Stonehenge

Autor Rosemary Hill
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 iun 2009
Stonehenge is woven into the earliest Arthurian legends and has been analysed by everyone from archaeologists, to town planners, to the Druids who have made it their spiritual home. By refusing to adopt one theoretical position, Rosemary Hill provides the most wide-ranging and expansive history of the megalithic structure to date, from its creation in 3000 BC to the threat of the thunderous main roads that flank it today.

Recenzii

Her book is a treasure: stylish, thoughtful, miraculously condensed, and as full of knowledge as megalith is full of megalith
She brings genuine originality to the cultural history of Stonehenge; nobody has until now considered it as literature, poetry and art, in this comprehensive way
A fascinating overview
This is a fascinating account of how Stonehenge has been written up over the years ... this is a thoroughly researched history that's both entertaining and authoritative
Clear, intelligent and often highly amusing, this study achieves something new in the voluminous literature on Stonehenge ... excellent.
Intelligent and often witty ... refreshingly unmocking.
A thorough examination of England's most captivating World Heritage Site.
Superbly researched and thoroughly entertaining account of the monument's history
