Product Description

内容説明

This practical and knowledgeable guidebook deals comprehensively with the stone circles of Britain and Ireland and with the cromlechs and megalithic "horseshoes" of Brittany. This new edition includes a section on "Druidical" circles, romantic creations of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.
"This book is not only an elegant and practical guide, it is also the best single-volume study of this extraordinary phenomenon, embracing 500 monuments from Shetland to Brittany. . . . Confident, erudite, pleasurable, this volume can be recommended as travel guide, archaeology, literature, and sheer good company."—Ian Sheperd, British Archaeology
"This is a wonderful book and is a must for anyone remotely interested in things megalithic."—Paul Walsh, Archaeology Ireland


Book Description

This is the long awaited and substantially revised edition of Burl's first and highly acclaimed book for Yale, The Stone Circles of the British Isles,( 1976 cloth sales 8400, pb 1979 30* sales 10,000.) It comprises a complete and detailed overview of the prehistoric stone circles of Britain and Ireland and also, for the first time, their French counterparts, the cromlechs of Brittany. Taking into account the crucial research and discoveries which have taken place over the last twenty years, Burl reassesses amongst others the haunting circle at Callanish in Scotland as well as the world-famous Stonehenge, calling into question its dates, phases, astronomy, builders and above all its purpose.

5.0 out of 5 stars ストーンサークルを実際に見に行きたい人必携の書！, 2001/1/15
By A Customer
このレビューの引用元: A Guide to the Stone Circles of Britain, Ireland and Brittany (ペーパーバック)
英国に多数点在するミステリアスな遺跡、ストーンサークル（以下SC）。この本は、SCを実際に見に行く人のためのガイドブックである。州ごとにSCの場所、簡単な行き方、サークルの形状や石の数を紹介。SCの保存状態などにより重要度が５段階にランクづけされているので、旅行中時間のない人は、重要度の高いものだけ見物する、という使い方もできる。とにかく、SCに興味があって、現地に見に行きたいと考える人ならば必携の書。ただ、写真や地図は少なめ。

3.0 out of 5 stars 別の本のほうをおすすめします, 2003/7/21
By しろしろ (奈良県　斑鳩町) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
このレビューの引用元: A Guide to the Stone Circles of Britain, Ireland and Brittany (ペーパーバック)
この本にはストーンサークルの緯度・経度が出ていますが，あらかじめ別に詳細な道路地図が必要です。また，サークルの写真がほとんど無いので，サークルについて知るには別の書物にあたる必要があります。イギリス人のストーンサークル好きが使うには良いかも知れませんが，旅行でレンタカーでまわろうという日本人には使いづらいガイドです。もしサークルツアーを計画されているなら，A Guide to Ancient Sites in Britainのほうをお勧めします。詳細はそちらのレビューをご覧ください。
