歷史本身很精彩，歷史可以寫得很好看！

　　《明朝那些事兒》，在第一冊朱元璋卷中，我們一直談到朱棣在驚濤駭浪中，終於排除萬難登上皇帝的寶座，史稱「靖難之役」，第二冊一開始的主角就是朱棣，也就是中國史上赫赫有名的明成祖──永樂大帝。

　　朱棣登基，一個輝煌絢麗的王朝就此揭開序幕，五度揮軍北上遠征蒙古，派鄭和下西洋足跡遠達非洲東岸，南下平定安南；編撰一部光耀史冊，留芳千古的偉大書籍──《永樂大典》，文治武功達到顛峰，明帝國進入空前盛世，朱棣後來於北伐蒙古歸來途中病逝。

　　明朝在經歷了比較清明的「仁宣之治」後開始近入一個動盪的時期，大宦官王振把持朝政胡作非為，導致二十萬精兵命喪土木堡，幸虧一代忠臣于謙力挽狂瀾，挽救了明帝國，但隨即在兩位皇帝爭奪皇位的「奪門之變」中被害身亡。 這一連串的事件和人物都精彩無比，可說是高潮迭起，讓人目不暇接，欲罷不能。

binge reading了简直 九册想要一口气读完 我从小就偏科喜欢理工 觉得历史枯燥 背哪一年送给做了哪些事 但这本书从史料里捏出一个个有血有肉的人。记住了张子明和文天祥的大义 也忘不掉机关算尽太聪明的朱元璋。啊令人唏嘘啊

由于早年读了太多学究书，所以我很痛恨那些故作高深的文章… 其实我也不知道自己写的算什么题材，不是小说，不是史书，但在我看来，体裁视乎并不重要。我想写的，是一部可以再轻松中了解历史的书，一部好看的历史。仅此而已！】- 小引。

刚刚在Kindle上读完的《明朝那些事儿 · 第1部，洪武大帝》，由作者【当年明月】所著，浙江出版社于2011年出版。《明朝那些事儿》全套共七册，每册300页左右。

这是一本关于明代历史的通俗读物。书有趣极了，但还不至于读得无可自拔。因此，平日时，在工作前读几段，入睡前翻几页；周末了，坐在公园的草地上，晒着阳光，读了一会又一会。就这样，它带给了我一周的愉悦。这本书读完了，我迫不及待得翻开下一册 。

十年前，我刚上高一。那时候的历史书是用来一页一页背的；那时候的历史考试是用一个模式接一个模式套路的；只是偶尔，老师扯远了，讲了一些好玩的故事。那时的我不知道，原来历史可以写得这样妙趣横生；不然我一定会真心喜欢历史，不仅仅是为了成绩而死记硬背。

《洪武大帝》这一书，主要讲述了明太祖从放牛娃到明朝开创者的传奇一生。白纸黑字间，是一个并非生来英雄的，缺点与优点兼具的多面化的朱元璋：做和尚时，是否投身农民起义军，他举棋不定。战场上，他运筹帷幄又知人善任；而高堂之上，他容不下战功赫赫的将才。对敌人，他斩尽杀绝；对亲人，他疼爱有加。虽然仪表远非堂堂，但朱元璋指挥千军万马之时，想必是威风八面。

我很喜欢作者给朱元璋描绘的结局：一位孤独的老人，在庞大的帝国里，最后一次纵马驰奔。【他勒住马头，迎着落日的最后一丝阳光，向壮美河山投下最后一瞥，仰天大笑：我本淮右布衣，天下于我何加焉！】

《洪武大帝》后半部则是，朱元璋去世后，皇太孙朱允炆继位。接着，建文帝削藩，燕王朱棣举兵造反。最后，朱允炆落败，不知所踪；朱棣登基，江山易主。

书介绍到这儿，也近尾声了。但若故事只是关于男人打天下，坐天下，失天下，历史不就太性别单调了吗？

书中两处提到了女性对历史的影响，在此特别强调：

1，朱元璋有难时，她为他送饭；他做了皇帝，她多次阻止他的恶行。她死前，留下遗言：“愿陛下求贤纳谏，有始有终，愿子孙个个贤能，居民安居乐业，江山万年不朽”。

2. 北平防御战：朱棣的长子朱高炽负责驻守北平。南军五十万人攻城，守军不足，城内的妇女也加入了防守，使用板砖和瓦片攻击攻城部队。好一个不爱红装爱武装的精神！

Nice book to know Chinese history of Ming dynasty, the language it's easy for us to understand and interesting

历史科普

[Lulu Cao · Rating 4 out of 5]

I appreciate that the author writes history like writing a story. It leaves me vivid impressions of characters and events. I would love to read more books in this series to learn the rest of Ming history.

The author provides extra details about related cultures and famous events and people at the time when the main thread of stories goes. It helps me connect them together. It’s good to learn what’s preceding today’s China and Chinese traditions. I see many customs or practices that still exist today, such as naming descendants.

The book’s disadvantage is that it’s a bit verbose. To make the content more story-like, the author has added quite a bit unnecessary descriptions.

