CHARLES AT SEVENTY: THOUGHTS, HOPES AND DREAMS

Book ID/图书代码: 12687018C00012

English Summary/英文概要: The definitive insight into the extraordinary life of HRH Charles, Prince of Wales as he approaches his seventieth birthday at a watershed in the history of the modern British monarchy.

Exploring beyond the banal newspaper headlines that have caricatured Charles over the years, Charles at Seventy debunks the myths about the man who will be King, telling his full, true story; exploring his complex character, his profoundly held beliefs and deep thinking about religion - including Islam - politics, the armed services, monarchy and the constitution, providing an illuminating portrait of what kind of monarch Charles III will be.

Although this book is not an official biography, the Prince’s office, Clarence House, has agreed to cooperate with the author - who has spent nearly thirty years chronicling the story of the House of Windsor as an author, journalist and broadcaster.

The author will draw on the knowledge and memories of a number of sources close to the Prince who have never spoken before, as well as members of the Royal Household past and present who have served the Prince during his decades of public service. It will reveal that there are plans for Charles to serve as Prince Regent once the Queen turns ninety-five, how he already reads all the Government papers/boxes at his mother’s insistence, and why he feels it is his constitutional duty to pass on to ministers his thoughts and feelings in his controversial ’black spider memos’. Beyond that, Charles at Seventy also reveals the truth about the Prince’s deeply loving but occasionally volatile relationship with his second wife and chief supporter, Camilla.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 本书是在威尔士亲王查尔斯70岁生日将至,现代英国君主政体历史上的一个分水岭时期对其人生的深刻剖析。

多年以来,报纸头条上都是讽刺查尔斯的漫画。而本书将揭开这位即将成为国王的王子的神秘面纱,讲述了他完整而真实的故事;探究他复杂的性格,他的信仰和对宗教的深刻思考——包括伊斯兰教,以及他对政治,军队,君主政体和宪法的看法,告诉读者查尔斯三世将成为一个怎样的国王。

尽管本书不是官方传记,但王子的办公室克拉伦斯王府已同意与作者合作。作为作家、记者和广播员,作者已经花了近30年的时间来记录温莎王室的故事。

作者的信息来源包括一些与王子关系密切但从未公开发声的人,以及过去和现在为皇室成员服务的人员。书中谈到,查尔斯计划在皇后95岁时成为摄政王,他已经阅读了所有的政府文件,以及他母亲的坚持等。除此之外,本书还揭示了王子与第二任妻子、其主要支持者卡米拉之间深厚的感情和波动的关系。(LYR)
