SPQR 2025 pdf epub mobi 电子书
罗马史向来有很多种写法,最受大众欢迎的显然是军事史和英雄史,政治史和“法治”史更学究一些,风俗史等等也有不少读者。在众多史著中,Beard的这部作品更显突出,作者在谋篇布局中,将元老院的角色放在了中心舞台上,各色人等鱼贯上下,与元老制产生互动,在互动的过程中,梳...
评分这是我第一本读完的罗马史作品 这本书的作者是玛丽·比尔德,英国剑桥大学教授,在BBC多部纪录片中出镜,在纪录片《相约古罗马》,能够看到她飘逸的金色长发,行走在罗马的古籍,行走在罗马的大道上,对事迹和内容娓娓道来,就好像她刚刚从古罗马回来一般。而《SPQR》就是一部...
评分 评分不同于早先爱德华·吉本厚重沉郁的衰亡史或者盐野七生轻灵流畅的故事史,玛丽·比尔德给了我们另外一种看待罗马历史的角度。对《罗马元老院与人民》的感受很难用一言两语说清楚,所以只能择一些我觉得感兴趣的点来说: 关于罗马建国期间对萨宾女子的掠夺。印象比较深的是书中运...
评分历史学家夏曾佑认为: 中国之有周人,犹泰西之有希腊。 这句话说明了周和希腊分别奠定了中西文化的基础。 如此更可以说: 中国之有秦汉,犹泰西之有罗马。 秦汉与罗马奠定中西的政治体制。 古罗马简称SPQR,是拉丁语Senatus Populusque Romanus的缩写,意思为罗马元老院与人民...

Ancient Rome matters. Its history of empire, conquest, cruelty and excess is something against which we still judge ourselves. Its myths and stories - from Romulus and Remus to the Rape of Lucretia - still strike a chord with us. And its debates about citizenship, security and the rights of the individual still influence our own debates on civil liberty today. SPQR is a new look at Roman history from one of the world's foremost classicists. It explores not only how Rome grew from an insignificant village in central Italy to a power that controlled territory from Spain to Syria, but also how the Romans thought about themselves and their achievements, and why they are still important to us. Covering 1,000 years of history, and casting fresh light on the basics of Roman culture from slavery to running water, as well as exploring democracy, migration, religious controversy, social mobility and exploitation in the larger context of the empire, this is a definitive history of ancient Rome. SPQR is the Romans' own abbreviation for their state: Senatus Populusque Romanus, 'the Senate and People of Rome'.
内容精彩 语句通顺易懂。从当代视角和最新文物发现重读罗马历史
评分(不读完大部头不上社交网络,然后今天读完了,社交网络呢……历史洪流,你回头看蝼蚁一般,恍惚不已。)那些讲平民生活的很亲切,那部纪录片里有一小部分涉及,因此熟悉。主体部分,我喜欢的在于开放的态度,模糊和猜测的部分都有指明。后期罗马帝国同基督教犹太民族的关系经点拨稍稍了解了一下。有什么历史的必然吗?我历史水平太菜,因此做了很多初级的笔记和图表,就不露丑了。
评分太精彩了,历史太好玩了!研究了五十多年的人才能用如此通俗易懂的语言把历史的精髓写得淋漓尽致吧。这么大部头啃完都意犹未尽。Mary Beard本人的潇洒也很加分233333
评分就我个人的口味而言战争方面谈得太少,但真的好看。后面的参考书目很有用,算一个初级的研究引导了。
评分Thought-provoking perspective on the history of Rome the city and her people until the Edict of Caracalla.
