Download or read book The Shortest History of Europe How Conquest Culture and Religion Forged a Continent A Retelling for Our Times Shortest History written by James Hirst and published by The Experiment, LLC. This book was released on 2022-11-08 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uncover the decisive moments that shaped a world-changing continent. The Shortest History books deliver thousands of years of history in one riveting, fast-paced read. Celebrated historian John Hirst draws from his own lectures to deliver this ultra-accessible master class on the making of modern Europe, from Ancient Greece through World War II. With over 600,000 copies sold worldwide, this brief history is a global sensation propelled by a thesis of astonishing simplicity: Just three elements—German warfare, Greek and Roman culture, and Christianity—come together to explain everything else, from the Crusades to the Industrial Revolution. Hirst’s razor-sharp grasp of cause and effect helps us see with sparkling clarity how the history of Europe—the crucible of liberal democracy—shapes the way we live today.

Download or read book Eastern Europe written by Tomek E. Jankowski and published by New Europe Books. This book was released on 2014-05-20 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eastern Europe! is a brief and concise (but informative) introduction to Eastern Europe and its myriad customs and history. When the legendary Romulus killed his brother Remus and founded the city of Rome in 753 BCE, Plovdiv -- today the second-largest city in Bulgaria -- was already thousands of years old. Indeed, London, Paris, Berlin, Vienna, Madrid, Brussels, Amsterdam are all are mere infants compared to Plovdiv. This is just one of the paradoxes that haunts and defines the New Europe, that part of Europe that was freed from Soviet bondage in 1989 which is at once both much older than the modern Atlantic-facing power centers of Western Europe while also being in some ways much younger than them. Even those knowledgeable about Western Europe often see Eastern Europe as terra incognita, with a sign on the border declaring "Here be monsters." This book is a gateway to understanding both what unites and separates Eastern Europeans from their Western brethren, and how this vital region has been shaped by, but has also left its mark on, Western Europe, Central Asia, the Middle East and North Africa. Ideal for students, businesspeople, and those who simply want to know more about where Grandma or Grandpa came from, Eastern Europe! is a user-friendly guide to a region that is all too often mischaracterized as remote, insular, and superstitious. Illustrations throughout include: 40 photos, 40 maps and 40 figures (tables, charts, etc.) From the Trade Paperback edition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The General History and State of Europe, Vol. 2 My method of studying history was calculated for my own use, and not for the public, whom I never intended to trouble with my thoughts on this subject. At length a lady, the ornament of her age and sex, whose extensive genius embraced every subject, had a mind to learn history along with me, though she had conceived as great a dislike to it at first as Father Mallebranche, because, like him, she had great abilities for geometry and metaphysics. "What signifies it," said she, "to a Frenchwoman like me, who live here in a rural retirement, to know that Egil succeeded King Haquin in the kingdom of Sweden or that Ottoman was the son of Ortogrul? With pleasure I have read the Greek and Roman histories; because they exhibited pictures to my mind drawn at full length, which fixed my attention. But I have not been yet able to go through any one large history of our modern nations: for I hardly see any thing in them but confusion, a multitude of trivial events, without any order or connection; a thousand battles no way decisive, and in which I did not even so much as learn the weapons they made use of to destroy one another. I therefore renounced so dry and unprofitable a study, which overloads, without improving the mind." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
