Whitfield S. Ed.
Le vie della seta. Popoli, culture, Paesaggi
4to, ril. ed. in sovracoperta. pp.480. Dalle pietre preziose alle spezie, dalle fedi religiose alle innovazioni tecnologiche, lo scambio di merci e idee lungo le antiche rotte commerciali delle Vie della Seta svolse un ruolo cruciale nello sviluppo delle civiltà asiatiche, africane ed europee. Questo libro offre la prima visione complessiva di 1500 anni di storia, ponendo al centro del discorso le tipologie dei territori. Con contributi di oltre settanta specialisti di tutto il mondo, ogni capitolo esplora la storia del commercio e delle culture lungo le Vie della Seta nel contesto dei diversi luoghi - steppe, montagne, deserti, fiumi e mari - per rivelare l'estrema importanza che i paesaggi hanno avuto nel determinare i viaggi, le economie e le comunità di coloro che vissero e commerciarono lungo tali rotte. Splendidamente illustrato con le mappe dettagliate degli itinerari, le fotografie degli spettacolari paesaggi dell'Asia centrale e cento tesori iconici, tra oggetti e strutture architettoniche, questo innovativo libro celebra la storia e l'eredità di culture diversissime che si sono sviluppate e hanno prosperato non a dispetto delle loro differenze, ma in virtù di esse.
