译文: Joseph Glarthaar的《战火的洗礼》 虽然 不是第一项 [关于(在内战期间的)黑人士兵和他们的白人军官的]优秀研究但是 以前的任何研究都使用了 更多的 书信和日记包括从黑人士兵那里得到的珍稀资料并且更为 强烈地集中于 (在黑人部队中的)黑白关系 上。

explain

解释: 前面的分句省略了 Although 。but 之后的分句的结构较为复杂:and 连接个两个并列的比较,一个是more letters and diaries,一个是concentrates more intensly on,这两个比较的后项都是句尾的than do any of its predecessors,这就相当于前面的比较省略了比较的后项。后一个比较中有一个倒装: concentrates /more intensely/ on Black-White relations (in Black regiments) thando any of its predecessors的正常语序应该是: concentrates on Black-White relations (in Black regiments) /more intensely/ than do any of its predecessors。more intensely被提前到concentrateson 之间,实际上是同时打乱了句子中的这两个固定搭配。作者之所以这样写,是因为and后面的比较与前面共用了一个than,如果按照刚才的语序,容易被人理解成than是第二个比较所独用的。
