A History of the Atlantic: Exploration, Wealth, and Hegemony/大西洋史：探索、财富与& [Chinese]

By 保罗·布特尔 and 新华书店北美网

"This book retells global history from a unique maritime perspective. It opens with the legends and realities of the Atlantic before the Iberian discovery, then chronicles the experiences of adventurers on the ocean, the trade and rivalries among great powers, the rise of Atlantic port cities like New York and Liverpool, and the major historical events that took place there across different eras. It also provides a comprehensive analysis of the transformed fate of maritime peoples and the significance of the Atlantic campaigns during the two world wars of the 20th century.

For too long, history has been written from a terrestrial (often national) perspective, but the ocean offers an alternative viewpoint grounded in contact, exchange, and transformation. Professor Butel's book charts a new direction for current Atlantic historical research, helping to deepen and refine our understanding in this area.

本书以独特的海洋视角，重新讲述全球历史。全书以伊比利亚人发现大西洋之前的传说与现实开篇，描述了冒险家们在大西洋上的经历，各强国在大西洋上的贸易和争夺，纽约和利物浦等大西洋上港口城市的发展，各时期发生在大西洋的重要历史事件等，还全面分析了海上民族的命运改变以及20世纪两次世界大战中大西洋战役的重要性。长期以来，历史都是从陆地(通常是国家)的角度来书写的，而海洋则提供了另一种立足于接触、交流和转变的视角。布特尔的书为当下大西洋历史研究提供了一个新的方向，将有助于深化、精细在这个方面的认识。
