| Résumé : |
This is the ultimate visual survey of Jewish history from the emergence of the Jews in ancient Palestine right up to the present day. One hundred specially commissioned, richly detailed maps, based on the research of scholar and world authority MARTIN GILBERT, reveal the scope of the Jewish story across the world and over the centuries, while supporting text and carefully selected pictures and photographs analyze and explain the nature and extent of the Jewish achievement.The result is an exciting, immediate depiction of the turbulent history of one of the world’s most remarkable peoples.
Every facet of Jewish life is explored, with authoritative coverage of such crucial topics as the great diasporas, the flowering ofYiddish culture in Europe, the pogroms and persecutions - from the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492 to the tragic years of the Holocaust - the rebirth of Zionism in the 19th century, the foundation of modern Israel, the Arab-Israeli conflict and the way of life of Jews inside and outside their homeland in the modern world. Above all, The Illustrated Atlas of Jewish Civilization explains why the Jewish identity, dispersed through different cultures, traditions and even races, has survived and flourished. |
