LebanonPostcard presents the Book The Story of Lebanon in Pictures – Le Liban à travers les images – Nina Jidejian – Hardcover book, 338 pages, 22.5×24.5 cm, in English and French.
There exists in Lebanon today a generation of children who since the year 1975 have only experienced fear and bewilderment, bereavement and tears.
They know little of the rich cultural heritage and background of the country in which they live for security and peace have been constantly overshadowed by violence and vengeance, heartbreak and death.
This small volume is an attempt to bring to each one of them in simple words and eloquent pictures the story of Lebanon from its origin thousands of years ago to this day.
To the children of Lebanon, the generation of the future, this book is dedicated with confidence and with hope.
Lebanon is a very small country with a very long history. So long that its beginning is lost in the mists of Time. So far back that the memory of it has faded away.
Yet there are traces here and there in Lebanon left behind by early Man that allow us to look back thousands and thousands of years. These traces, however modest they may be, a stone tool, a flint arrowhead or a piece of pottery, when patiently put together like in a jigsaw puzzle, allow us to tell you the story of Lebanon in pictures today.
In French: Il existe au Liban une génération qui depuis 1975 n’a connu que la peur, l’égarement, les privations, les deuils et les larmes.
Cette jeune génération connaît mal l’histoire et les richesses du patrimoine culturel de son pays, car la violence, la vengeance, la douleur et la mort l’ont empêché de se pencher sur le passé prestigieux de sa patrie.
Le but de cet ouvrage est de mettre à la portée de chacun de ces jeunes l’histoire du Liban depuis son origine millénaire jusqu’aux temps modernes à l’aide d’explications précises et d’illustrations éloquentes par elles-mêmes.
Ce livre est dédié aux enfants du Liban, les bâtisseurs de notre avenir, avec confiance et espoir.
Le Liban est un petit pays qui possède une très longue histoire, si longue que le début se perd dans la nuit des temps, si lointaine que sa mémoire s’est estompée en traversant les siècles. Néanmoins, le sol libanais a livré des objets qui datent de plusieurs millénaires. Ces vestiges, bien que modestes (outils de pierre, pointes de flèche ou tessons de poterie), permettent de reconstituer la trame historique
du Liban, car ils forment les fragments épars d’un immense puzzle que les archéologues essaient patiemment d’assembler. L’objet de cet ouvrage est de vous présenter, à travers des illustrations, l’histoire du Liban.
