An epic history of a doomed civilization and a lost empire.

The devastating struggle to the death between the Carthaginians and the Romans was one of the defining dramas of the ancient world. In an epic series of land and sea battles, both sides came close to victory before the Carthaginians finally succumbed and their capital city, history, and culture were almost utterly erased.

Drawing on a wealth of new archaeological research, Richard Miles vividly brings to life this lost empire-from its origins among the Phoenician settlements of Lebanon to its apotheosis as the greatest seapower in the Mediterranean. And at the heart of the history of Carthage lies the extraordinary figure of Hannibal-the scourge of Rome and one of the greatest military leaders, but a man who also unwittingly led his people to catastrophe.

The first full-scale history of Carthage in decades, Carthage Must Be Destroyed reintroduces modern readers to the larger-than-life historical players and the ancient glory of this almost forgotten civilization.

读后感

我看书比较粗疏，挂一漏万是必然的，欢迎商榷 1、p.185 “戴奥尼索斯……成功地使自己登上了叙拉古独裁者的宝座”。 原文是“managed to establish himself as tyrant of Syracuse”，事实上译者不止一次把“tyrant”译成了独裁者，而准确的说法是“僭主”。（有趣的是第498页...

用户评价

這兩年讀了很多與古羅馬相關的書，布匿戰爭，特別是漢尼拔，使我對迦太基這個文明古國產生了濃厚的興趣。《迦太基必須毀滅》完美地解決了我的好奇心。 迦太基是個殖民國家，先人腓尼基人長於海上貿易。因不堪亞述人的欺淩，大批向西移民到中西地中海，並在北非建立獨立的國家──迦太基。與羅馬帝國霸權擴張時期同時代的國家可能都有同樣的悲哀：既生瑜何生亮！迦太基也不例外。隨著羅馬的崛起，這個曾經稱霸中西地中海的文明古國，經過三次布匿戰爭，歷時走過一百五十年，終於被羅馬夷為平地。即使有漢尼拔那樣不世出的統帥，也最終無法挽回第二次布匿戰爭的完敗。而在大加圖一句“Carthage must be destroyed”之後的第三次布匿戰爭中，迦太基被徹底的抹去了。
