書籍簡介

三千年來，地中海一直是偉大的文明中心之一。大衞·阿布拉菲亞的《偉大的海》是第一部完整的地中海歷史，從公元前3500年在馬耳他建起的廟宇到現代旅遊業。從直布羅陀到雅法，從熱那亞到突尼斯，跨越時間和整個非凡的地中海空間，給朝聖者、海盜、蘇丹和海軍指揮官帶來了生命，這是一個塑造了世界歷史的海洋故事。

For over three thousand years, the Mediterranean Sea has been one of the great centres of civilization. David Abulafia's The Great Sea is the first complete history of the Mediterranean, from the erection of temples on Malta around 3500 BC to modern tourism. Ranging across time and the whole extraordinary space of the Mediterranean from Gibraltar to Jaffa, Genoa to Tunis, and bringing to life pilgrims, pirates, sultans and naval commanders, this is the story of the sea that has shaped much of world history.
