《破译埃及密码》是让-弗朗索瓦·商博良的首部英文传记。商博良是法国大革命时期一个贫穷、傲慢且才华横溢的孩子，他在破译埃及象形文字方面取得了重大突破。这本传记描绘了商博良充满戏剧性的一生及其成就：他时而是一位少年教授，时而是拿破仑的支持者，时而是流亡者，时而是狂热的解码者，时而又是卢浮宫的馆长，他活得充实饱满，但却因此英年早逝。安德鲁·罗宾逊以饱满热情的笔触，生动地呈现了商博良这个人，以及他所经历的挫折和最终的胜利。

 

Cracking the Egyptian Code is the first biography in English of Jean-Fran?ois Champollion, the impoverished, arrogant and brilliant child of the French Revolution who made the vital breakthrough in deciphering the Egyptian hieroglyphs. This account charts Champollion’s dramatic life and achievements: by turns a teenage professor, a supporter of Napoleon, an exile, a fanatical decipherer and a curator at the Louvre, he lived life to the full but drove himself into an early grave. Andrew Robinson’s full-blooded account brings the man, his setbacks and his ultimate triumphs vividly to life.
