It was a thrift store selection and the title did not prepare me for what was inside. What a great way to approach history. How many people were really on the earth when, what they ate, how they dealt with mediums of exchange. I dipped back into it a couple of months later..the same impression.What if history were taught from this perspective.Can't wait to read the additional volumes. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de uitgeversreeks(en)
This work is concerned with the quest for progress in daily life throughout the world between the fifteenth and eighteenth centuries. Professor Braudel studies the demographic expansion that outstripped the production of goods, and the many other factors that brought about the low subsistence level of the majority of people in contrast with the luxurious living standards of the wealthy and privileged few; the effects of famine and plague; the gradual expansion of the towns in a basically agricultural economy. In this first of a two-volume work deals with population; staple diets throughout the world; housing and clothes; the spread of technology in particular, sources of power; communications; early economies and kinds of money; towns in East and West. The second volume will deal with the rise and expansion of capitalism. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
