"The Silk Road cut across borders - and broke down the borders in our minds," says Dr Sam Willis. In a new three-part series for BBC Four, the historian and writer traces the story of the most famous trade route in history. This was the Silk Road which ran from China’s ancient capital Xian through the mythical cities of Central Asia and Persia, until it reached the bazaars of Istanbul and the markets of Venice. It was in Venice and other Italian cities that the ideas, inventions and products that trickled down the Silk Road ignited. They formed - in part - a movement which we call ‘the Renaissance’ - an explosion of new thinking, new art and new inventions. Covering a distance of 5 - 000 - miles and crossing some of the most dramatic landscapes on the planet, Dr Sam Willis reveals how the Silk Road was more than a market place: it was the world's first transcontinental superhighway, along which people with new ideas, new cultures and new religions made exchanges that shaped the development of humanity.

故事产生在法国,这是一个有着优秀骑术传统的平易近族。皮艾尔-杜兰德是法国青年队的一名阻碍马术选手,在没碰到Jappeloup之前,他在种种竞赛中表示平平,不人留神过他。Jappeloup是一匹Selle Francais种的黑公马,这种马素以膂力充分!暴发力强著称,是法国黑骑士马术团的特选用马,曾作为马队团的豪杰马驯养。惋惜的是,因为Jappeloup身体矮小,只有15掌半,常常被人嘲笑为拉车马。 杜兰德在初次看到Jappeloup的时间,也将信将疑,估计着它的才能。经由一段时光的"磨合"之后,杜兰德对这匹马的精彩表示觉得异常满足,确信能经由过程它转变本人的终生。在1982夺得法国锦标赛的冠军之后,Jappeloup又接连在一系各国际大赛中得胜。1988年,汉城奥运会,Jappeloup跟杜兰德代表法国加入决赛,在浩繁妙手跟名马中怀才不遇,为故国博得一块奥运金牌。四年之后,加入完巴黎国际阻碍赛,在退役典礼上,希拉克总理亲身出马对这匹大胆的骏马大加赞美。现在后当前,杜兰德再也不涌当初国际马术赛场上,用他本人的话讲："法国只有一匹Jappeloup。"
