THE ATLANTIS BLUEPRINT: UNLOCKING THE ANCIENT MYSTERIES OF A LONG-LOST CIVILIZATION
Book ID/图书代码: 03633010B35784
English Summary/英文概要: In 1982, the American scholar Charles Hapgood made an astonishing claim to a young librarian, Rand Flem-Ath - that civilization was almost 100,000 years old and he had the evidence to prove it. Before he could substantiate this remarkable assertion, Hapgood died. Together with fellow author Colin Wilson, Flem-Ath set out to track down the truth behind the scholar’s statements. Their study of the world’s most sacred sites - Stonehenge, the Great Pyramids and many others - led them to an amazing discovery. Far from being built by local people for local reasons, these monuments formed an undeniable geometrical pattern. This is turn implied the existence of an ancient advanced civilization, one that existed before the Flood that destroyed Atlantis and whose knowledge of the world was far wider than had previously been thought possible. This book deciphers this remarkable code and the reasons behind it: the attempt by scientists from Atlantis to preserve a legacy of their civilisation. The book presents its argument with enormous persuasiveness - namely that our civilization is not the first to occupy the planet, nor is it likely to be the last.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: “光的文明”:隐藏在所有不解之谜背后的宏伟蓝图
自从古希腊哲学家柏拉图在其《对话录》中记录了一片传说中有高度文明发展的古老大陆亚特兰蒂斯(即大西洲)以后,世人对于这个史前理想国的追寻一直不曾停止。在西方汗牛充栋的相关研究著作中,著名国际畅销书作家科林·威尔逊在其与神话研究专家兰德·弗莱明一阿特的联合调查中另辟蹊径,不像其他学者一样只是局限在对某一具体地理位置上的亚特兰蒂斯进行寻找,而是从更高的层面上来认识亚特兰蒂斯在整个地球上的文明遗存。他们认为,迄今为止,考古学家们面临的所有谜团——大金字塔,巨石阵,马丘比丘……其实都要追溯到古老的亚特兰蒂斯文明。
在对众多宗教遗址进行了大量实地研究之后,两位作者有了一个惊人的发现:在这些不可思议的文明遗存之间,切实地具有一个紧密联系的复杂网络,并且,它们只可能追溯到业已消失了一万年之久的亚特兰蒂斯大陆。他们将该网络命名为“亚特兰蒂斯蓝图”。(BD)
Awards/获奖情况:’The Atlantis Blueprint ends with a question--is there a city beneath the ice of Antarctica? In fact, the book is a mystery-fest, linking a host of popular enigmas to the theory that civilisation is thousands, perhaps tens of thousands, of years older than we think. It proposes the existence of an antediluvian world-wide maritime civilisation whose blueprint left a legacy of specially positioned sacred sites around the world and whose centre, Atlantis, may be in Antarctica due to earth crust displacement. If any of this sounds familiar, its because much of it is not new. Indeed this book constantly cites other related literature to support its ideas, bringing in such writers as Graham Hancock, Michael Baigent and Robert Bauval. Rejecting some especially outlandish theories, The Atlantis Blueprint shows a will to speak sensibly and it is easy to agree that conventional science has historically underestimated our earliest ancestors and that archaeology is now pushing back the age of civilisation. Readers would need to be experts in a wide variety of disciplines to assess exactly how much scepticism this book deserves, but many will possess enough general knowledge to debate with parts of it. The Atlantis Blueprint is, whatever else, a thought-provoking assemblage of fringe science theories on some of the worlds most enduring mysteries. And, we remember, some of sciences most brilliant theories were derided in their time.’---Karen Tiley, Amazon.co.uk ’Extraordinary and compellingly plausible ...provides compelling evidence that Atlantis not only existed but was, in fact, the cradle of an advanced and higly sophisticated civilisation that spanned the world as far back as 100,000 years’---Daily Mail
