图书描述

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY

New York Times • Christian Science Monitor • NPR • Seattle Times • St. Louis Dispatch

National Book Critics Circle Finalist -- American Library Association Notable Book

A thrilling and revelatory narrative of one of the most epic and consequential periods in 20th century history – the Arab Revolt and the secret “great game” to control the Middle East

The Arab Revolt against the Turks in World War One was, in the words of T.E. Lawrence, “a sideshow of a sideshow.” Amidst the slaughter in European trenches, the Western combatants paid scant attention to the Middle Eastern theater. As a result, the conflict was shaped to a remarkable degree by a small handful of adventurers and low-level officers far removed from the corridors of power.

Curt Prüfer was an effete academic attached to the German embassy in Cairo, whose clandestine role was to foment Islamic jihad against British rule. Aaron Aaronsohn was a renowned agronomist and committed Zionist who gained the trust of the Ottoman governor of Syria. William Yale was the fallen scion of the American aristocracy, who traveled the Ottoman Empire on behalf of Standard Oil, dissembling to the Turks in order gain valuable oil concessions. At the center of it all was Lawrence. In early 1914 he was an archaeologist excavating ruins in the sands of Syria; by 1917 he was the most romantic figure of World War One, battling both the enemy and his own government to bring about the vision he had for the Arab people.

The intertwined paths of these four men – the schemes they put in place, the battles they fought, the betrayals they endured and committed – mirror the grandeur, intrigue and tragedy of the war in the desert. Prüfer became Germany’s grand spymaster in the Middle East. Aaronsohn constructed an elaborate Jewish spy-ring in Palestine, only to have the anti-Semitic and bureaucratically-inept British first ignore and then misuse his organization, at tragic personal cost. Yale would become the only American intelligence agent in the entire Middle East – while still secretly on the payroll of Standard Oil. And the enigmatic Lawrence rode into legend at the head of an Arab army, even as he waged secret war against his own nation’s imperial ambitions.

Based on years of intensive primary document research, LAWRENCE IN ARABIA definitively overturns received wisdom on how the modern Middle East was formed. Sweeping in its action, keen in its portraiture, acid in its condemnation of the destruction wrought by European colonial plots, this is a book that brilliantly captures the way in which the folly of the past creates the anguish of the present.

看完了。非常喜欢! 力荐!这么好看的历史书太少见了。

劳伦斯的经历真是洛克“绅士教育”的典型。

很多的偶然事件、运气和互相欺瞒。很重要的一点是确实无法使用西方的价值观来衡量阿拉伯人特别是贝都因人的沙漠部落规则和价值。阿拉伯人真是好斗却不善战,懒惰又贪心。

因为最近中东局势的缘故,对这片地区政治格局的形成产生了兴趣,于是买了这本最新的书。本来是抱定看一本繁杂专著的心情翻开的,但没想到其中呈现的是这样一个妙趣横生的故事和光怪陆离的世界。(好吧有些地方令人悚然) 一个关于默默无名的小人物如何在阴差阳错之下被推上历史...

中东这块全世界最不太平的土地,是文明国家之间的粘合剂。现代中东形成于20世纪奥斯曼帝国解体的废墟之上,为了瓜分这块巨大的蛋糕,英法在加里波利正面战场失败后,试图从奥斯曼帝国内部对之进行瓦解,期间,阿拉伯人、犹太人都看到了民族独立的契机,在互相利用、出卖,为了...

因为读地中海诗史三部曲中的《1453》与《海洋帝国》,顺着译者陆大鹏的线索,知道了他的另一译作《阿拉伯的劳伦斯》。感觉译者的文笔很好,当然更主要的是我对阿拉伯及中东的历史有兴趣,于是从网上买来了这本书并很快把它读完。 《阿拉伯的劳伦斯》的作者(美国人...

关于“阿拉伯的劳伦斯”的故事有很多,还有一部电影,不过依旧对他了解不多,所以计划买来看看。另外对作者斯科特·安德森这位战地记者深表敬意,也许是因为奔波于同样的环境才能感同身受地写出这样的书吧。而神秘莫测的劳伦斯多多少少也是大家关注的焦点吧。
