How the World Made the West: A 4,000-Year History written by Josephine Quinn - Book Review

from The Historylogy Podcast · host Shinil Subramanian Payamal

The West, the story goes, was built on the ideas and values of Ancient Greece and Rome, which disappeared from Europe during the Dark Ages and were then rediscovered by the Renaissance. But what if that isn't true?In a bold and magisterial work of immense scope, Josephine Quinn argues that the real story of the West is much bigger than this established paradigm leads us to believe. So much of our shared history has been lost, drowned out by the concept – developed in the Victorian era – of separate 'civilisations'.Order links of the book 'How the World Made the West: A 4,000-Year History' below:Amazon India:PaperbackKindleAmazon USA:HardcoverPaperbackKindleFlipkart:PaperbackAnd please don't forget to checkout Historylogy.com for latest book reviews and tidbits from the pages of history.Please feel free to our social media ID's for latest updates.
