Ce livre est la première monographie qui tente de présenter l’œuvre de Ryszard Kapuścinski dans toute sa diversité intrinsèque (journalisme d’opinion, correspondances de presse, reportages, récits, notes essayistiques, poésie, photographie) et dans toute sa durée, soit plus de cinquante ans　: des premiers poèmes au volume posthume Lapidarium VI. Les auteurs considèrent Kapuścinski avant tout comme un écrivain qui s’est incarné dans la figure d’un journaliste-voyageur et qui, grâce à son talent, a transformé le reportage en outil permettant de formuler des significations universelles tout en préservant sa sensibilité de journaliste aux changements et aux besoins du monde. Le livre propose des interprétations théoriques littéraires des principaux ouvrages de Kapuścinski, mais les auteurs étudient également avec attention le destin personnel de l’écrivain qui était souvent le héros de ses propres textes. La biographie a été traduite en espagnol et en italien.

From the stony desolation of Jordan's desert, it is but a step through a doorway into the bath house of the Qusayr 'Amra hunting lodge. Inside, multicolored frescoes depict scenes from courtly life and the hunt, along with musicians, dancing girls, and naked bathing women. The traveler is transported to the luxurious and erotic world of a mid-eighth-century Muslim Arab prince. For scholars, though, Qusayr 'Amra, probably painted in the 730s or' 740s, h'as proved a mirage, its concreteness dissolved by doubts about date, patron, and meaning. This is the first book-length contextualization of the mysterious monument through a compelling analysis of its iconography and of the literary sources for the Umayyad period. It illuminates not only the way of life of the early Muslim elite but also the long afterglow of late antique Syria.
