英文原版 Jerusalem: The Biography 耶路撒冷三千年 克林顿选书 基辛格推荐 西蒙蒙蒂菲奥里 |
The epic story of Jerusalem told through the lives of the men and women who created, ruled and inhabited it. Jerusalem is the universal city, the capital of two peoples, the shrine of three faiths; it is the prize of empires, the site of Judgement Day and the battlefield of today's clash of civilizations. From King David to Barack Obama, from the birth of Judaism, Christianity and Islam to the Israel-Palestine conflict, this is the epic history of 3,000 years of faith, slaughter, fanaticism and coexistence. How did this small, remote town become the Holy City, the 'centre of the world' and now the key to peace in the Middle East? In a gripping narrative, Simon Sebag Montefiore reveals this ever-changing city in its many incarnations, bringing every epoch and character blazingly to life. Jerusalem's biography is told through the wars, love affairs and revelations of the men and women - kings, empresses, prophets, poets, saints, conquerors and whores - who created, destroyed, chronicled and believed in Jerusalem. Drawing on new archives, current scholarship, his own family papers and a lifetime's study, Montefiore illuminates the essence of sanctity and mysticism, identity and empire in a unique chronicle of the city that many believe will be the setting for the Apocalypse. This is how Jerusalem became Jerusalem, and the only city that exists twice - in heaven and on earth.

一直很想了解西方的历史,在外文书店看到这本书,之后就直接在亚马逊上下单了。而这本书给了一个绝佳的学习机会:内容详实丰富,每一大段历史之后还配有照片说明。
书拿到的时候有气泡纸包裹,还有一个外箱,卖家对于书的保护值得赞赏!
作者的心血之作,史料详实。原著是如此的精彩,但民主与建设出版社出版的译作《耶路撒冷三千年》却是如此的糟糕,令人惋惜。译作中的很多文字基本上是不知所云。
