Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. I began reading the Bible at my fathers bedside. During the last weeks of his father's life, Aldo Cazzullo begins rereading the Bible to better understand the world his devout father inhabited. While recognizing its spiritual and religious value, he finds a book that speaks of us. To read itor to revisit its stories, as we are about to dois not just a spiritual journey. It is a pleasure for mind and soul. The best-read book in the world has never had a more wide-ranging and fascinating presentation.Until a few generations ago, people of the Western world believed they lived under the watchful eye of God.

But that familiarity with the Bible is no longer a mainstay of the contemporary secular world. In The God of Our Fathers, the bestselling international author and Italys most prominent journalist Aldo Cazzullo takes us through the key stories of the Old Testament, mining them for their beauty, insights, and mysteries.Cazzullo begins much the way many of the readers of The God of Our Fathers will: As someone who knows their culture has been indelibly shaped by the Bible but knows very little of what exactly is within its pages. He finally begins reading it at his fathers deathbed, as a way to connect to the life of a beloved believer. The famous painter Marc Chagall referred to the Bible as the colored alphabet into which all Western painters dipped their brushes. In both the Old and New Testaments, billions have found inspiration, solace, and joy. Beginning with the Creation, Cazzullo retells many of its stories, from those of its great womenincluding Judith, Jael, and Esther, who, by killing an evil man or by having him killed, saved millions of just peopleto the triumphant ode to love that is the Song of Solomon. He connects these stories to modern day experiences, the histories of the worlds religions, as well as to art, philosophy, and other great literary works both ancient and new.An exciting and illuminating journey that takes readers to the roots of Western culture and identity, The God of Our Fathers reveals the Bible as a stunning literary achievement, containing the full breadth of the human experience. This book will fascinate anyone who loves story, mystical texts, and comprehensive histories, and will enlarge our sense of how we fit in today's world.Translated from the Italian by Sylvia Notini Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardback. Zustand: New. From the international bestselling author and notable journalist Aldo Cazzullo comes a brilliantly researched and extremely accessible journey through the history and legacy of the Roman Empire. "The only way to narrate over a thousand years of history is to understand what it has left us. To tell the reasons, the things and the stories, thanks to which Roman civilization is alive". From its mythical foundations and epic construction to its enduring historical and cultural impact, the ancient Roman Empire has long fascinated readers across the world. In The Neverending Empire esteemed Italian journalist Aldo Cazzullo describes an exciting new historical perspective: that the Roman Empire never fell. In fact, its influence reaches further and deeper than ever. Beginning with the origins of Rome, and the literary myth of Aeneas and Romulus, Cazzullo takes the reader on a page-turning voyage through ancient history, bringing to life the most captivating moments and characters of a dominant Empire: the republican age, with heroic men and women willing to die for their country. The adventure of coup plotters like Catiline and revolutionaries like Spartacus, the slave who inspired rebels of every age. The extraordinary stories of Julius Caesar and Octavian Augustus, two of the greatest leaders to have lived. Cazzullo goes on to draw fascinating parallels between the ancient and modern world, revealing how Rome lives on, across every facet of life and society. The ancient Romans have inspired poets, and artists, from Dante to Hollywood. They have dictated the rules of war, architecture, language and law. They have inspired America's democratic influence and the digital revolution led by Mark Zuckerberg, a great admirer of Emperor Augustus: the first man to lead a multi-ethnic community of people who didn't know each other but shared language, images and culture. From the Napoleonic to the British regimes, the ideas and philosophies of ancient Rome have been much imitated, but never surpassed. This is the remarkable story of an enduring Empire. An Empire that never died. An Empire that lives on, forever.
