英文 | 2026年10月27日 | ISBN: 0593320360 | 416页 | True EPUB | 42 MB
一段令人叹为观止的考古之旅，揭示了音乐与声音在塑造人类文明过程中所扮演的鲜为人知的角色。
如果你能通过深埋在地下的铜钟听到世界历史呢？或者一个精美、古老的陶土花盆？或者是一根又长又空心的猛犸象牙？
在音轨中，格雷姆·劳森 (Graeme Lawson) 通过六十个音乐对象以及发现它们的考古挖掘的激动人心的叙述来探索我们丰富而古老的音乐制作历史。我们偶然发现了一个在19世纪美国战场上发现的德国口琴，一个1,300岁的秘鲁烧瓶，设计得像鸟一样鸣叫，石器时代的长笛在法国西南部一个洞穴的不太可能的深处钙化-一直在发掘曾经与他们一起创作音乐和意义的人们的充满活力的世界。
作为世界上最重要的考古学家之一，劳森不遗余力地引领着读者从今天开始一直到时间的黎明，揭示了音乐作为一种重要媒介的作用，通过它我们纪念我们的历史，形成我们的身份，并传达我们对未来的梦想。声轨的范围广阔，充满了生动活泼，令人难忘的见解，可以倾听闻所未闻的过去，为音乐作为一种古老而神奇的力量提供了令人振奋的新肖像。

Sound Tracks An Archaeological Journey Through Our Musical Past
English | October 27th, 2026 | ISBN: 0593320360 | 416 pages | True EPUB | 42 MB
A breathtaking archaeological journey that illuminates the unsung role of music and sound in shaping human civilization
What if you could hear the history of the world through a bronze bell buried deep in the ground? Or a fine, old terra-cotta pot? Or a long, hollow strip of a mammoth’s tusk?
In Sound Tracks, Graeme Lawson explores our rich and ancient history of music-making through sixty musical objects and the thrilling accounts of the archaeological digs in which they were discovered. We stumble upon a German harmonica found on a 19th century American battlefield, a 1,300-year-old Peruvian flask designed to warble like a bird, a Stone Age flute calcified within the unlikely depths of a cave in Southwestern France—all the while unearthing the vibrant worlds of the people that once made music and meaning with them.
One of the world’s foremost archaeologists, Lawson leaves no stone unturned, ushering the reader from the present day all the way back to the dawn of time, revealing music’s role as an essential medium through which we commemorate our histories, form our identities, and communicate our dreams for the future. Expansive in its scope and brimming with lively, unforgettable insights, Sound Tracks lends an ear to an unheard past, offering an exhilarating new portrait of music as an ancient and magical force.
