NATIONAL BESTSELLER • “Exciting and provocative . . . A tour de force of a book that begs to be seen as well as to be read.”—The Washington Post Book World World renowned scientist Carl Sagan and acclaimed author Ann Druyan have written a Roots for the human species, a lucid and riveting account of how humans got to be the way we are. Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is a thrilling saga that starts with the origin of the Earth. It shows with humor and drama that many of our key traits—self-awareness, technology, family ties, submission to authority, hatred for those a little different from ourselves, reason, and ethics—are rooted in the deep past, and illuminated by our kinship with other animals. Sagan and Druyan conduct a breathtaking journey through space and time, zeroing in on critical turning points in evolutionary history, and tracing the origins of sex, altruism, violence, rape, and dominance. Their book culminates in a stunningly original examination of the connection between primate and human traits. Astonishing in its scope, brilliant in its insights, and an absolutely compelling read, Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is a triumph of popular science.

Dalam buku ini, Carl Sagan dan Ann Druyan menulis mengenai bagaimana manusia menjadi sebagaimana adanya sekarang. Dengan humor dan drama, dan dengan memadukan pandangan filsafat dan sains, mereka menunjukkan bahwa banyak ciri penting kita—kesadaran diri, teknologi, ikatan keluarga, ketundukan kepada otoritas, kebencian terhadap yang agak berbeda dari kita, penguasaan wilayah, nalar, dan etika—berakar di asal-usul kita pada masa lalu, dan menunjukkan kekerabatan kita dengan hewan lain. Semua itu merupakan unsur strategi bertahan hidup yang lazim di banyak spesies, tapi sebagiannya dapat menjadi sumber masalah di masyarakat manusia. Sagan dan Druyan percaya pemecahan masalahnya bersifat global tapi optimis umat manusia mampu mencapai solusi itu.

Released in 1965, Sergei Paradjanov's Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is a landmark of Soviet-era cinema--yet, because its emphasis on folklore and mysticism in traditional Carpathian Hutsul culture broke with Soviet realism, it caused Paradjanov to be blacklisted soon after its release. This book is the first full-length companion to the film. In addition to a synopsis of the plot and a close analysis of the many levels of symbolism in the film, it offers a history of the film's legendarily troubled production process (which included Paradjanov challenging a cinematographer to a duel). The book closes with an account of the film's reception by critics, ordinary viewers, and Soviet officials, and the numerous controversies that have kept it a subject of heated debate for decades. An essential companion to a fascinating, complicated work of cinema art, this book will be invaluable to students, scholars, and regular film buffs alike.
