书籍简介

唐纳德·卡根 (Donald Kagan) 广受赞誉的四卷伯罗奔尼撒战争史的第一卷根据现代学术提供的证据和对古代文本的仔细重新考虑，对冲突的起源和原因进行了新的评估。 他的研究重点是这样一个问题：战争是不可避免的，还是可以避免的？ 卡根对修昔底德的观点提出异议，即战争是不可避免的，雅典帝国在一个存在敌对力量的世界中的崛起使得两者之间的冲突是肯定的。 相反，卡根断言战争的起源“不能在不严重歪曲的情况下与所涉国家的内部历史分开处理”，他追溯了国内政治和外交事务之间的联系。 他进一步检查了证据，以了解导致战争的决定是什么，在每一点上都询问是否有可能做出不同的决定。

The first volume of Donald Kagan's acclaimed four-volume history of the Peloponnesian War offers a new evaluation of the origins and causes of the conflict, based on evidence produced by modern scholarship and on a careful reconsideration of the ancient texts. He focuses his study on the question: Was the war inevitable, or could it have been avoided?Kagan takes issue with Thucydides' view that the war was inevitable, that the rise of the Athenian Empire in a world with an existing rival power made a clash between the two a certainty. Asserting instead that the origin of the war "cannot, without serious distortion, be treated in isolation from the internal history of the states involved," Kagan traces the connections between domestic politics, constitutional organization, and foreign affairs. He further examines the evidence to see what decisions were made that led to war, at each point asking whether a different decision would have been possible.
