A History of Jerusalem: One City, Three Faiths

A History of Jerusalem: One City, Three Faiths

 'A History of Jerusalem should be read, not only by travellers and potential travellers in Jerusalem, but by all of us.' Stephen Tummin, Daily Telegraph Jerusalem has probably cast more of a spell over the human imagination than any other city in the world. Held by believers to contain the site where Abraham offered up Isaac, the place of the crucifixion of Christ and the rock from which the prophet Muhammed ascended to heaven, Jerusalem has been celebrated and revered for centuries by Jews, Christians and Muslims. Such is the symbolic power of this ancient city that its future status poses a major obstacle to a comprehensive regional peace in the Middle East. In this comprehensive and elegantly written work, Karen Armstrong traces the turbulent history of the city from the prehistoric era to the present day.

Armstrong Karen

Karen Armstrong was born in a Catholic family in 1944 in England. At the age of seventeen, she entered the Catholic convent in Tripton as a novice. After seven years of religious life and an unsuccessful search for enlightenment, he left the monastery. Since 1982, he has been exclusively engaged in writing.
This author's brilliant oeuvre includes over twenty outstanding books, which justifiably places her among the top authors writing about religion and religiosity. She has written extensive analytical and comparative works on Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and other Eastern religious traditions.

 'A History of Jerusalem should be read, not only by travellers and potential travellers in Jerusalem, but by all of us.' Stephen Tummin, Daily Telegraph

Jerusalem has probably cast more of a spell over the human imagination than any other city in the world.

Held by believers to contain the site where Abraham offered up Isaac, the place of the crucifixion of Christ and the rock from which the prophet Muhammed ascended to heaven, Jerusalem has been celebrated and revered for centuries by Jews, Christians and Muslims. Such is the symbolic power of this ancient city that its future status poses a major obstacle to a comprehensive regional peace in the Middle East.

In this comprehensive and elegantly written work, Karen Armstrong traces the turbulent history of the city from the prehistoric era to the present day.
