书籍简介

几个世纪以来，埃特纳火山喷发的熔岩吞噬了山坡上星罗棋布的城镇、村庄、梯田、果园、葡萄园和柑橘园。然而，它仍然是西西里岛四分之一人口的家园。为什么？因为埃特纳火山每次喷发后，都会以肥沃、富饶和壮丽的景色来回报它的人民。

在这本非凡的新书中，海伦娜·艾德礼将游记与历史、神话、地质、美食和园艺相结合，讲述了一个在西西里岛危险也迷人的地标阴影下生活的独特故事。她带领读者冒险穿过遍布熔岩的田野和由武装警卫巡逻的开心果园；穿过昏暗的玄武岩农舍和曾经用来储存积雪的洞穴，艾德礼收集了几个世纪以来被这片变幻莫测的土地所吸引的艺术家、作家、农民和科学家们的故事：从早期的罗马人、阿拉伯人和诺曼人定居者，到浪漫主义诗人、维多利亚时代的地理学家，再到如今生活和工作在这里的当地居民。本书既是对西西里岛丰富多彩历史的引人入胜的描述，也是对人类与自然景观之间不断变化的关系的深刻思考。

For centuries, Mount Etna has sent lava to engulf the towns and villages, terraced fields, orchards, vineyards, and citrus groves that nestle across its slopes. But still it remains home to a quarter of Sicily’s population. Why? Because Etna has always rewarded her people after every eruption with a landscape of unparalleled fertility, richness and drama.

In this extraordinary new book, Helena Attlee combines travel writing with history, mythology, geology, gastronomy and horticulture to tell a unique story of life in the shadow of Sicily’s most dangerous and alluring landmark. Venturing through lava-strewn fields and pistachio groves patrolled by armed guards; past dusky, basalt-built farmyards, and caves once used to store snow, Attlee gathers tales of the artists, writers, farmers, and scientists who have for centuries been drawn to this unpredictable landscape: from the early Roman, Arabic and Norman settlers, Romantic poets and Victorian geologists, to the local families who live and work there today. It is at once a compelling account of Sicily’s rich and varied past, and a powerful meditation on humanity’s ever-changing relationship with landscape.
