Description

Zypern-das ist Weltgeschichte als Inselgeschichte. Aufgrund ihrer strategischen Lage war die Insel stets Objekt der Begierde fremder Machte. Alle waren hier: Phonizier, Griechen, Romer, Byzantiner, Kreutzritter, Venezianer, Genuesen, Osmanen, Briten. Und alle haben Spuren hinterlassen: Die eindrucksvollsten Denmaler – nach den romischen und fruhbyzantinischen Ruinen von Salamis – stammen aus frankischer und venezianischer Zeit, wie die Abtei von Bellapais, der befestigte Hafen von Kyrenia und die prachtigen Kathedralen von Nikosia und Famagusta (wo Shakespeares Othello spielt). Leicht vergisst man, dass nach dem Kollaps der Kreuzzuge die als Geburtsort der Aphrodite geltende Insel die Bastion der Christenheit in einem Meer von Muslimen war, dass Cicero hier war, Richard Lowenherz, Leonardo da Vinci und Arthur Rimbaud. Drei Jahre hat Joachim Sartorius auf Zypern gelebtjetzt kehrt er dorthin zuruck, zu den Kulturen und Legenden, zu Farben und Licht der Levante. Er spurt den vielen historischen und seelischen Sedimenten nach, der bewegten Geschichte der Insel, iher Teilung nach der turkischen Invasion im Jahre 1974 und der schwierigen  aktuellen Situation. Und doch ist dieses Buch nicht das eines Historikers oder Politologen, sondern das eines Dichters, der an der Hand guter Freunde – Inselgriechen wie Inselturken – Zypern zu verstehen sucht.
