Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Large Size Book.The fifth century was perhaps the most spectacular period in the history of mankind- the age of the Persian kings Darius and Xerxes, the time of the Buddha, Confucius, Herodotus, Anaxagoras, Socrates, Pericles, and of the first explorations into the human soul and the mysteries of the universe. Through Vidal's hero-narrator, Cyrus Spitama, grandson of the prophet Zoroaster, we witness at first hand the wonders of the epoch. Brought up in a Persian court whose reign extends from the Mediterranean to India, Cyrus is educated as a soldier with his closest friend,Xerxes, who is destined to become master of this empire. In early manhood he is made an ambassador and journeys far beyond the boundaries of the known world on missions for his king. Now blind and aged, he relates to his young nephew, Democritus of Abdera, the story of his travels and encounters. In his arduous missions to India and Cathay, Cyrus sought not only wealth and trade routes for his monarch but also the answer to the question that dominates his life: How was the universe created, and why was evil created along with good? His quest brings him to the park in India to which the Buddha has retreated, to the riverbank in Cathay where he fishes with Confucius, and finally to the shaded courtyard in Athens where he ends his life and where one day a young stonemason named Socrates comes to repair his wall. Cyrus' narrative brings the reader face to face with some of the greatest men who ever lived, in vivid and unforgettable detail. It makes alive the ancient world in which so many of our modern world's ideas- spiritual, philosophical, political and scientific- were conceived. And it gives fresh excitement to these astounding intellectual discoveries. Language: eng Language: eng Language: eng.
