评分 评分 评分在没有成吉思汗之前,蒙古只是一个活跃于贝加尔湖东南,肯特山脉之间的几个小部族。他们以血族关系维持着原始的部族关系,以血脉关系建立权力基础,以血脉关系分配资源包括繁衍后代的权力,血族关系凌驾于任何社会关系之上。 他们南邻干燥戈壁,北接广袤的中西伯利亚高原,与世...

The Mongol army led by Genghis Khan subjugated more lands and people in twenty-?ve years than the Romans did in four hundred. In nearly every country the Mongols conquered, they brought an unprecedented rise in cultural communication, expanded trade, and a blossoming of civilization. Vastly more progressive than his European or Asian counterparts, Genghis Khan abolished torture, granted universal religious freedom, and smashed feudal systems of aristocratic privilege. From the story of his rise through the tribal culture to the explosion of civilization that the Mongol Empire unleashed, this brilliant work of revisionist history is nothing less than the epic story of how the modern world was made.
听书。中学课本学了好多元朝的事,长大后才知道根本不是历史中的蒙古国。蒙古国对欧亚沟通的作用,怎样用那么少的人统治世界上最大的地盘?
评分给我一只雄鹰
评分因为对元史一点也不了,所以找了黎东方的《细说元史》对照着看,越看越觉得这外国人是不是在拍成吉思汗的马屁?!为了刻画成吉思汗一代天骄的伟大形象,基本上把扎木合和王汗毁成了渣渣,但按黎东方大叔的话,这俩人可没那么没道义。写到忽必烈也是一堆形容词一顿夸。所以你能想像他写到蒙古人对宗教信仰的高度宽容是啥德性了吧。这老外还很伤情地提了一点,大意是这样说:没有一个入侵者像成吉思汗那样搜刮了那么多东西和人才运回自己的地盘,他在战场的无往不利让蒙古的皇室成员过上了锦衣玉食的生活。但是蒙古人作为游牧民族,本身不事生产不善经商,局面打开了也没法靠自身维持。为了不让他家的好日子一夜回到解放前,成吉思汗一把年纪也没法退休,只能硬着头皮继续到处打战抢劫维持这荣华富贵。所以我还得可怜一打劫犯?
评分非常能扯(中性)。行文大气美观,有吸引力。可惜有些小地方不太严谨。我读到的:蒙元以轻骑兵战术得天下,以商业帝国守成,亡于黑死病对商业的破坏。
评分大好!金戈铁马气吞山河如虎。文字亦佳。
