Krátky popis
The Goths are truly a 'lost civilization'. Sweeping down from the
north, ancient Gothic tribes sacked the imperial city of Rome and
set in motion the decline and fall of the western Roman Empire.
Ostrogothic and Visigothic kings ruled over Italy and Spain,
dominating early medieval Europe. Yet the last Gothic kingdom fell
more than a thousand years ago, and the Goths disappeared as an
independent people. Over the centuries that followed, the vanished
Goths were remembered both as barbaric destroyers and as heroic
champions of liberty. This engaging history brings together the
interwoven stories of the original Goths and the diverse Gothic
legacy: a legacy that continues to shape our modern world. From the
ancient migrations to contemporary Goth culture, through debates
over democratic freedom and European nationalism and across the
work of writers from Shakespeare to Bram Stoker, David M. Gwynn
explores the ever-widening gulf between the Goths of history and
the Goths of popular imagination. Historians, students of
architecture and literature and general readers alike will learn
something new from The Goths.
