通往 Great War(第一次世界大战)前决定命运的四分之一世纪,在这些书页中瑰丽地重现。那是一个特权世界仍在奥林匹斯山般的奢华中歌舞升平,而抗议世界却在“痛苦、力量与仇恨中剧烈震荡”的时代。这个时代是人类有记载以来变革速度最快的一个世纪的高潮,是一场翻天覆地的命运重塑。在描摹这个世界时,Barbara Tuchman 将笔墨集中于社会而非国家。正如她在序言中所写,她的目的在于“探寻孕育出 Great War 的那个世界的特质”。——护封折口。

非常感谢推荐,已经搞了一本。塔奇曼写过《八月炮火》和《骄傲之塔》,讲的是一战爆发前夕、期间以及刚结束那阵子的历史。我觉得两本都极其精彩,相信《远方之镜》肯定也很值得一读。
Many thanks for the recommendation; picked up a copy. Tuchman wrote Guns of August and The Proud Tower about the times immediately before, during and after the start of WWI. I found both outstanding reads and I can only think A Distant Mirror to be worth the time.
芭芭拉·塔奇曼最出名的作品是《八月炮火》,但她还写过《骄傲之塔》[0],讲的是一战前25年的(欧洲)世界。在结语那一章里,她谈到了战前的人们曾以为自己是多么善良,对自己的社会感到多么骄傲,他们……
Barbara Tuckman is more famous for writing the Guns of August, but she also wrote the the Proud Tower[0] about the (European) world in the 25 years leading up to WWI, and in the concluding chapter she talks about how before the war the people thought they were good, they were proud of the society they…
如果有人想深入了解一战前的那些岁月,强烈推荐芭芭拉·塔奇曼的《骄傲之塔》。民族主义和全球共产主义的同步崛起让人读来大呼过瘾。直到最后一刻,人们都还在把巨大的希望寄托在和平会议上。
Highly recommend Barbara Tuchman’s The Proud Tower if anyone wants to learn more about these years before WWI. The simultaneous rise of nationalism and global communism is fascinating. So much hope is placed in peace conferences, right up until the end.
关于19世纪末无政府主义者是如何与左翼结盟的背景,我推荐芭芭拉·塔奇曼的书《骄傲之塔》[0]。[0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Proud_Tower

有谁能推荐一本完整详述德雷福斯事件的好书吗?我读过塔奇曼在《骄傲之塔》里写的那一章。我一直很喜欢她的书,但这毕竟只是一本大部头里的一小章。(我也读过夏伊勒的《第三共和国》,但年代太久远已经没印象了,而且那也只是一章的内容。)
Any recommendations on a good book-length account of the Dreyfus Affair? I've read the chapter in Tuchman's Proud Tower. I've always loved her books, but this is just a short chapter in a longer book. (I also read Shirer's Third Republic, but that was so long ago I don't remember. It was just a chapter also.)
……在即将到来的2022年选举周期中激化反对派。我唯一的心理慰藉,就是去读芭芭拉·塔奇曼在《骄傲之塔》里对20世纪之交英国议会过度扩权及其引发的反弹的描述。
…catalyzes the opposition in the upcoming 2022 election cycle. My only salve has been reading Barbara Tuchman's account of the parliamentary overreach and reaction in turn-of-the-20th century UK in The Proud Tower.
