Aspects of Western Civilization: Problems and Sources in History
Book details
Summary
Description
The first of a two-volume chronologically arranged compilation of primary and some secondary sources in Western Civilization. Organized around eight major themes to provide direction and cohesion to the volume while allowing for originality of thought in both written and oral analysis. Readers are presented with basic questions regarding historical development, human nature, moral action and practical necessity while incorporating a wide variety of political, social, economic, religious, intellectual and scientific issues. The readings present history as a vehicle for better understanding in the present rather than a stagnant observation of past societies. The volume addresses the earliest civilizations, the Greek world, the Roman world, the Medieval world and transitions to the modern world. For those interested in an analysis of fundamental historical questions and concerns.
