Summary

An ideal companion for students of world history, Classical Civilizations covers world history from about 1000 BCE to 300 CE, an era in which many civilizations developed unique cultural and social institutions and styles that became defining for later civilizations in the same tradition. Many of the religions and philosophical systems that we still draw on today were founded during this era. The volume also explores the formation of the first giant empires that covered not just one but multiple regions with different traditions, economic systems, and cultures.
