Descriere magazin:
Journey to the enigmatic island of
Sardinia deep into the land of the muses with award-winning historian
Jeff Biggers. After three decades of living and traveling in
Italy,
Jeff Biggers finally crossed over to
Sardinia, uncovering a treasury of stories amid major archaeological discoveries rewriting the history of the Mediterranean. Based in the bewitching port of Alghero, guided through the island\'s rich and largely untranslated literature, he embarked on a rare journey around the island to experience its famed cuisine, wine, traditional rituals and thriving cultural movements.
Sardinia is something else. Enchanting spaces and distances to travel, D. H. Lawrence wrote in 1921. On the 100th anniversary of Lawrence\'s visit,
Biggers opens a new window into the history of the island, chronicling how new archaeological findings have placed the island as one of the cradles of the Bronze Age. From the Neolithic array of Stonehenge-like dolmens and menhir stone formations to the thousands of Bronze Age nuraghi towers and burial tombs, the vastness of the uninterrupted cycles of civilizations and their architectural marvels have turned Sardinia into the Mediterranean\'s open museum. Beyond its fabled beaches, reconsidering how its unique history and ways have shaped
Italy and Europe today, Biggers explores how travelers must first understand Sardinia and its ancient history to truly understand the rest of
Italy. In the tradition of Mark Kurlansky\'s Basque History of the World , Peter Hessler\'s Oracle Bones: A
Journey Through in Chin a, and Frances Mayes\' and Tim Parks\' narratives on Italy , In Sardinia is a major new addition to travel writing and literature in Italy.
