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 three thousand years of faith, slaughter, fanaticism and coexistence.
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—kings, empresses, prophets, poets, saints, conquerors and whores—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.
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.
Simon Sebag Montefiore read history at Cambridge University. His books have been published in more than thirty-five languages. Potemkin: Catherine the Great’s Imperial Partner was short-listed for the Samuel Johnson, Duff Cooper and Marsh Biography prizes in Britain. Stalin: The Court of the Red Tsar was awarded the History Book of the Year Prize at the British Book Awards. Young Stalin won the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Biography, the Costa Biography Award (U.K.), le Grand Prix de la biographie politique (France) and the Bruno Kreisky Prize for Political Literature (Austria). A Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, Montefiore lives in London with his wife, the novelist Santa Montefiore, and their two children.
A metropolis history fragmented till now.
評分跳讀,“ Well, if I cannot read a book, I will write one” 作者道,配閤bbc the holy city 服用,療效好。# 然而還是得去看點小清新無腦韓劇來緩緩壓
評分剛到手,不知道怎樣。封麵大大的寫著, national bestseller... 還好吧,暢銷書都一個樣。
評分在新加坡機場閑逛買的 聽說簡體中文版翻譯的差 兩本對照起來看。

这书,盛名之下,其实难读。 时间顺序记史,有点像资治通鉴。 不过读起来,没有资治通鉴有趣。 读到1200年时,便实在读不下去了。 完全是混乱的历史呀。 难以理解那种虔诚的宗教观。 满篇的欺诈与战争,血与泪…… 屠杀,屠杀,屠杀…… 建议作者出个精简版。对绝大多数来说,...
評分即使在世俗的中国读者的眼中,耶路撒冷也是有着神圣光辉的。虽不信,敬远之。 初读时,觉得讲述耶路撒冷的历史,从传说到现代,即便是一本像砖头一样的书,也显得太短。从每一章节后备注的诸多的注释,似乎都能再引申出一本书的故事。 书读过半,便已觉得书中中太多的人,太...
評分/ 文 / 左叔 / 新浪读书签约书评人 / / 书评约稿,请豆邮 / 一个半月前,我在社交媒体上晒出了我想读完《[耶路撒冷]三千年》的计划,当时就有一个我现如今已经忘掉名字的朋友,在我那条动态的下面留言评论。Ta直言我无法顺利读完之后,仍不甘心又补了一句:即便读完了,也未必...
評分首先说一下,这套书目前刚看完第一本,随后看完另外三本时会再进行补充,这里暂时简单做下记录。 关于翻译问题:已经有很多人说了这一点,我是属于一边看书一边翻看评论区,因为有些地方翻译确实不太通顺,理解起来比较困难;不过越往后面读,会越来越顺畅,至少对比前面几节的...
評分耶路撒冷的历史是整个世界的历史,它同时也是犹地亚山间一座长年贫瘠的小镇的编年史。耶路撒冷曾被视为世界的中心,而今它比以往任何时候都要名副其实:这座城市是亚伯拉罕系宗教之间斗争的焦点,是越来越受欢迎的基督教、犹太教和伊斯兰教基本教义派的圣地,是不同文明冲突的...
