Blood and Gold: The Making of Spain with Simon Sebag Montefiore
在BBC纪录片《鲜血与黄金—铸就西班牙 Blood And Gold The Making Of Spain 2015》中，《耶路撒冷三千年》作者西蒙·蒙蒂菲奥里以历史学家和旅游者的身份，带你饱览西班牙的美景与之两千年的历史。 他将遍访偏僻之暗角、未知之伕事、隐没之秘闻、立国之伟人，从异教、伊斯兰教到天主教，从独裁专制到今日的民主制度。鲜血与黄金、美丽和死亡、迫害与宽容，这便是铸就西班牙的故事。
In the first episode, Simon explores Spain's early years, its emergence as the battleground of empires and its golden age under the Cordoba Caliphate.
Simon uncovers the truth about Spain's hero El Cid. He also investigates the horror of the Spanish Inquisition and in the process discovers an unsettling story about one of his own ancestors.
Simon explores Spain's golden age under Philip II through to the Spanish Civil War and dictatorship under Franco, from which Spain has emerged as a modern democratic monarchy.
