打去,结果什么都没有。波斯战争基本失败了。汪达尔战争与哥特战争好像是胜利了,可是北非与意大利已是一片废墟。东罗罗马帝国即没有扩张领土,也没有掠夺财富(指国家本身而言)。反倒是劳民伤财,而且本土...
評分要论6世纪拜占庭最杰出的史家,非普罗柯比莫属。为何这么高的荣誉要归于他?看看他丰厚的著述:《战史》、《论建筑》、《秘史》。《战史》记述了作者亲历的、由拜占庭最伟大的皇帝之一查士丁尼大帝组织的、由杰出的将领贝利萨留领导的再整服地中海的伟业。《论建筑》描写了6世...
