充滿了濃厚的英倫風 西蒙‧詹金斯爵士以睿智和敏銳的史觀 帶來有個性的歐洲史 歐洲究極的魅力從歷史而來～～ 英國著名歷史讀物暢銷作家西蒙‧詹金斯爵士， 自古希臘揭開序曲，走筆至2018年的歐洲， 並論及當前難民危機、脫歐、川普、普丁的世界局勢， 其特有的英式幽默與嘲諷，風趣而坦白的批判， 不但讓人發出會心一笑， 更讓人對歐洲4500多年的歷史有了新的認識與反思。 雙重性格、矛盾反覆、戰爭不斷，卻一直是世界的焦點 「歐洲」一直是傑出而成功的，在這本精彩新穎的歷史著作中，暢銷書作家西蒙．詹金斯以流暢、說書般的口吻，帶領讀者徜徉在歷史長河中，重溫歷史課本中的政治人物、戰爭和條款，但是這次的故事絕對不枯燥，他能夠在短短幾頁敘述中，述說十三世紀蒙古民族進入歐洲大陸，亨利三世與英格蘭國會發展，又來到亞維農教廷，英法百年戰爭，黑死病，和神學家約翰．威克里夫的遊走傳教，讓讀者彷若在觀賞快速前進的歷史走馬燈，看得全神貫注，為之屏息。這番說書功力和魅力，讓人折服欽羨。 ～～輔仁大學歷史系副教授 汪采燁老師精彩導讀 歐洲歷史始終在經歷亂流，但同時，它卻能在世界史上留下偉大的事蹟。這麼小的一塊大陸，是如何變得如此強大呢？在歷史發展中，這些歧異的半島、島嶼是如何發展出共同的自覺意識呢？為何外交的處置經常淪為暴力的衝突，而此事對於今日的我們又有什麼啟示呢？ 詹金斯先生在書中也特別點評歐洲史上重要人物，從凱撒、聖女貞德到威靈頓公爵、德國總理梅克爾；同時，他也提及文化巨人，從亞里斯多德、莎士比亞到畢卡索。他以各種主題貫穿時代進行探討，從青年的雄圖、宗教的衝突，到地理的限制、侵略的事蹟。詹金斯先生以他的洞察力、才華與權威，將歷史的關鍵驅動力量以及史上的重大時段，同時彙集成此書的編年敘事題材。 詹金斯先生寫作的歐洲故事來得即時，他以宏觀角度下筆，從千年時光的檔案庫之中，調閱出最具有「歐洲性」的物件，就像是辦一場讓人感動萬分的精采特展！ ◎熱誠推薦（依姓氏筆畫排列） 李若庸 臺北大學歷史系教授 秦曼儀 臺灣大學歷史系副教授陳秀鳳 臺灣師範大學歷史系副教授 陳建守 「說書 Speaking of Books」創辦人 楊彥彬 臺灣師範大學歷史系副教授 楊肅獻 臺灣大學歷史系系主任
