两个世界、两种文化的碰撞。欧洲人对异质的信仰观察和记录。
评分wilfred走进寂静的沙漠,找到了心灵归宿。在回英国时感到自己被驱逐了出真正的归宿。
评分Thesiger不畏自然艰险、政治乱局和部落仇杀,两次穿越阿拉伯半岛南部的空白之地,沙漠游民称之为“Sands”的贫瘠荒漠,体验TE劳伦斯笔下“a death in life”的贝都因生活,寻求把物质欲望降至最低的精神自由。他对考古和自然景观没有兴趣,读他的行记会觉得缺乏诗意和想象,甚至可以批评他的旅行是建立在有钱有闲有关系的基础之上,但他毕竟在石油经济彻底改变阿拉伯世界的前夕,记录下南贝都因人的生活的方方面面以及他们富有感染力的单纯、坚韧和幽默感,我相信他的敬意和热爱都是真诚的。他和贝都因旅伴之间的思维差异常常产生喜剧效果,偶尔也会是危险的,各式小插曲使他的叙述读起来一点都不枯燥,也让人唏嘘这样的生活和旅行方式都业已消亡。配合PittRivers的线上Thesiger摄影图库阅读效果更佳。

Sir Wilfred Patrick Thesiger (1910–2003) was a British travel writer born in Addis Ababa in Abyssinia (now Ethiopia). Thesiger is best known for two travel books: Arabian Sands (1959), which recounts his travels in the Empty Quarter of Arabia between 1945 and 1950 and describes the vanishing way of life of the Bedouins, and The Marsh Arabs (1964), an account of the traditional peoples who lived in the marshlands of southern Iraq.
Arabian Sands is Wilfred Thesiger's record of his extraordinary journey through the parched "Empty Quarter" of Arabia. Educated at Eton and Oxford, Thesiger was repulsed by the softness and rigidity of Western life-"the machines, the calling cards, the meticulously aligned streets." In the spirit of T. E. Lawrence, he set out to explore the deserts of Arabia, traveling among peoples who had never seen a European and considered it their duty to kill Christian infidels. His now-classic account is invaluable to understanding the modern Middle East.
