Book excerpt: "As panoramic as it is learned, this is ancient history for our globalized world." Tom Holland, author of Dynasty and Rubicon Twenty-five-hundred years ago, civilizations around the world entered a revolutionary new era that overturned old order and laid the foundation for our world today. In the face of massive social changes across three continents, radical new forms of government emerged; mighty wars were fought over trade, religion, and ideology; and new faiths were ruthlessly employed to unify vast empires. The histories of Rome and China, Greece and India-the stories of Constantine and Confucius, Qin Shi Huangdi and Hannibal-are here revealed to be interconnected incidents in the midst of a greater drama. In Ancient Worlds, historian Michael Scott presents a gripping narrative of this unique age in human civilization, showing how diverse societies responded to similar pressures and how they influenced one another: through conquest and conversion, through trade in people, goods, and ideas. An ambitious reinvention of our grandest histories, Ancient Worlds reveals new truths about our common human heritage. "A bold and imaginative page-turner that challenges ideas about the world of antiquity." Peter Frankopan, author of The Silk Roads

Book Synopsis Ancient Greeks West and East by : G.R. Tsetskhladze
Download or read book Ancient Greeks West and East written by G.R. Tsetskhladze and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 671 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with the concept of 'West' and 'East', as held by the ancient Greeks. Cultural exchange in Archaic and Classical Greece through the establishment of Hellenic colonies around the ancient world was an important development, and always a two-way process. To achieve a proper understanding of it requires study from every angle. All 24 papers in this volume combine different types of evidence, discussing them from every perspective: they are examined not only from the point of view of the Greeks but from that of the locals. The book gives new data, as well as re-examining existing evidence and reinterpreting old theories. The book is richly illustrated.

Book Synopsis Connecting the Ancient West and East by : Hargrave J.
Download or read book Connecting the Ancient West and East written by Hargrave J. and published by . This book was released on 2022-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Connecting the ancient West and East has been the life's goal of the Georgian-born scholar Gocha Tsetskhladze since he stepped westward from the then Soviet Union in 1990 (his higher education took place in Kharkov and Moscow). This publication honours his not inconsiderable achievements, following in (and filling) the footsteps of Minns and Rostovtzeff, unremittingly for 30 years, first in Oxford, then London and Melbourne, now in Wales. Its publication occurs just short of his sixtieth birthday. Epithets applied to him have included 'king of Pontus' and 'Mr Colonisation', for his focus has been the Black Sea and Greek colonisation, unashamedly called that, of its coasts, and the exploration of Graeco-native contacts there and in the related hinterland, starting first from his native Colchis, where the Greeks learnt a thing or two from the locals: two-way exchange, not unidirectional Hellenisation. More recently, his attention turned to excavation of Pessinus in Central Anatolia. The work is divided into two volumes: the first focused primarily on the Black Sea; the second spreading its wings to other regions. Over a hundred scholars, based predominantly in Europe, North America and Australia, have contributed 85 papers and several personal reminiscences.
Book Synopsis Ancient West Asian Civilization by : Akira Tsuneki
Download or read book Ancient West Asian Civilization written by Akira Tsuneki and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-19 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores aspects of the ancient civilization in West Asia, which has had a great impact on modern human society—agriculture, metallurgy, cities, writing, regional states, and monotheism, all of which appeared first in West Asia during the tenth to first millennia BC.The editors specifically use the term "West Asia" since the "Middle East" is seen as an Eurocentric term. By using this term, the book hopes to mitigate potential bias (i.e. historical and Western) by using a pure geographical term. However, the "West Asia" region is identical to that of the narrower "Middle East," which encompasses modern Iran and Turkey from east to west and Turkey and the Arabian Peninsula from north to south.This volume assembles research from different disciplines, such as the natural sciences, archaeology and philology/linguistics, in order to tackle the question of which circumstances and processes these significant cultural phenomena occurred in West Asia. Scrutinizing subjects such as the relations between climate, geology and human activities, the origins of wheat cultivation and animal domestication, the development of metallurgy, the birth of urbanization and writing, ancient religious traditions, as well as the treatment of cultural heritage, the book undertakes a comprehensive analysis of West Asian Civilization that provided the common background to cultures in various areas of the globe, including Europe and Asia.These contributions will attempt to demonstrate a fresh vision which emphasizes the common cultural origin between Europe and West Asia, standing in opposition to the global antagonism symbolized by the theory of "Clash of Civilizations."
