Encounters between separate societies or civilizations have resulted in the spread of major religions, vast migrations, scientific breakthroughs, the dissemination of powerful political notions, and many other transformations. This unique book brings to life key episodes of cultural contact in world history, from the beginnings of civilization to the present. Through a combination of vivid case studies and imaginative color maps, award-winning history professor Peter Stearns shows how we can better understand world history by examining what happens when culture meets culture. One culture's new contact with another can lead to assimilation, rejection, or--most often--a merging of elements from both cultures. Stearns focuses on fourteen important historical examples of intercultural exchange from around the globe. He considers:? the spread of major religions, such as Buddhism and Islam? voluntary and forced migrations, such as the Jewish and African diasporas? the dissemination of modern forces, including nationalism and Marxism? the impact of European colonial rule on gender relations in India and in Africa? recent international diffusion of consumer culture? and much more For each example, original maps reveal geographic patterns and provide a clear sense of the impact of that particular meeting of cultures. 606 $aCivilization$xHistory 606 $aAcculturation$xHistory 615 0$aCivilization$xHistory 615 0$aAcculturation$xHistory 676 $a909 700 $aStearns$b Peter N.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0183190 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451799703321 996 $aCultures in motion$954431 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01955nam0 22003371i 450 001 UON00013604 005 20231205101944.247 100 $a20020107d1979 |0itac50 ba 101 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $a|||| 1|||| 200 1 $aProtostoria degli stati turanici$eAspetti dell'evoluzione urbana e forme d'insediamento nel popolamento dell'Asia Centrale nell'Età del Bronzo (2500-1000 a.C.) alla luce dei dati archeologici$fRaffaele Biscione, Maurizio Tosi 210 $aNapoli$cI.U.O.$d1979 215 $a90 p., 3 c. di tav.$d23 cm 311 $a39 (1979)$9UON00005442 422 0$1001UON00005442$12001 $aAnnali$fIstituto Universitario Orientale di Napoli$1207 $aNs. vol. 1 (1940)-vol. 40 (1980)$1210 $aRoma$cEdizioni Universitarie ; Napoli$cIUO$d1940-1980$1215 $a40 v.$d27 cm$1300 $aAnnuale; trimestrale dal 1967. - Dal n. 4 1974 con supplementi.$vSUPPL. 20 39 (1979) 606 $aASIA CENTRALE$xPreistoria$3UONC012957$2FI 620 $aIT$dNapoli$3UONL000012 676 $a939.6$cASIA CENTRALE - Storia antica$v21 686 $aAC X$cASIA CENTRALE - ARCHEOLOGIA (ISLAMICA E PREISLAMICA)$2A 686 $aPER$cPERIODICI$2A 700 1$aBISCIONE$bRaffaele$3UONV000799$0640192 701 1$aTosi$bMaurizio$3UONV003421$00 712 $aIstituto Orientale di Napoli$3UONV257240$4650 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20250711$gRICA 912 $aUON00013604 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI 53 Suppl. 020 $eSI AA 15778 7 Suppl. 020 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI A Per 52 1979 (39) SUPPL. 20 $eSI SA 17336 7 SUPPL. 20 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI AC X 052 $eSI SA 54827 7 052 996 $aProtostoria degli stati turanici$91180073 997 $aUNIOR
