History of the Ancient World. Antiquity
39.99 €
The textbook for higher education institutions, "History of the Ancient World. Antiquity," was written by Alexander Iosifovich Nemirovsky (1919–2007), Doctor of Historical Sciences, a prominent Russian historian of Classical Antiquity and Etruscan culture, teacher, novelist, poet, and translator, and the author of over fifty books, including several authoritative textbooks, scholarly monographs, and popular historical novels.
This textbook combines the traditionally separate histories of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome, allowing for an understanding of the phenomena and patterns of the historical process as a whole and, crucially, for introducing other Mediterranean peoples beyond the Greeks and Romans into the orbit of classical civilization. Furthermore, the destinies of Greece and Rome naturally intertwined after they became part of a single Mediterranean empire, and from the 2nd century BC, a separate presentation of the histories of the Mediterranean East and West simply became inappropriate. A. I. Nemirovsky's clear achievement lies in synchronizing the developmental processes, political, and cultural phenomena of the Ancient World. The textbook clearly demonstrates, in its essential unity, the profound interaction and interpenetration of historical phenomena. At the same time, the book provides an opportunity to better understand Antiquity in its concrete and everyday life.
This innovative textbook is intended for undergraduate and graduate students not only in history but also in other humanities departments, as well as for anyone interested in the history and culture of the ancient world.
