Key themes, such as communication, trade, order, slavery, religion, war, identity, modernity, norms and ecology, are linked to specific world regions, which tell a story about how local ideas and individual contacts developed, started to overlap and became globally understood and used by ever larger groups of people. These themes are brought to life by a diverse set of key primary sources, such as a book, a letter, a medal, a temple and an epic, to showcase how historians have used sources to tell these stories and conduct debates. The book provides an introductory resource into the study of history and includes detailed suggestions for further study.HISTORY / GeneralbisacshHistory of Communication, Silk Roads, Political Order, Slavery and Race, History and Religion, War, Identity, Modernity, Human Rights, Ecology.HISTORY / General.909Boogert Jochem van den, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDa Via Elisa, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDuyvesteyn Isabelle, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDuyvesteyn Isabelle, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGriffiths Richard T., ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbLing Gina van, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbNae Judith, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbRee Arnout van, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbScarborough Isaac, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbSchmidli Mike, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbShaev Brian, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbSteele Helen, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbTol Joris van den, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbWal Anne Marieke van der, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbWal Anne Marieke, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK996500666103316World History for International Studies2912421UNISA
