Sicily(ISBN=9781586421311) fb2 免费 lrf 下载 kindle azw3 pdf 阿里云

　　Tourists, armchair travelers, and historians will all delight

in this fluid narrative that can be read straight through, dipped

into over time, or used as a reference guide to each period in

Sicily’s fascinating tale. Emigration of people from Sicily often

overshadows the importance of the people who immigrated to the

island through the centuries. These have included several who

became Sicily’s rulers, along with Jews, Ligurians, and Albanians.

Greeks, Romans, Vandals, Goths, Byzantines, Muslims, Normans,

Hohenstaufens, Spaniards, Bourbons, the Savoy Kingdom of Italy and

the modern era have all held sway, and left lasting influences on

the island’s culture and architecture. Sicily’s character has also

been determined by what passed it by: events that affected Europe

generally, namely the Crusades and Columbus’s discovery of the

Americas, remarkably had little influence on Italy’s most famous

island. Maps, biographical notes, suggestions for further reading,

a glossary, pronunciation keys, and much more make this unique book

as essential as it is enjoyable.

World of Benjamin of Tudela: A Medieval Mediterranean Travelogue.

Since then she has spent much of her time in Sicily. Always

fascinated by the varied ethnic groups of New York City, she was
