Dans ce tome captivant, Élie Faure explore l'art médiéval comme une explosion de vie spirituelle et sensuelle, née du choc entre religions éthiques et instincts humains. Du panthéisme indien aux temples khmers, de la sérénité chinoise au dynamisme japonais, en passant par les mosaïques byzantines, les arabesques islamiques et les cathédrales gothiques françaises, il révèle comment l'art a transcendé dogmes et souffrances pour célébrer l'harmonie universelle.

L'histoire de la Palestine, berceau des trois monothéismes, remonte à celle de la Terre sainte mais c'est la création de l'État d'Israël en 1948 qui l'a mise pour longtemps sous les feux de l'actualité. Elias Sanbar, dans cette version mise à jour, y remet les événements récents dans la continuité d'une histoire – depuis le mandat britannique à partir de 1917 jusqu'aux suites des Accords d'Oslo en 1993, dont l'auteur fut l'un des négociateurs – que tant de commentaires ont souvent faussée ou étouffée. La Palestine, c'est l'histoire d'un pays que les Palestiniens ont emporté dans leur exil.

At 8 a.m. on February 3, 1975, Eli Black leapt to his death from the 44th floor of Manhattan's Pan Am building.
