L’Eurasie autour de l’an 1000
Cultures, religions et sociétés d'un monde en développement
Edited by D. Barthélemy Edited by F. Grenet Edited by C. Morrisson
This book considers documented connections and raises comparisons among Eurasian societies around the year 1000; using a global frame, it aims to sketch their distinctive characteristics. Scholars of Japan, China, the steppe regions, India, and the Islamic world, Byzantium, and Western Europe concur that a remarkable diversification of different cultures accompanied demographic and economic growth worldwide. Their sketches of various Eurasian “worlds” suggest a meaningful approach to both world and global History. Some factors, like climate change, fostered interaction; others, like the invasions of nomadic peoples, checked interaction less than previously believed. The authors also demonstrate how trade, exchange transactions, and universalist religions contributed to greater interaction.
