书籍简介

法老的生活，戏剧性的统治和持久的遗产拉美西斯大帝（Ramess the Great），从国际知名的埃及学家托比·威尔金森

“作者通过讲述细节和有见地的分析成功地使这个遥远的年龄栩栩如生……每当他可以的情况下，作者都会利用机会在面具下凝视。”

拉美西斯二世（Ramesses II）从1279年至公元前1213年统治了尼罗河谷和更广泛的埃及帝国，这是法老历史上较长的统治者之一。他是一位文化创新者，一个不懈的自我宣传者，也是一位精明的外交官 - 卡德什战役之后签署的和平条约是录制的历史上DI一个。他用来所有其他埃及法老王，留下了阿布·辛贝尔（Abu Simbel）的庙宇。卡纳克大厅大厅；他的妻子内尔塔里（Nefertari）的坟墓；还有他自己的纪念馆，拉美塞姆（Ramesseum）。

他的声誉也使所有其他法老王都黯然失色：他被谴责是一名独裁者，在文学中以ozymandias的身份闻名，并被早期的古董人称为年轻的孟农人。他的统治与古埃及的力量与繁荣（公元1539 - 1069年）的高峰相吻合。

在这本传记中，托比·威尔金森（Toby Wilkinson）考虑了拉米塞斯（Ramesses）的关注和偏好，揭示了巨型狂暴统治者的方法和动机，并在我们自己的时代经验教训。

The life, dramatic reign, and enduring legacy of the pharaoh Ramesses the Great, with lessons for the present, from internationally acclaimed Egyptologist Toby Wilkinson

“The author succeeds in bringing this distant age to life through telling detail and insightful analysis. . . . Whenever he can, the author takes advantage of opportunities to peer beneath the mask.”―The Economist

Ramesses II ruled the Nile Valley and the wider Egyptian empire from 1279 to 1213 B.C., one of the longest reigns in pharaonic history. He was a cultural innovator, a relentless self-promoter, and an astute way―the peace treaty signed after the Battle of Kadesh was the first in recorded history. He outbuilt every other Egyptian pharaoh, leaving behind the temples of Abu Simbel; the great hypostyle hall of Karnak; the tomb for his wife Nefertari; and his own memorial, the Ramesseum.

His reputation eclipsed that of all other pharaohs as well: he was decried in the Bible as a despot, famed in literature as Ozymandias, and lauded by early antiquarians as the Younger Memnon. His rule coincided with the peak of ancient Egypt’s power and prosperity, the New Kingdom (1539–1069 B.C.).

In this authoritative biography, Toby Wilkinson considers Ramesses’ preoccupations and preferences, uncovering the methods and motivations of a megalomaniac ruler, with lessons for our own time.
