Details
Devoted to the ancient civilisation of Sardinia. Not only has this volume been able to avail itself of very recent discoveries, some of which have expanded and further defined the historical pattern wherein the fascinating nuragic civilisation is inscribed, but het very structure of the work has in a certain sense anticipated the effect of these discoveries by stressing the need to investigate the history of the ancient Sardinian civilisation without losing sight of its relationships with the great contemporary cultures of the eastern Mediterranean and mutual influences arising therefrom; or, in other terms, by insisting on Sardinia's assiduous participation, during the process of formation of an original culture of its own, in the civil life of the Mediterranean world, is religious and artistic experiences, its technical discoveries and economic problems. So vast and many-facetted an approach leads to fuller recognition of the peculiar characteristics of the civilisation of Sardinia.
