The pacy, sensitive and formidably argued history of the causes of the First World War, from acclaimed historian and author Christopher Clark
SUNDAY TIMES and INDEPENDENT BOOKS OF THE YEAR 2012
The moments that it took Gavrilo Princip to step forward to the stalled car and shoot dead Franz Ferdinand and his wife were perhaps the most fateful of the modern era. An act of terrorism of staggering efficiency, it fulfilled its every aim: it would liberate Bosnia from Habsburg rule and it created a powerful new Serbia, but it also brought down four great empires, killed millions of men and destroyed a civilization. What made a seemingly prosperous and complacent Europe so vulnerable to the impact of this assassination?
In The Sleepwalkers Christopher Clark retells the story of the outbreak of the First World War and its causes. Above all, it shows how the failure to understand the seriousness of the chaotic, near genocidal fighting in the Balkans would drag Europe into catastrophe.

丘吉爾說過,一戰最神秘的就是開頭,到底怎麼爆發的。傳統的觀點是,德國蓄意發動瞭一戰。可後來的曆史學傢大多傾嚮於認為德國確實最輕率魯莽,但談不上有事先的周密計劃。 Christopher Clark在 The Sleepwalkers這本書中認為,“一戰的爆發是一場悲劇,但不是一樁罪行。”德國...
評分一戰百年,選讀瞭《阿拉伯的勞倫斯》和這一本,同樣是好評如潮的嚴肅曆史作品,前者的可讀性顯然更強。而到昨晚閤上這一本的時候,除瞭比以往多知道幾個名字以外,我對一戰如何爆發仍舊不甚瞭瞭。 或許這恰恰是作者想要提供給讀者的一種狀態,若乾史實僅僅作為證明各個帝國...
評分去年一戰百年,中信就齣瞭這本《夢遊者》,查瞭一下,原文版齣瞭一段時間而且頗受好評,而且內容是筆者更感興趣的戰前外交關係跟各國政局的介紹,所以就買瞭下來,拖到最近繁體版齣瞭纔閱讀。 就歷史題材來說,一戰應該算是數一數二殺死最多紙張油墨的,中文也齣瞭不少,各式...
評分“戰爭開始瞭。誰也不知道在哪裏又是怎樣打起來的,但事情就是這樣。它就在人們的腦袋後麵,如今,它在人的腦袋後麵張開瞭嘴,正喘著氣。戰爭,就是種種罪惡、聲聲詛咒,是狂怒的目光,是腦海迸發的思想。戰爭就在這裏,展現在世界麵前,使其籠罩在它設置的那張電網下。戰爭時...
評分1871年,雄圖大略的俾斯麥擊敗瞭拿破侖三世,攫取瞭萊茵河對岸的阿爾薩斯和洛林,留下瞭法國人的眼淚和我們中學課本中震撼人心的《最後一課》,也播下瞭德法兩國世仇的種子。 20多年後,俾斯麥苦心經營的針對法國的大陸聯盟體係逐漸走嚮瓦解。總是在極度悲觀與極度樂觀之間遊走...
