内容简介

孟德斯鸠在此解释罗马何以兴、何以亡,并主张这并非命运使然,而是若干可以一一列举的原因所致。

背景与流传

一七三四年出版,早《论法的精神》十四年,读来正像那部书的预演:他在此以一个具体案例检验日后将推及一切的方法。人们常引的一句是:若一场战役毁掉了一个国家,那必定存在某种普遍原因,使这个国家注定要因一场战役而亡。这同时也是一部隐蔽的政治著作:谈罗马的衰亡,就是在谈法国的君主制,而他的读者心知肚明。

这是编辑性背景,不是可引用的来源:与作品本身的段落不同,这些说明无法在语料库中核对。

These were occasions of great rejoicing in the city ; and such was the origin of those Triumphs, which were in after times the principal cause of the grandeur of the Eomans. The power of Eome was greatly increased by her tinion with the Sabines, a people as hardy and as warlike as the Lacedaemonians, from whom they were descended. Eomulus adopted their buckler, which was large, instead of the small Argive buckler which he had previously used.' And it should be noted, that the circumstance which contributed most to render the Eomans masters of the world was, that having contended successively against all nations, they invariably renounced their own usages as soon as they found better. ° Witnesa the astonishment of Dionysius of Halicarnassus in connection with the sewers constructed by Tarquin. (Ant. Horn. Book III ) They exist yet, (a) Consult my Note at the end of this chapter. — Tkanslator, * Plutarch, Idfe of Emnulvs. CHAP. I.] OP THE ROMANS.…
