Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A fascinating journey through time and across Europe and Central Asia, in search of the prophet Zarathustra (a.k.a. Zoroaster)perhaps the greatest religious lawgiver of the ancient worldand his vast influence.In Persia more than three thousand years ago, Zarathustra spoke of a single universal god, the battle between good and evil, the devil, heaven and hell, and an eventual end to the worldforeshadowing the core beliefs of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Moving from present to past, Paul Kriwaczek examines the effects of the prophets teachings on the spiritual and daily lives of diverse peoples. Beginning in the year 2000 with New Years festivities in Iran, he walks us back through Nietzsches nineteenthcentury interpretation of Zarathustra to the Cathars of thirteenthcentury France and the ninthcentury Bulgars; from ancient Rome to the time of Alexander the Greats destruction of the Persian Empire; and, finally, to the time of Zarathustra himself.Not only an enthralling travel book, In Search of Zarathustra is also a revelation of the importance of the prophet, and a brilliantly conceived and lucid explication of the belief systems that helped shape the European Enlightenment, the Middle Ages, the Dark Ages, and the beginning of the Christian era. It is an enthralling study of a littleexplored subject.
