Hacker News 上怎么说

  • Mary Renault。《Fire From Heaven》。我觉得她很有先见之明,在亚历山大还被大家奉为超级英雄的年代,她就已经敏锐地察觉到了他身上那种残暴可怖的一面。托尔金。《精灵宝钻》(The Silmarillion)。我读这本彻底被劝退了……

    Mary Renault. Fire From Heaven. I think she was ahead of the curve in recognizing that Alexander had monstrous qualities at a time when he was still seen as a kind of superhero. Tolkein. The Silmarillion. I’ve bounced off this book…

  • ……派系林立,人们搞了好多看起来极其怪诞的仪式。更别提各种巫术指控了。我在学近代早期英国史课程时读过的比较好的一本书是《Fire From Heaven》,里面涵盖了不少这方面的内容(http://amzn.to/1VzJn8r)。我最近在读 Patrick O'Brian 的 Aubrey/Maturin 系列小说时碰到的一个,就是‘卖妻’这一恶习(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wife_selling_(English_custom))

    …splinter groups, there's a lot of bizarre-seeming rituals that people undertook. Not to mention accusations of witchcraft. One of the better books I read in my coursework on early modern England was Fire From Heaven, which covers a bunch of this stuff (http://amzn.to/1VzJn8r) One I came across recently, reading one of the Patrick O'Brian Aubrey/Maturin novels was the practice of wife selling (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wife_selling_(English_custom))

  • 研究亚历山大的历史学家 Mary Renault 写过一套关于他生平的历史小说三部曲,第一部就是《Fire from Heaven》。

    Mary Renault, a historian of Alexander, wrote a series of three historical novels about his life, starting with Fire from Heaven.
