À propos de cet audio

This rich and magisterial work traces Palestine's millennia-old heritage, uncovering cultures and societies of astounding depth and complexity that stretch back to the very beginnings of recorded history.

Starting with the earliest references in Egyptian and Assyrian texts, Nur Masalha explores how Palestine and its Palestinian identity have evolved over thousands of years, from the Bronze Age to the present day. Drawing on a rich body of sources and the latest archaeological evidence, Masalha shows how Palestine's multicultural past has been distorted and mythologized by Biblical lore and the Israel-Palestinian conflict.

In the process, Masalha reveals that the concept of Palestine, contrary to accepted belief, is not a modern invention or one constructed in opposition to Israel, but rooted firmly in ancient past. Palestine represents the authoritative account of the country's history.

Good history is about how and why. Poor history is about dates, names and places. This book is an unrelenting recitation of dated, names and places with little analysis, at least until the final chapter. Perhaps reading the physical book, where it would be possible to skim over some of the endless lists, would be less painful but listening to them is interminable. Even the last chapter, which at least makes an effort at argument, never quite gets there. Overall, very disappointing.

Unrelenting data, precious little argument
