为什么值得读

  • 文笔极富感染力远胜干燥的历史摘要
  • 篇章生动有趣兼具历史反思价值
  • 考证严密且经得起时间考验的叙事

这是一部由被誉为“第一位现代历史学家”的杰出学者所著、展现历史宏伟与全景之美的巅峰之作。“我着手阅读Gibbon的Decline and fall of the roman empire,立刻被其叙事与文风所折服。我贪婪地阅读Gibbon,自始至终在其中畅快沉浸。”

Hacker News 上怎么说

  • 我已经在读爱德华·吉本的《罗马帝国衰亡史》了,虽然自它成书以来的后续研究可能会反驳某些吉本时代未知的史实(它出版于1776年),但它依然是一部极其出色的、详尽记录公元170年代起罗马帝国的著作……

    I am already reading Edward Gibbon's The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, and while research since its conception may have disputed certain facts unknown at Gibbon's time (it was published in 1776), it is still an excellent detailed account of the Roman Empire from 170s and…

  • 确实,有些摘要缺乏原著的色彩、感染力和趣味。这是 Edward Gibbon 的《罗马帝国衰亡史》的摘要:* 曾有个共和国。* 后来变成了帝国。* 基督教兴起。* 帝国分裂了。* 帝国衰亡了。基本上就是你能从 Gibbon 那里提炼出的事实,……

    And indeed some summaries lack the colour, pathos and delight of the original. Here's a summary of Edward Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire: * There was a republic. * Then there was an empire. * Christianity emerged. * The empire split up. * The empire declined. More or less factually what you might glean from Gibbon,…

  • ……读过的书里最棒的)。- 《白鲸》(我读过的最好的两部小说之一)。- 《血色子午线》(和我读过的最好的小说《白鲸》并列第一)。- 《罗马帝国衰亡史》(史诗级的大部头阅读……绝对值得投入时间)。

    …have ever read). - Moby Dick or The Whale (One of the top two novels I've ever read). - Blood Meridian or The Evening Redness in the West (Tied with Moby Dick for best novel I've ever read). - The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (Epic reading... worth the commitment).

  • 或者你也可以读读 Edward Gibbon 的《罗马帝国衰亡史》中的下面这一章。相当有意思。http://www.ccel.org/g/gibbon/decline/volume2/chap50.htm

    Or you could read the following chapter from The Decline And Fall Of The Roman Empire by Edward Gibbon. It is quite entertaining. http://www.ccel.org/g/gibbon/decline/volume2/chap50.htm

  • ……读书。Facebook 和《理想国》之间根本没有可比性。书通常有经过更好核实的信息来源,还有编辑把关。我从未在网上见过有任何原创内容能比得上 Edward Gibbon 的《罗马帝国衰亡史》。或许除了《罗马帝国衰亡史》本身。而且我怀疑下一部《罗马帝国衰亡史》也不会诞生在网上。它可能会在网上做宣传,……

    …reading a book. There's just no equivalency between Facebook and The Republic. Books usually have better vetted sources and an editor going over it. I've never seen anything that originated online like The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire by Edward Gibbon. Except maybe The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. And I doubt that the next "The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" will originate online either. It might be advertised online,…
