    THE PIMLICO DICTIONARY OF CLASSICAL CIVILIZATIONS

    Book ID/图书代码: 11320004B05833

    English Summary/英文概要: An original and unique work of reference which braeks new ground by treating for the first time the classical era of the Old World as a whole. Never before have the key peoples and events of Greece,Rome, Persia,India,and China been encompassed in a single volume,despite the fact their civilizations had much in common and laid the foundat- ions of present-day Europe ans Asia. Cotterell asserts that for too long Greece and Rome have been regardedas the classical world and its study isolated from even the major powers that confronted the Greeks abd Romans in Iran and India. Today we are more aware of the complex interrelations that once existed between the Greeks and the Persians,theMacedonians and thr Indians, the Romans and both the persians and the Sasanians. The persistent isolation of China,on the other hand,cut off by mountains and deserts from india,makes the claassical experience ther so useful for compari-son and contrast. The virtual absence of slavery in China is but one of its startling features.

    Chinese Summary/中文概要: 本辞典第一次把希腊,罗马,伊朗,印度和中国的古典神话放在一本书中来介绍。通过对五种不同传统的神话的比较,可以看到很多有趣的现象。它们之间既有相同点,也有许多差别。比如在对待英雄主义,爱情和死亡的态度上,希腊和印度神话就大相径庭。印度神话对苦行主义力量的强调在印度次大陆以外很少见到,而希腊神话中的奥迪浦斯悲剧在希腊境外难觅其双。这些差别产生的原因恐怕要到各种神话所出的文化背景中去找。本词典还包含有200多幅插图,以显示各种神,英雄,哲人,坏人和魔鬼在他们各自的神话中看起来是怎么样的。
