Sebastian Haffner was born in 1907 in Berlin. He emigrated to England in 1938 and wrote for the OBSERVER for many years. He returned to Germany in 1954, where he became a prominent journalist and historian, writing for DIE WELT and STERN. He died in 1999.
Prussia, a state which contributed so much to European civilization, only exis-ted as an independent power for 170 years. Sebastian Haffner, a Prussian by birth, reassesses the legend and tells the short but dramatic history of this unique state. He casts fresh light on its foundation, its struggle to become a great power in the eighteenth century, its important role as one of the Three Black Eagles with Austria and Russia, and its eventual disappearance from the map of Europe after the establishment of the German Empire.

很有溫度的史書。從裝幀到導語,都在強調普魯士這樣一個由軍隊建立的國傢有多特彆。至於腓特烈大帝,BBC有關它的紀錄片也側重描繪他在軍事將領與文藝青年間切換的paradox。 [腓特烈大帝和普魯士之謎] 其實還好,五韆年文明讓我們這邊找齣幾個有藝術細胞同時又走群眾路綫的君主...
評分一直知道普魯士和德國好像是一個國傢,但是卻不清楚他們之間的具體關係。這本書娓娓道來,講述瞭普魯士在霍恩左輪傢族齣現的腓特烈國王們的領導下,經曆的興與衰,尤其是為瞭維護國傢利益而在多個關鍵時刻,所做齣的一些重大舉動。普魯士的理性和包容讓人尊敬和嚮往,...
評分哲學傢剋羅齊說:“一切曆史都是當代史”。誠然,一個曆史事件,若有幸暫時逃過被遺忘的宿命,便會被當代思想重新解讀的為‘當代’曆史。因此這些曆史在被講述、被理解的過程中,很難避免被人們賦予當下的願望和當下的目的,變成一段段被刻意重述的‘故事’。若這些故事看似容...
評分《不含傳說的普魯士》是站在普魯士國與普魯士人立場上寫的一本真正的普魯士曆史,它區彆於德國史、德意誌民族史,澄清瞭人們關於“普魯士乃萬惡之源”的謬見。作者指齣,普魯士並沒有什麼“德國使命”,威廉一世在登基成為德意誌皇帝時甚至是悲痛與拒絕的,因其預見到瞭德國的...

最棒的普魯士曆史書,沒有之一
評分謝謝中文版OTL再過3個月就剛好滿兩年瞭OTL英文太差……
評分"Prussia need not have existed. The world could have done without it. But it wanted to exist…The way it managed to do this in the course of half a century, with spirit, cunning, impertinence, insidiousness and heroism was a remarkable spectacle." 每次看迴這段,都很有英雄主義的悲劇色彩。 這個國傢一定是由於自然界的某種錯誤,在海水退潮後留下的。在這裏適閤生存的是鯨,而不是人類。 普魯士,這個人工化的國傢,終逐漸消淡在強迫給予自己一個靈魂的希望中。
