Thucydides called his account of two decades of war between Athens and Sparta "a possession for all time," and indeed it is the first and still most famous work in the Western historical tradition. Considered essential reading for generals, statesmen, and liberally educated citizens for more than 2,000 years, The Peloponnesian War is a mine of military, moral, political, and philosophical wisdom. However, this classic book has long presented obstacles to the uninitiated reader. Robert Strassler's new edition removes these obstacles by providing a new coherence to the narrative overall, and by effectively reconstructing the lost cultural context that Thucydides shared with his original audience. Based on the venerable Richard Crawley translation, updated and revised for modern readers. The Landmark Thucydides includes a vast array of superbly designed and presented maps, brief informative appendices by outstanding classical scholars on subjects of special relevance to the text, explanatory marginal notes on each page, an index of unprecedented subtlety, and numerous other useful features. In any list of the Great Books of Western Civilization, The Peloponnesian War stands near the top. This authoritative new edition will ensure that its greatness is appreciated by future generations.

評分十八年前譯者在接到翻譯西學名著《伯羅奔尼撒戰爭史》的任務時,心裏確實有些忐忑不安,十八年後的今天依然如此。古希臘文明博大精深,對於西方乃至全人類文明貢獻巨大,影響深遠。譯者自知學力不濟,難以勝任。因為自己對於希臘的曆史和文化,充其量隻能算是個初學者。雖然三...
評分又懶得開電腦寫公眾號瞭(常年如此),在這裏整理一下第一天讀修昔底德《伯羅奔尼撒戰爭史》的讀書筆記。作為兩韆多年前的曆史學傢,修昔底德的記錄、見識和方法在今天仍有強大的生命力。而“修昔底德陷阱”這個詞今年因全球局勢動態再度流行就是一個例證。 以下即使帶引號的也...

真業界良心。要是有一個這樣的史記或左傳讀本就好瞭!

評分我認為我們必須相信higher justice存在,頭頂或無上帝但須有神,如若簡單相信justice即為“成王敗寇,the weak suffer what they must",如若相信崇高已不復存在,則人同動物無本質區彆。雅典的這套正義說辭是self-governance的墮落體現,當一切價值都已煙消雲散時,構成城邦並使得城邦穩固的架構則不復存在。
