Editor's Note:
世界史是一个新兴的课题,令它应运而生的是晚近殖民时代单极政治世界的消失,以及更晚近的两极化“冷战”的结束。全球视野悲天悯人,将人类文明之间无止无休的内斗与对决尽收眼底,本书即是要为这一视野的发展尽一份绵力。本书的根本目的在于认识并认可世界历史上一个被忘却的关键角色。传统上,世界被执迷地划分为东方和西方——对于西方来说,东方始于他们家门口的台阶下;对于东方来说,西方这个概念还要远为模糊得多——而将它们连接起来的最重要的因素往往被忽视,或被视为附带性的。这就是中亚。很多世纪以来,从欧亚地缘的核心迸发出来的人类动力,确实塑造了栖居在它周边地带的诸多文明的本质。这一点对于任何熟悉中国历史的人来说都是显而易见的——在中国历史上,游牧部落偶有成功地征服天朝的土地,中亚的举足轻重因此早已得到印证。对于印度来说,络绎不绝的征服者会从北面经由阿富汗的狭窄通道涌入。无可否认的是,抗击东方侵略者的斗争是西方文明史上的一抹重彩,无论抗击的是波斯军还是阿拉伯骑兵、土耳其军或匈奴和蒙古游牧部落的入侵。对处于欧亚大陆边缘的文明来说,首当其冲的是要抵御来自大陆腹地纵深之处的军事威胁,这一当务之急留下了戏剧性的遗产供现代人观察。在自然景观上,随着日积月累,陆地的主要断层线与次要断层线就会明显区分开来。于是,地堑与火山的裂缝、大峡谷与山脉的延伸,向我们揭示了大地历经的洗礼冲刷。人类历史也是一样,久经岁月磨砺的政治与文化的断层线,表达着人们之间的紧张关系,诉说着那些剑拔弩张关系的经久不衰。本书不仅旨在让人们关注那些主要断层线,还要揭示它们的相关本质。这样一来,欧洲海洋国家的崛起及其对大陆包抄围困的能力就跃然纸上,可称为全球政治与经济的开场。正如王赓武教授一再重申的那样,“世界是海洋的”。而对于欧洲来说,其文明与贸易的推动力来自地中海的陆地,因此,其南部沿岸及圣地的丧失,标志着它被不共戴天的敌人困于一隅,与外面的繁华世界从此隔绝。
