DAVID AND SOLOMON: IN SEARCH OF THE BIBLE’S SACRED KINGS AND THE ROOTS OF THE WESTERN TRADITION
Book ID/图书代码: 02740006B01731
English Summary/英文概要: There has been an explosion of recent discoveries in biblical archaeology. These finds have shed powerful light on figures and stories from the Bible -- and completely changed what we know about some of its most famous characters. The reputations of the first great kings, David and Solomon, evolved over hundreds of years. In David and Solomon, leading archaeologists Israel Finkelstein and Neil Asher Silberman focus on the two great leaders as a window into the entire biblical era. David and Solomon covers one thousand years of ancient civilization, separating fact from legend and proving that the roots of the western tradition lie very deep.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 近来,对圣经进行考古学研究取得了重大的进展。这些突破加深了我们对于圣经中人物及故事的了解 -- 甚至可以说完全颠覆了我们对圣经中一些著名人物的认知。第一代伟大国王,大卫王和所罗门的名声,在几百年来一直不断变化着。在《大卫王与所罗门》一书中,知名考古学家Israel Finkelstein与Neil Asher Silberman以这两位伟大的领袖人物为突破口,深入观察整个圣经时期。本书将涉及长达一千余年的古代文明,带领读者们分辨事实与传奇,最终证明西方传统的深刻根源。(DC)

NEIL ASHER SILBERMAN我出生于波士顿,后在耶路撒冷学习考古,毕生我都在从事写作与思考考古学发现的政治与当代含义。在完成一系列有关中东历史的考古学书籍创作后,我与挚友兼同事Israel Finkelstein展开合作,希望能从现代视角重建圣经历史及促成希伯来圣经产生的远古社会。我们希望我们的理论能够引发对犹太基督传统的思考与反思。同样重要的是,他们为我们提供了一个范例,有关于考古学发展如何深远地影响着我们对过去传统观念的认知,而这些认知又如何正在影响着现代人们对几乎所有历史时期及世界各地的理解和看法。

NEIL ASHER SILBERMAN I was born in Boston and trained in Archaeology in Jerusalem, and I’ve spent most of my career writing and thinking about the politics and contemporary meanings of archaeological discoveries. After completing a series of books about the history of Archaeology in the Middle East, I teamed up with my good friend and colleague Israel Finkelstein to see what we could accomplish in the re-construction of modern views of biblical history and the ancient societies in which the Hebrew scriptures arose. We hope that our theories stimulate thinking and reflection about the origins of the Judeo-Christian tradition. No less important, they offer an example of the kind of far-reaching archaeological transformation of our conventional view of the past that is now affecting modern understandings of nearly every historical period, in nearly every region of the world.
