Jerusalem is the epic history of three thousand years of faith, fanaticism, bloodshed, and coexistence, from King David to the 21st century, from the birth of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam to the Israel-Palestine conflict.
How did this small, remote town become the Holy City, the “center 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 who created, destroyed, chronicled and believed in Jerusalem. As well as the many ordinary Jerusalemites who have left their mark on the city, its cast varies from Solomon, Saladin and Suleiman the Magnificent to Cleopatra, Caligula and Churchill; from Abraham to Jesus and Muhammad; from the ancient world of Jezebel, Nebuchadnezzar, Herod and Nero to the modern times of the Kaiser, Disraeli, Mark Twain, Lincoln, Rasputin, Lawrence of Arabia and Moshe Dayan.
In this masterful narrative, Simon Sebag Montefiore brings the holy city to life and draws on the latest scholarship, his own family history, and a lifetime of study to show that the story of Jerusalem is truly the story of the world.

评分能够让三种宗教信仰的人视为圣城,而且魂牵梦绕、顶礼膜拜、痛哭流涕、浴血奋战的,恐怕只有耶鲁撒冷了。这座一直存在于央视新闻频道中的城市,从我第一次知道她起,就充满着战火和硝烟,或者是刺杀与仇恨。如果说出最能代表着做城市的几个人,在我印象里可能是阿拉法特和沙龙...
评分读《耶路撒冷三千年》源于探究西方历史的好奇心。上学时读余秋雨的《文化苦旅》和《文明的碎片》,多年过后那些散文、故事基本都忘得一干二净了,但当时的一个感悟却顽强地“存活”了下来:宗教对西方文明的传承和保留起着至关重要的作用。我甚至认为:与中国周而复始地“快速...
