书籍简介
克里米亚战争是俄罗斯历史上最激烈的战役之一,造成近100万人死亡,欧洲版图被彻底改写。这是第一次使用摄影、电报和报纸的战争,是沙皇帝国与英、法、奥斯曼帝国联盟的较量,是一场从巴尔干半岛到波斯湾的领土战争。在沙皇和他的部长们强烈的民粹主义信念的驱使下,俄罗斯的任务是统治所有东正教基督徒,控制圣地。这就是最初的“全面战争”。
奥兰多·菲格斯生动的新书重新诠释了这一非同寻常的冲突。克里米亚生动地描绘了战壕里的普通士兵、战场上的外科医生,以及沙皇尼古拉本人的狂热,讲述了一场悲惨战争的人间故事。
The Crimean War one of the fiercest battles in Russia"s history, killing nearly a million men and completely redrawing the map of Europe. Pitting the Tsar"s empire against an alliance of Britain, France and the Ottoman Empire, it was the first conflict to use photography, the telegraph and newspapers; a war over territory, from the Balkans to the Persian Gulf; a war of religion, driven by a fervent, populistbelief by the Tsar and his ministers that it was Russia"s task to rule all Orthodox Christians and control the Holy Land; it was the original "total war".
Orlando Figes" vivid new book reinterprets this extraordinary conflict. Bringing to life ordinary soldiers in snow-filled trenches, surgeons on the battlefield and the haunted, fanatical figure of Tsar Nicholas himself, Crimea tells the human story of a tragic war.
