Krátký popis
''Shamelessly engaging, effortlessly scholarly, utterly
refreshing''Thomas Keneally, author of Schindler''s Ark''A small
treasure''New York Times ''This sweepingly confident overview is
more entertainingly told than any previous account''Sunday
TelegraphIreland played the central role in maintaining European
culture when the dark ages settled on Europe in the fifth century:
as Rome was sacked by Visigoths and its empire collapsed, Ireland
became ''the isle of saints and scholars'' that enabled the
classical and religious heritage to be saved.In his compelling and
entertaining narrative, Thomas Cahill tells the story of how Irish
monks and scrines copied the mauscripts of both pagan and Christian
writers, including Homer and Aristotle, while libraries on the
continent were lost forever. Bringing the past and its characters
to life, Cahill captures the sensibility of the unsung Irish who
relaunched civilisation.
