Synopsis

This chronologically organized introduction to the Western Humanities (art, music, history, literature, and drama) establishes the historical context of each era before the arts are discussed. More than 600 illustrations appear throughout the text, and Personal Perspectives boxes bring to life the issues and events of the day.

The Western Humanities is available in a complete single text or in two volumes. Volume I covers prehistory through the Renaissance; Volume II covers the Renaissance to the Present.