The first thing that captured me the most was the last emperor of the Yuan dynasty. As a king of a mighty country, he did not have a broad understanding, a calm mind, nor a firm spirit. He ruled without a plan for the future and was afraid of the enemy. Zhu Yuanzhang (Hongwu Emperor) last regime was inevitable. This is not the usual history book. It’s not boring, but rather fun, light-hearted, and interesting. I couldn’t stop reading it because of the emotions and fun writing style.

thoughts b4 read

i hope the history nerd in me will like this a lot.

i read this for the first time in about 4th grade and thought it was extremely boring. but i also didn't understand 90% of what it was saying, so there's that.

so excited to read a 7 book nonfiction historical saga on the ming dynasty, which will either be the death of me or will revive me. idk which yet

i hope can finish by the end of 2026 LMAO, but we'll see

i do love this writing style though

书的内容还比较有趣。作者也用了夸张和现代的手法增加了幽默和可读性。这么说来老朱真是够奇葩的。

从整本书来看，贯穿性比较差。在一个相同的人物故事里前因对不上后果，感觉作者有点想哪写哪。就拿老朱举例子，有很多生动的例子，有时有比较有见解的内心分析，有时就为了事物的结果轻描淡写了内心的动机，让人没有办法有一个对老朱立体全面的了解。人的思维虽是零碎的，但是特别是要以文体的方式展现给他人还是需要先缕一缕头绪比较好，列个大纲，有个中心思想和总结。

不懂明国历史的可以先看着玩。

ให้ 5 ดาว เขียนได้สนุก เห็นภาพ มีบทวิเคราะห์แทรก แต่แปลไทยห่วยมาก ประโยคไม่เป็นประโยค ชื่อเฉพาะทับศัพท์จีนตลอด ถ้าไม่รู้ภาษาจีนอ่านแทบไม่รู้เรื่อง (บทเรื่องข้าราชการนี่ไม่รู้เรื่องเลย)

看到最后开国大将军没几个善终的 意难平了好久 而且自古以来都是如此 现在回想当年朱文正率众将守卫洪都之战 鄱阳湖大战陈友谅 不禁唏嘘 江山如画 一时多少豪杰

我并不喜欢这种风格的书，但承认它是一套好书（四星只是给这第一部的，五星我会留给这个系列中最好的一部），尤其觉得这些文字适合由于丹逐字朗读，比于丹当正能量教母煮鸡汤大师的论语庄子系列的情境效果好得多。

文笔简练流畅，用大白话生动地勾勒出了明朝的建国时代。作者的文字风趣幽默，让历史不再晦涩难懂，读起来清晰明了。但是作者在文中针对某些历史人物、事件所表达的看法在我看来有些夸张，过于主观，“无事袖手谈性情，有难一死报君王“的价值观我无法苟同，故四星。

一部有趣的历史书。分析了一些不容易注意到东西，描写人物的内心很多，感觉就像第三人称下的第一视角，生动有趣

历史故事，小说笔法。虽然能更轻松地了解历史事件，但很多叙述还是过于片面和主观了。

非常易读的历史小说，唉，成王败寇，都是某种历史的规律。看着那些忠臣义士们最后的下场，不由得感到心酸，也庆幸自己生活在这样一个相对平和的时代。

[Wang Sz Tung Taylor]

明朝那些事儿第一部主要讲述了明朝的开国皇帝朱元璋的事迹，从和尚到皇帝是这本书的副标题。作者以史料为基础，以年代和具体人物为主线，加入小说的写法和对人物的心理分析，以及对当时政治经济制度、人伦道德的演义，语言幽默风趣，作者石悦让历史变成活生生的历史故事。

Holy moly this is unexpectedly good, struggled to give it a rating since there are a few sentences I don’t totally agree with, but what the hell, it’s too good to leave any stars out

朱元璋真是一个高能量alpha
打仗指挥有谋略 开创了明朝后不仅创造了八股文 还创造了大臣禀报要使用TLDR的规定
一开始靠着对元朝官府的恨意波澜壮阔地破元立明 这个执念也让他一生都对官宦非常严格 导致后来连坐无数的胡惟庸案和蓝玉案 被冠上杀人机器的名号
有名有暗 有功有罪 才是人生吧

This is the first book of a seize talking about the Ming Dynasty. The first book talks about how the empire was built and how it developed. After reading this book, I have to say that it is so much better than I thought it would be. I thought this would be as boring as any other historical books that I have read before. However, it turns out that I was wrong. The author used fictional language to tell us the story of Ming Dynasty. He digged into the events and tried to give us the deeper meaning and influence of those events in a objective way. I found this book more interesting than the others because the way the author expressed its opinion with humor. He also used metaphor a lot. He explain the influence or relationships of events by comparing to some daily life incidents, which really help the audiences to understand the situation back in Ming Dynasty. The major thing that I learned from this book is how we should learn form the history.

[Rebecca · Rating 3 out of 5]

Phew. This book was kind of a slog for me. I liked the writing style, it was accessible and conversational. But it was also really repetitive, the author kept using the same phrases and that got tiring. I also don't like history books that don't have references in the back. There was a lot of reference to "certain history texts" but no sources, no footnotes, no nothing. I know that Chinese and Western scholarship is different but I like to see proof of research, it's also helpful if I want to do further reading. So that was a bit of a letdown.

[Patrick · Rating 5 out of 5]

A refreshing style of writing from the author, narrating history in the form of a novel, while adding associations to contemporary society to allow easier reading and "lower the barrier" for people who are keen on learning more history but afraid of reading dry texts or textbook/academic style writing that is so prevalent of many history books. A definite recommendation to readers who want to understand more about the Ming Dynasty of China.

[Xuehui Huang · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is such a good book which telling the story about Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang is an excellent emperor but also bloody. Good thing is he put all of his efforts onto anti-corruption. He worked very hard and almost without sleep till he dead. Great militarist and politician must be his tag. I like him and his Dynasty.
