Sommario/riassunto |
|
Goldhill takes on the archaeology of human imagination, hope, and disaster to provide a tour through the history of this image filled, ideology laden city. Along the way we discover the forgotten stories and the lesser known aspects of politics that continue to make Jerusalem one of the most embattled cities in the world. |
