However, there is a lot of hypothetical conjecture on the authors part with regards to linking of some events to prove their theories correct. I could give you a pretty convincing argument for the existence of a Yetti, but it doesn't mean they exisit. The book however does make me want to read the Bible again soon from a historical viewpoint. 141 RMB at ChaterHouse Booktrader, Shanghai. 15/11/07 about halfway through now. Fascinating book. 28/05/08 finally done! Pretty interesting read. This book is great fun. It's one of those "what if? " type of books which, to my mind, should be read with tongue firmly in cheek. the historical accuracy of a lot of the content is probably questionable & I'm not sure that the conclusions would stand critical scrutiny ...but it is entertaining & must be worth a read from that perspective alone. Another of these "It could have happened this way, so it must have happened this way" examinations of ancient history. It is filled with faith that the writers of the Bible were all wrong, and that later writers who agree in part with the author were all correct. The author must be one of the philosophical children of Erich von Däniken's "Chariots of the Gods." By the way, this is the same author who recently sued Brown over "The da Vinci Code" because he said Brown stole his theory of Mary Magdalene being the mistress of Christ. Since Baigent claims the theory is fact, it cannot be plagarized. After all, you can't copyright an historical event, you can only copyright fiction. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
Despite--or rather because of--all the veneration that has surrounded the figure of Jesus for centuries, historian Baigent asserts that Jesus and his death have been heavily mythologized. Using his access to hidden archives, secret societies, Masonic records, and the private collections of antiquities traders and their moneyed clients, he explores the religious and political climate in which Jesus was born and raised, examining not only the conflicts between the Romans and the Jews, but the strife within the different factions of the Jewish Zealot movement. He chronicles the migrations of Jesus's family, his exposure to other cultures, and the events, teachings, and influences that were most likely to have shaped his early years. Baigent also uncovers the inconsistencies and biases in the accounts of the major historians of Jesus's time, including Josephus, Pliny, and Tacitus. Their enduring influence reveals that spin is not a new phenomenon.--From publisher description. No library descriptions found. |
