Jerusalem, 1000–1400
Medieval Jerusalem was a vibrant international center, home to multiple cultures, faiths, and languages. Harmonious and dissonant voices from many lands, including Persians, Turks, Greeks, Syrians, Armenians, Georgians, Copts, Ethiopians, Indians, and Europeans, passed in the narrow streets of a city not much larger than midtown Manhattan. Patrons, artists, pilgrims, poets, and scholars from Christian, Jewish, and Islamic traditions focused their attention on the Holy City, endowing and enriching its sacred buildings, creating luxury goods for its residents, and praising its merits. This artistic fertility was particularly in evidence between the eleventh and fourteenth centuries, notwithsta...

I miei giorni ad Aleppo
«Se dovessi riassumere in due parole ciò di cui parla questo libro, direi che ci racconta semplicemente la forza dell’amore» (fr.

Nei primi due libri – Un istante prima dell’alba e Viene il mattino – ho descritto due fasi diverse del conflitto. Nel primo libro ho condiviso il mio diario dei terribili giorni della guerra in Siria a partire dal mio arrivo nella città di Aleppo nel 2014. Nel secondo libro, ho provato a descrivere il tentativo di ripresa della città dopo la tregua del dicembre 2016. Un tempo ch...
