About this title

Synopsis

The West: Encounters & Transformations takes a new approach to telling the story of Western Civilization. Rather than looking at Western Civilization only as the history of Europe from ancient times to the present, this groundbreaking book examines the changing nature of the West—how the definition of the West has evolved and transformed throughout history.

The text presents a balanced treatment of political, social, religious, and cultural history and emphasizes the ever-shifting boundaries of the geographic and cultural realm of the West. Overview of Western Civilization. Readers interested in the history and development of Western Civilization.

From the Back Cover

The West: Encounters and Transformations, Second Edition, Volume I

Brian Levack

With 32 additional maps, The West: Encounters and Transformations, Second Edition, Atlas Edition, helps students with geography, one of the most difficult aspects of Western Civilization courses for many. Four-color and outline maps accompanied by review questions call on students to identify important geographical areas and think critically about the connection between geography and historical events. The maps are on perforated pages and are organized by chapter so that they can be easily assigned and collected.

Here is a sample of the maps included:

Greece and Greek Colonies of the World, ca. 431 BCE

The Career of Julius Caesar

The Expansion of Islam in the 7th and 8th Centuries

The Expansion of the Ottoman Empire

Trade Routes to Asia

Europe under Absolute Monarchy, 1715

A complete listing of the maps appears at the front of this book.
