西方文明史(第五版)(高级英语选修课教材 ·历史与文化系列) 内容简介
《西方文明史》既紧紧把握了政治发展的线索,同时又兼顾了经济、文化等诸多领域,并运用“新史学”的方法,将底层大众的日常社会生活也囊括其中,力求多层次、多角度地揭示西方文明起源、发展、演进、更新的漫长历程和整体图景。在叙述和阐释西方文明历史的过程中,作者将大多数精力“一直聚焦在拓展出一种对西方文明的可靠的和易读的叙述上”,而并非要将之写成“一部百科全书”。因此,凡是与这一学术主旨不相关的庞杂内容一概不予叙述,而那些被长期忽略了的“普通男女的历史”则被纳入到叙事之中。此外,作者还从文明的“亲缘”关系出发,将斯拉夫文明作为西方文明的组成部分而不是边缘地带来加以叙述。正是基于这样的新理念,该书囊括了历史地理、政治制度、经济样式、地区冲突与战争、宗教、思想观念、文化艺术、社会生活等诸多的内容,让读者对西方文明史的整体轮廓与丰厚积淀有了一个比较清晰的认识。
