Global Themes in World History Since 1500
Author: Elizabeth Sundermann
Publisher: Cognella Academic Publishing
ISBN: 9781516577040
Category :
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
Global Themes in World History since 1500 provides students with a concise, thematic approach to world history with emphasis on topics and themes representative of global patterns across time. Students are challenged to embrace the idea that history, while based on primary source evidence, is also based on historians' interpretations of that evidence, and that historiography changes through time and place. The book addresses diverse topics and research areas, including the history of Africa, the African diaspora, world military history, modern Europe, the Middle East, empires and imperialism, food history, cultural history, and more. Each chapter explores key themes that reflect important transitions in world history research and writing: geography and environment; material culture; science and technology; gender and sexuality; and war, peace, and diplomacy. Throughout, students are provided with primary sources, discussion questions, images, timelines, glossary terms, and suggested additional readings and media to deepen the learning experience. An engaging, diverse, and accessible text, Global Themes in World History since 1500 is well suited to undergraduate courses in modern world history.

A History of the World in 100 Objects
Author: Neil MacGregor
Publisher: Penguin UK
ISBN: 0141966831
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 564
Book Description
This book takes a dramatically original approach to the history of humanity, using objects which previous civilisations have left behind them, often accidentally, as prisms through which we can explore past worlds and the lives of the men and women who lived in them. The book's range is enormous. It begins with one of the earliest surviving objects made by human hands, a chopping tool from the Olduvai gorge in Africa, and ends with an object from the 21st century which represents the world we live in today. Neil MacGregor's aim is not simply to describe these remarkable things, but to show us their significance - how a stone pillar tells us about a great Indian emperor preaching tolerance to his people, how Spanish pieces of eight tell us about the beginning of a global currency or how an early Victorian tea-set tells us about the impact of empire. Each chapter immerses the reader in a past civilisation accompanied by an exceptionally well-informed guide. Seen through this lens, history is a kaleidoscope - shifting, interconnected, constantly surprising, and shaping our world today in ways that most of us have never imagined. An intellectual and visual feast, it is one of the most engrossing and unusual history books published in years.
