具体描述
Martin Harrison traveled widely in Asia Minor from his youth onward, and he was always fascinated by the questions of how and why the great and elegant cities of classical antiquity declined, and what happened to the descendants of the people who lived in them. Over nearly forty years he returned again and again to remote Lycia, where the ruins of monasteries and churches, villages, hamlets, and towns remained largely inaccessible and unexplored. His interest eventually led him to undertake the excavation of the Phrygian city of Amorium, whose importance became greater as the classical cities declined. At its peak it was considered second only to Byzantium, until it fell to the Arab invasions.
The present study is the fruit of years of excavation and research by the author. The manuscript was largely sketched out when Martin Harrison unexpectedly passed away, and the volume has been finished and prepared for press by his long-time assistant Wendy Young, with further guidance from friends and colleagues with whom he had discussed the project.
The resulting volume explores Martin Harrison's belief that the coastal cities of Lycia declined after the fifth century C.E., and that smaller settlements (monasteries, villages, and towns) appeared in the mountains and further inland. In addition he considered that there was a demographic shift of masons and sculptors from the cities to serve these new settlements. This beautifully illustrated study provides convincing evidence from architecture, sculpture, and inscriptional sources to support this theory. It also contains a description of Amorium in Phrygia, as revealed in survey and excavation seasons from 1987 until the author's untimely death half a dozen years later. The volume includes a preface by Stephen Hill and an appendix by Michael Ballance and Charlotte Roueché on three special inscriptions from Ovacik.
The volume will be of interest to historians of the Near East and classical antiquity, to archaeologists, and to students of architectural history.
Martin Harrison was Professor of Archaeology, University of Oxford. Wendy Young was Research Assistant to the author until his death.

这本书最让我印象深刻的是它那种独特的“氛围感”。作者似乎有一种天赋，能用最简洁的文字勾勒出栩栩如生的环境，无论是阴沉的雨夜，还是喧嚣的集市，都跃然纸上。我甚至能闻到场景中散发出的气味，感受到空气中的温度。这种强烈的代入感，极大地增强了故事的可信度。在某些段落中，情感的爆发处理得极为克制，没有过分的煽情，反而因为这种收敛而显得更加震撼人心，如同平静水面下奔涌的暗流，那种力量是安静而巨大的。它成功地在感官体验和智力刺激之间找到了一个完美的平衡点，让人欲罢不能，恨不得一口气读完，却又想放慢脚步，细细品味这来之不易的沉浸感。
评分读完这部作品，我的第一感受是作者的语言功力之深厚，简直是文字的魔术师。那些精妙的比喻和排比，读起来朗朗上口，却又蕴含着深刻的哲理。故事本身的结构设计非常巧妙，多线叙事并行，看似松散，实则暗藏玄机，最终汇聚成一个令人拍案叫绝的高潮。我必须承认，有些段落我需要放慢速度，细细品味其中的韵味，生怕错过任何一个微妙的情感转折。这种对文字美感的极致追求，让阅读过程本身就成了一种享受，而非仅仅是信息的接收。它展现了文学的张力，那种能够让读者完全沉浸其中，与书中世界共呼吸的魔力，这本书无疑具备了。
评分这是一部需要沉下心来阅读的作品，它不适合碎片化的时间消磨。作者对于历史背景的考据显然下了大功夫，所有细节的铺陈都服务于整体的真实感，而非简单的背景堆砌。我特别赞赏她对“时间”这一概念的处理，过去、现在与未来的交织，不是生硬的闪回，而是巧妙地融入叙事主线，让角色的选择有了更深的历史厚重感。这种多维度的叙事手法，虽然对读者的注意力要求较高，但一旦跟上节奏，收获的将是无比丰富的阅读体验。它挑战了我们对于传统线性叙事的期待，提供了一种更接近真实人生体验的、充满回响和回音的阅读结构。这本书的价值，在于它成功地将严肃的思考融入到引人入胜的故事之中，是近来少有的佳作。
评分这本书的叙事节奏简直让人着迷，作者对人物内心世界的挖掘细致入微，仿佛能感受到他们每一次呼吸、每一次犹豫。情节的推进并非一蹴而就，而是像一条蜿蜒的河流，时而平静舒缓，时而激流险滩，紧紧抓住了读者的心弦。我尤其欣赏作者在描绘宏大场景时所展现出的那种克制而有力的笔触，既有史诗般的广阔感，又不失个体命运的细腻刻画。那些关于选择与后果的探讨，沉甸甸地压在心头，让人在合上书本后仍久久不能平复。这本书不仅仅是一个故事，它更像是一面镜子，映照出人性深处的复杂与挣扎，每一次重读都能发现新的层次和感悟，那种回味无穷的阅读体验，实在难得。
评分坦率地说，这本书的题材并不算新颖，但作者处理它的方式却令人耳目一新。她似乎避开了所有陈词滥调的窠臼，选择了一条更为艰难但更具真实性的路径来探讨主题。角色之间的对话充满了张力，充满了潜台词，你得仔细分辨那些没有说出口的话语背后的真正意图。这种高智商的拉锯战，让整个故事充满了悬念，即便你知道大致的走向，也无法预料到达终点的具体细节。我欣赏作者的勇气，敢于触碰那些复杂、灰色地带，毫不留情地揭示社会结构中的不公与矛盾，让人读后不由得深思，我们所处的现实是否也隐藏着类似的暗流涌动。
