Product Information

This innovative book examines cross-cultural encounters before 1492, focusing in particular on the major cross-cultural influences that transformed Asia and Europe during this period: the ancient silk roads that linked China with the Roman Empire, the spread of the world religions, and the Mongol Empire of the thirteenth century. The author's goal throughout the work is to examine the conditions--political, social, economic, or cultural--that enable one culture to influence, mix with, or suppress another. On the basis of its global analysis, the book identifies several distinctive pattern of conversion, conflict, and compromise that emerged from cross-cultural encounters. In doing so, it elucidates that larger historical context of encounters between Europeans and other peoples in modern times. Old World Encounters is ideal for students of world geography, religion, and civilizations.

"Useful to introduce students to cross-cultural contacts."--Lydia M. Garner, Southwest Texas State University, "An important book, one that few world civilizations teachers should bewithout, and one to build a course around."--Robert S. Babcock, HastingsCollege, "Looks like a wonderful global study of a process fundamental to world history. Will certainly enrich my course significantly."--Stephen Morillo, Wabash College, "Very good indeed....Bentley's book brings together lots of materialsknown only to specialists, and does so in an attractive way....The strength ofthe work is its devotion to a global approach to understanding culturalinterchanges."--Edmund Burke III, University of California, Santa Cruz, "A first-rate piece of work. Every student of early global history shouldread this book."--A.J. Andrea, University of Vermont, "...themes are treated by the author with skill, clarity, and, above all, brevity....Old World Encounters is a good introductory textbook for general courses on world history or Asian history."--The International History Review, "An outstanding example of cross-cultural methodology that adds relevance to the usually Eurocentric World History course. Provides a rare glimpse at the ways in which European civilization was enriched by contact with the Middle East, Asia and Africa."--Prof. James A. Brown, TougalooCollege, "This is an important theme often neglected in survey courses."--WilliamF. Lye, Utah State University, "A marvelous survey of cross-cultural networks in Afro-Eurasia."--Peter Arnade, California State University at San Marcos, "A marvelous survey of cross-cultural networks in Afro-Eurasia."--PeterArnade, California State University at San Marcos, "Will be very useful to my teaching of medieval trade and travel, and encounters between East and West."--Olivia Constable, Notre Dame University, "Eloquently shows trade and religion as the binding forces among Eurasiancivilizations in the pre-1500 era.

The book is a fine supplement in our world civilization program."--Steven F. Sage, Middle Tennessee State University, "Excellent! Very interesting parallel reading for [an] undergraduate course in medieval history."--Paul R. Waibel, Belhaven College, "[A]n excellent survey of a central subject....It is eminently suitable for...classroom use. My international affairs graduate students, who have only a modest background in history, grasped its messages easily and rated it very highly both for enjoyment and for intellectual provocation. Ifound it a smooth read, finely proportioned, and a most useful survey of its subject."--J.R. McNeill (Georgetown University) in Journal of World History

  • A Historical overview of early encounters

    There's a lot of historical details such as dates and names that are expressed in this book. This book compared seperate locations and described their similarities and differences in such an interesting way. I learned more about the past history besides the European outlook that gave me a different perspective and understanding on the basis of other cultures and religions on other parts of the world. It is a good book, simply filled with great information!
