About the Book

Un fascinante recorrido por las maravillas del mundo antiguo, sus secretos, la realidad y las leyendas que las han acompañado, de la mano del Manfredi arqueólogo, apasionado por su profesión, riguroso y excelente divulgador.

Los jardines que un rey hizo construir para su amada. Una tumba desmesurada para un solo hombre. Un dios con carne de marfil y ropajes de oro, sentado en su trono. Una estatua de bronce de treinta y dos metros de altura, el desafío de un discípulo a su inalcanzable maestro. El espectacular sepulcro rodeado de columnas de un reyezuelo presuntuoso. El templo más grande jamás construido, erigido para la diosa. Una torre en una islita cuya luz guiaba a los navegantes desorientados en la noche.

Los jardines colgantes de Babilonia, la gran pirámide de Guiza, el Zeus de Fidias, el coloso de Rodas, el mausoleo de Halicarnaso, el templo de Artemisa y el faro de Alejandría. Son las obras más impresionantes de la Antigüedad, el orgullo de las grandes civilizaciones del pasado, que aún hoy encienden nuestra imaginación. A ellas Manfredi suma otra, menos conocida e igualmente excepcional: la tumba-santuario de Antíoco I en la cima de una montaña de Turquía.

Valerio Massimo Manfredi es internacionalmente conocido como el gran autor de novela histórica sobre el mundo antiguo. Entre sus títulos más conocidos están la trilogía Aléxandros, La última legión, El tirano, El imperio de los dragones, El ejército perdido, Los idus de marzo, Odiseo. El juramento y Odiseo. El retorno.

Pero Manfredi también es arqueólogo, especializado en arqueología clásica. Ha impartido clases en universidades de Italia y de otros países. Ha conducido numerosas excavaciones y ha publicado artículos y ensayos académicos, además de colaborar en periódicos y revistas. Ha escrito y dirigido documentales sobre la Antigüedad para las cadenas más importantes de televisión.

Toda esta enorme dedicación a un tema que le apasiona se concentra ahora en Las maravillas del mundo antiguo, donde nos invita a viajar por la Historia y a conocer a quienes la vivieron y la estudian.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A fascinating journey through the wonders of the ancient world, its secrets, reality and the legends that have always been a part of it, as seen through the eyes of Manfredi, a passionate archeologist.

The beautiful gardens that a king made for his beloved; An over-the-top tomb for only one man; A tower in the middle of a small island whose light would guide the fishermen by night; The floating gardens of Babilon; the great pyramid of Guiza; Zeus of Phidias; these are the most important stories of ancient times, the pride and joy of past great civilizations, those that still spark our imagination. To these, Manfredi adds one more story, one that is less known but just as extraordinary: the tumb of Antioco I at the peak of a mountain in Turkey.

Valerio Massimo Manfredi is internationally known as the great author of historical novels about the ancient world. Among his most known works lies the Alexandros trilogy. Manfredi is also an archeologist specialized in classical archeologist. He has led numerous excavations and has published many academic articles and essays. He has written and directed many documentaries about ancient times. All the dedication towards this subject that he is so passionate about is found here in Las maravillas del mundo antiguo/Marvels of the Ancient World, where he invites his readers to travel through history and get to know those who lived it and those who now study it.
