Đà Nẵng/PhanBook, 2019Description: 858 tr. : ảnh, bản đồ ; 24 cm.ISBN: 9786048442224.Subject(s): World history | Trade routes -- History | East and West -- History | Imperialism -- History | Culture conflict -- History | Acculturation -- History | Thương mại -- Lịch sử -- Đông - Tây | Con đường tơ lụa -- Lịch sửDDC classification: 909 Scope and content: "Our world was made on and by the Silk Roads. For millennia it was here that East and West encountered each other through trade and conquest, leading to the spread of ideas and cultures, the birth of the world's great religions, the appetites for foreign goods that drove economies and the growth of nations. From the first cities in Mesopotamia to the growth of Greece and Rome to the depredations by the Mongols and the Black Death to the Great Game and the fall of Communism, the fate of the West has always been inextricably linked to the East. The Silk Roads vividly captures the importance of the networks that crisscrossed the spine of Asia and linked the Atlantic with the Pacific, the Mediterranean with India, America with the Persian Gulf. By way of events as disparate as the American Revolution and the horrific world wars of the twentieth century, Peter Frankopan realigns the world, orientating us eastwards, and illuminating how even the rise of the West 500 years ago resulted from its efforts to gain access to and control these Eurasian trading networks. In an increasingly globalized planet, where current events in Asia and the Middle East dominate the world's attention, this magnificent work of history is very much a work of our times"--Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
