书籍简介

约瑟夫斯，士兵，政治家，历史学家，是大约公元37年出生在耶路撒冷的犹太人。他出身高贵，很早就开始学习犹太律法和希腊文学，是法利赛人。在罗马为一些犹太祭司的事业辩护之后，他回到耶路撒冷，并在66年试图阻止反抗罗马，为犹太人管理加利利的事务。在随后的麻烦中，他与维斯帕先讲和。在耶路撒冷被提多围困时，他得到了这两位皇帝和多米提安的青睐，改称弗拉维乌斯。他在97岁之后去世。

作为历史资料，约瑟夫斯是无价的。主要著作有:《犹太战争史》，共七卷(Loeb版本共三卷)，从公元前170年到他自己的时代，早期是用阿拉姆语写成的，但被他自己翻译成了现在的希腊语;和《犹太文物》，共二十卷(九卷)，从创世到公元66年。

约瑟夫斯的古典图书馆版本还包括自传生活和他的论文。

Josephus, soldier, statesman, historian, was a Jew born at Jerusalem about 37 CE. A man of high descent, he early became learned in Jewish law and Greek literature and was a Pharisee. After pleading in Rome the cause of some Jewish priests he returned to Jerusalem and in 66 tried to prevent revolt against Rome, managing for the Jews the affairs of Galilee. In the troubles which followed he made his peace with Vespasian. Present at the siege of Jerusalem by Titus, he received favours from these two as emperors and from Domitian and assumed their family name Flavius. He died after 97.

As a historical source Josephus is invaluable. His major works are: History of the Jewish War, in seven books (the Loeb edition is in three volumes), from 170 BCE to his own time, first written in Aramaic but translated by himself into the Greek we now have; and Jewish Antiquities, in twenty books (nine volumes), from the creation of the world to 66 CE.

The Loeb Classical Library edition of the works of Josephus also includes the autobiographical Life and his treatise Against Apion.
