CARTHAGE MUST BE DESTROYED
Book ID/图书代码： 11701209B33566
English Summary/英文概要： The city of Carthage is most famous for the brutal manner of its fall to the Romans in 146 BC. This new history charts the city’s rise over just five centuries from a small Levantine colony on the North African coast to the Western Mediterranean’s first superpower: a position that would eventually put Carthage on to a collision course with the emerging might of Rome. Using the latest archaeological data within a clear narrative historical framework, Richard Miles uncovers one of the Ancient World’s great ‘lost’ civilisations the memory of which was chillingly erased by those that eventually conquered it. This is a story of politics and power, of great battles and generals, and also of the savagery and brutality of the ancient world where defeat could mean at best a lifetime of slavery and at worst total annihilation. The clash between the rival empires of Rome and Carthage, between east and west, is a story that reverberates down the centuries.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 公元前146年，迦太基城沦陷，罗马征服者们以一种近乎残忍的方式，将这个民族从历史上彻底抹去。仅仅用了五百年的时间，迦太基从一块北非沿海的弹丸属地，一跃成为西地中海版图上的强大帝国：由于迦太基城所处的位置得天独厚，围绕着这个战略要冲，罗马与迦太基之间最终不可避免地走向了兵戎相见。借助最新的考古资料，按照历史年限，作者将向你还原一个真实的迦太基 -- 一个几乎惨遭征服者抹杀了的古老文明。
这是一段内容丰富的历史，既有政治的较力也有战争的冲突，既有强盛的帝国也有伟大的将领；在那个古老的年代，一场战争的失败不仅代表了沦为奴役，也可能意味着亡国灭种。罗马与迦太基的战争，是两个强大帝国的较力，也是东西方文明间的撞击，在历史的长河中留下了不可磨灭的厚重一笔。(WHL)
