Expires in:In "The Silk Roads: A New History of the World", Peter Frankopan compels us to reevaluate the axes of global power and influence, shifting our gaze from the West to the East - to the vibrant superhighways of trade and ideas known as the Silk Roads. Once linking China with the Mediterranean, these ancient trade routes ushered in an era of unprecedented cultural, economic, and intellectual exchange, shaping the modern world in the process.
Frankopan takes readers on a thrilling, historical journey across time, narrating a tale that spans from the rise and fall of empires to the spread of the Black Death and the discovery of America, all the way to the contemporary issues like oil wars and global terrorism.
This book not only chronicles the history of the Silk Roads and their significant role in shaping the world as we know it, but also urges readers to consider the important and complex ways in which the past informs the present. With a narrative as interconnected and intricate as the trade routes it describes, "The Silk Roads" offers an essential reorientation of world history, and a fascinating lens through which to understand the interconnectedness of cultures and regions.
