In Sardinia: An Unexpected Journey in Italy with Jeff Biggers
Manage episode 364083221 series 2982782
“Far from a fleeting moment in history, or a stack of stones, the open museum of Sardinia recounted a story of foundations; a story of birth and rebirth, of endurance and resilience, and re-use, and a story of rituals and cross cultural ways that had made the island the staging ground of civilizations that not only shaped its own peoples, but the rest of the Mediterranean” - Jeff Biggers, In Sardinia: An Unexpected Journey
Welcome to Episode #76,
Today, I have a wonderful conversation with Jeff Biggers - Historian, Journalist, Author and Travel Writer about his new book: In Sardinia An Unexpected Journey In Italy.
This is a rich and expensive conversation not only about the convoluted history of Sardinia and the culture, but illuminates a part of Italy that many are yet to discover…..Biggers excavates stone by stone, poet by poet and layer by layer and gives us a fresh perspective on the island and the Sardinian culture, and what’s more he is a wonderful storyteller.
In the book and conversation you will discover:
The Nuragic Civilisation, Neolithic Sites, The Blue Zones, Sardinian Food and Wine, the Artists and Writers (described as an island of narration) and much more....
