Sir Austen Henry Layard (1817-1894) was one of the leading British archaeologists of the nineteenth century. He was not a professional archeologist, and he wore many hats in his public career - diplomat, politician, art connoisseur, and a man of letters. He entered the London legal profession in 1836 under the sponsorship of his wealthy uncle, Benjamin Austen. He remained there until 1839 when he set off, with his traveling companion Edward Mitford, on his first expedition to Nineveh and the region of Mesopotamia at Mosul. Over the next decade the British Museum unloaded hundreds of tons of sculpture and artifacts from Layard's excavations. His books won acclaim for their mix of high adventure and archeology embroiled in an intoxicating stew of compelling characters and sudden crises. He made the Assyrians accessible to common people and brought alive a shadowy Biblical civilization. HOLY LAND BOX 1

2019Come si sopravvive da profughi siriani? Come e dove si è accolti? Da cosa si scappa? Quanto restano forti, dopo otto anni di conflitto, la nostalgia e il ricordo? Il ritorno è davvero una possibilità? La guerra è davvero finita? Ci sono buoni e cattivi? Le risposte a queste domande dalle voci delle vere vittime, di chi scappa e di chi ha paura a tornare. Il loro dramma in un libro di inchiesta, denuncia e amore. "Matrimonio siriano, un nuovo viaggio" nasce dai viaggi benefici di due neo-sposi e dal bisogno di verità e giustizia di una giornalista. Comincia quando Laura Tangherlini, assieme al marito cantautore Marco Rò, ha voluto organizzare in chiave completamente benefica per i profughi siriani le sue nozze in Umbria, incontrando e aiutando poi quegli stessi profughi in Libano e Turchia. E termina in Giordania, dove l'autrice torna, da sola, per continuare il suo progetto di ascolto e soprattutto di aiuto concreto verso quel popolo di cui si era innamorata nel 2009, soggiornando a Damasco per studio. Al dito ormai la fede e sulle spalle chili di aiuti propri e inviati da tanti conoscenti e telespettatori che negli anni hanno seguito e sostenuto questo molteplice viaggio d'amore, colorato da momenti di festa, racconti dolorosi, incontri musicali, personali iniziative benefiche e il duro lavoro di alcune ong tra cui Terre des Hommes, Un Ponte per, Avsi, Intersos, Vento di Terra, Uisp, Ai.Bi. Amici dei Bambini, Kids for Paradise, Amal for Education. Una nuova finestra di verità aperta su un mondo che i nostri media ci fanno ignorare. Prefazione di Gian Antonio Stella. Introduzione di Corradino Mineo. Autori: Laura Tangherlini. Prefazione: Gian Antonio Stella, Corradino Mineo.
