The expert author team advances a global view of the period, introducing the reader to histories and narratives beyond a European context. A new chapter called “Perspectives” has been added which defines theoretical approaches to the material and considers changes in how we interpret history.
Key Features:
Divided into chronological sections, chapters are organized by four key themes: Religion, Economics, Politics, and Society. This framework enables students to connect wider ideas and debates across 500 to 1500.
Individual chapters address current theoretical discussions, including issues around gender, migration, sustainable environments, race and intercultural religious spaces.
The authors’ combined teaching experience and subject specialties ensure an engaging and accessible overview for students of history, literature, and those undertaking general studies courses.
Full-colour maps and images illustrate chapter content and support understanding.
As a result, this text is essential reading for all those interested in learning more about the histories and cultures of the period, as well as their relevance to our own contemporary experiences and perspectives.
This textbook is supported by a companion website providing core resources for students and lecturers.
