当我们仰望苍茫的夜空，沉浸在对历史的追忆当中，历朝历代的帝王将相、墨客骚人、能臣治吏、枭雄悍将，正如寂寥的星辰渐行渐远，消散在遥远的历史长河。与叙述历史事件和人物的众多著作不同，国史清谈丛书之历史往事系列将中国历史上众多的帝王、文人、政客、将帅们按照人物的性格、行事、经历及后人评价等总结出不同的特点，按照特征归类成篇。帝王的雄才大略、荒淫残暴、昏聩误国，文人的才华横溢、风雅谐趣、嗜酒狂放，政客的勾斗倾轧、深谋远虑、苦心孤诣，将帅的凶横勇猛、胜负成败、旷古武功都成为本系列各册的主题。编著者通过精炼的文字和故事化的叙述从一个又一个新颖的视角展现出不同历史人物群落的本来面貌以及众多不为读者熟悉的鲜活历史断片。喧嚣渐寂，华光不再。When we look up at the vast night sky and immerse ourselves in the recollection of history, the emperors, generals, poets, capable officials, and heroes of all dynasties are like lonely stars that gradually move away and disappear in the distant river of history. Different from many works that narrate historical events and figures, the Historical Past Series summarizes the different characteristics of many emperors, literati, politicians, and generals in Chinese history according to their personalities, behaviors, experiences, and evaluations by later generations, and classifies them into chapters according to the characteristics. The emperors’ great talents, debauchery, cruelty, and stupidity that led to the country’s downfall, the literati’s talents, elegance, humor, and alcoholism, the politicians’ intrigues, foresight, and painstaking efforts, and the generals’ fierceness, bravery, success, and failure, and ancient martial arts have become the themes of each volume in this series. The author uses refined text and storytelling to present the true face of different historical groups from a new perspective and many vivid historical fragments that readers are not familiar with.
