Sobre este artículo
I.B.Tauris, 2006-03-03. Hardcover. Very good. 6.38x1.18x9.57. Revered or reviled, Gertrude Bell was a commanding figure: scholar, linguist, archaeologist, traveler and """"Orientalist"""". Belonging to the tradition of the great British Middle East enthusiasts of the early twentieth century, she explored the Ottoman Empire during and after World War I and was (alongside T.E. Lawrence) hugely instrumental in the post-war reconfiguration of the Arab states in the Middle East. Using previously unseen sources, including Gertrude Bell's own diaries and letters, Liora Lukitz provides a deeper political and personal biography of this influential character and the tragedy, vulnerability and frustration that were key to her quest both for a British-dominated Middle East and relief from her troubled romantic life.
