书籍简介

一段穿越古代世界的视觉之旅

《古代世界：一部视觉历史》以独特的视觉方式探索古代主要文明的文化。它将历史版画与通俗易懂的现代评注相结合，既是一场视觉盛宴，也是一份宝贵的参考资料。

本书主体部分聚焦于古埃及、美索不达米亚、罗马和古希腊，通过专题跨页图文并茂的方式，逐一详尽阐述了各个文明的方方面面。第二部分则包含时间轴、地图以及对同期世界各地其他重要文明的概述。

因此，读者既能近距离了解这四大文明——它们对现代读者而言有着无穷的吸引力——又能更全面地了解塑造古代世界的全球文化。

A Visual Journey Through the Ancient World

The Ancient World: A Visual History offers a uniquely visual approach to exploring the cultures of the key civilizations of ancient times. By combining historic engravings with an accessible modern commentary, it creates both a visual celebration and an invaluable reference.

The main section of the book focuses on ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Rome, and Greece, offering a detailed exposition of each in turn through thematic spreads depicting many aspects of their cultures. A second section features timelines, maps, and overviews of the other key civilizations that were flourishing all over the world across the same period.

Thus the reader is offered both a close-up view of the four major peoples who hold an endless fascination for modern readers, plus a broader panorama of the global cultures that shaped the ancient world.
