Journey to Portugal（ISBN=9780156007139） pdf pdb 阿里云 极速 mobi caj kindle 下载

　　When Jos Saramago decided to write a book about Portugal, his

only desire was that it be unlike all other books on the subject,

and in this he has certainly succeeded. Recording the events and

observations of a journey across the length and breadth of the

country he loves dearly, Saramago brings Portugal to life as only a

writer of his brilliance can. Forfeiting the usual sources such as

tourist guides and road maps, he scours the country with the eyes

and ears of an observer fascinated by the ancient myths and history

of his people. Whether it be an inaccessible medieval fortress set

on a cliff, a wayside chapel thick with cobwebs, or a grand mansion

in the city, the extraordinary places of this land come alive.

Always meticulously attentive to those elements of ancient Portugal

that persist today, he examines the country in its current period

of rapid transition and growth. Journey to Portugal is an ode to a

country and its rich traditions.

novels, including All the Names, The Year of the Death of Ricardo

as allegories, commonly present subversive perspectives on historic

events, emphasizing the human factor rather than the officially

sanctioned story. Saramago was awarded the Nobel Prize for

literature in 1998. He founded the National Front for the Defense

of Culture (Lisbon, 1992) with among others Freitas-Magalhaes. He
