……Christian 的《Big History》。这得追溯到远古时代之前,一直到大爆炸。http://www.worldcat.org/title/big-history/oclc/940282526&ref... 再加上一份不错的总体大纲。H.G. Wells 的《Outline of History》在某种程度上承袭了 David Christian 的传统(Christian 也将其引为 Big History 的早期版本)。它虽然有些过时且带有沙文主义色彩,但本身恰恰证明了观点和视角是会改变的……
…Christian, Big History. This goes back somewhat before ancient times, to the Big Bang. http://www.worldcat.org/title/big-history/oclc/940282526&ref... Add to that a good overall outline. H.G. Wells, Outline of History is somewhat in the tradition of David Christian's (and Christian cites it as a prior version of Big History). It's dated and jingoistic, but serves itself to show that viewpoints and perspectives change…
……你提出这点的语气,看起来倒像是冲着某个完全不是我的人来的。也许你总是容易不过脑子、不加思考就急着回复?* 那个加上他的《The Outline of History》,作为 1920/1930 年代英国视角的历史书来说并不算差,算不上定论也不够权威,但还不赖——Arnold J. Toynbee 为它们辩护时的说法大致是:对普通大众来说挺不错的。
…in which you offer it it does rather appear to be directed at somebody entirely not me. Perhaps you're prone to rush into responses without engaging any thought or contemplation? * That and his The Outline of History weren't too bad for 1920|1930's British PoV History, not definitive nor authorative but not too shabby - Arnold J. Toynbee defended them along the lines of decent for the general public.
……贯穿英格兰历史的普通公民,尤其是在中世纪时期,认为大众遗产的重要方面被忽略了。https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/20897 > H. G. Wells 所著的《The Outline of History: Being a Plain History of Life and Mankind》是一部写于20世纪初的历史著作。这部包罗万象的作品旨在提供一段连贯的叙事,详细讲述……的故事
…citizen throughout England's past, particularly during the medieval period, arguing that important aspects of the populace’s legacy have been overlooked. https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/20897 >"The Outline of History: Being a Plain History of Life and Mankind" by H.

……贬低那些……由个人独立创作的作品,而这类作品越接近“通史”,这种贬低就越发明显。例如,H. G. Wells 先生的《The Outline of History》就遭到了许多历史专家的明显敌意。作者在漫长的时间跨度探索中,在某些节点上被他们挑出了错误并遭到了严厉批评……
…depreciate works ... which are created by single mids, and the depreciation becomes the more emphatic the nearer such works approximate to being 'Universal Histories'. For example, Mr. H. G. Wells', The Outline of History was received with unmistakable hostility by a number of historical specialists. They criticized severely the errors which they discovered at the points where the writer, in his long journey through time…
