Civilization was born eight thousand years ago, between the floodplains of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, when migrants from the surrounding mountains and deserts began to create increasingly sophisticated urban societies. In the cities that they built, half of human history took place. In Babylon, Paul Kriwaczek tells the story of Mesopotamia from the earliest settlements seven thousand years ago to the eclipse of Babylon in the sixth century BCE. Bringing the people of this land to life in vibrant detail, the author chronicles the rise and fall of power during this period and explores the political and social systems, as well as the technical and cultural innovations, which made this land extraordinary. At the heart of this book is the story of Babylon, which rose to prominence under the Amorite king Hammurabi from about 1800 BCE. Even as Babylon's fortunes waxed and waned, it never lost its allure as the ancient world's greatest city. Engaging and compelling, Babylon reveals the splendor of the ancient world that laid the foundation for civilization itself.

This book is an educational text written to introduce our readers to Western Civilization. How it was born and how it grew to become the world's leading civilization in the last century, for better or for worse.The text tells the story of the genesis and decline of our civilization through two revolutionary figures: Jesus of Nazareth and Karl Marx. The thesis on which the book is based is that just as Christianity erased Greco-Roman civilization from the face of the earth, Socialism, transformed into Progressivism, is killing Western Civilization dragging it toward suicide.The disease that is overwhelming us is nihilism.We affirm that Progressives are the new Christians because, as the first Christians did, they are the bearers of a disease that is terminal for our society: nihilism. This book is the history of nihilism starting from Jesus of Nazareth and ending with our Progressives.We must point out that although Jesus’ vision included nihilistic elements, it also laid the ethical foundations that shaped Western Civilization. In contrast, Marx’s revelation, deeply nihilistic, influenced modern Progressivism leading to existential challenges for our civilization. In other words, our future is a black hole.Fom Jesus to Marx, by Marcello Caroti, is a profound historical and anthropological exploration that starts from the revolutionary figure of Jesus Christ to arrive at the modern ideologies of Karl Marx.In this intriguing journey through the centuries, the author sheds light on how the teachings and actions of Jesus influenced not only religious thought but also the social and political currents that have shaped the modern world.The book begins by analysing Jesus' mission in detail, exploring his differences with John the Baptist and how his message of hope and salvation stood out in an era of rigid social and religious divisions.The author then traces an intellectual and historical path that connects the doctrines of Jesus with the theories of Marx, highlighting how Christianity influenced and shaped Marxist thought.With clear language and engaging narrative, "From Jesus to Marx" is not only essential reading for history and antropology buffs, but also for anyone interested in understanding the roots of modern thought and its impact on society. The book offers a unique and thought-provoking perspective on two of the most influential figures in human history and their lasting impact.

From the bestselling author of The Ascent of Money and The Square and the Tower “A dazzling history of Western ideas.” —The Economist “Mr. Ferguson tells his story with characteristic verve and an eye for the felicitous phrase.” —Wall Street Journal “[W]ritten with vitality and verve . . . a tour de force.” —Boston Globe Western civilization’s rise to global dominance is the single most important historical phenomenon of the past five centuries. How did the West overtake its Eastern rivals? And has the zenith of Western power now passed? Acclaimed historian Niall Ferguson argues that beginning in the fifteenth century, the West developed six powerful new concepts, or “killer applications”—competition, science, the rule of law, modern medicine, consumerism, and the work ethic—that the Rest lacked, allowing it to surge past all other competitors. Yet now, Ferguson shows how the Rest have downloaded the killer apps the West once monopolized, while the West has literally lost faith in itself. Chronicling the rise and fall of empires alongside clashes (and fusions) of civilizations, Civilization: The West and the Rest recasts world history with force and wit. Boldly argued and teeming with memorable characters, this is Ferguson at his very best.

This study revisits one of the most extensive examples of the spread of ideas in the history of civilization: the diffusion of Indian religious and political ideas to Southeast Asia before the advent of Islam and European colonialism. Hindu and Buddhist concepts and symbols of kingship and statecraft helped to legitimize Southeast Asian rulers, and transform the political institutions and authority of Southeast Asia. But the process of this diffusion was not accompanied by imperialism, political hegemony, or "colonization" as conventionally understood. This book investigates different explanations of the spread of Indian ideas offered by scholars, including why and how it occurred and what were its key political and institutional outcomes. It challenges the view that strategic competition is a recurring phenomenon when civilizations encounter each other.

Jacques Cauvin has spent many years researching the beginnings of the Neolithic in the Near East, excavating key sites and developing new ideas to explain the hugely significant cultural, social and economic changes which transformed mobile hunter-gatherers into the first village societies and farmers in the world. In this book, first published in 2000, the synthesis of his mature understanding of the process beginning around 14,000 years ago challenges ecological and materialist interpretations, arguing for a quite different kind of understanding influenced by ideas of structuralist archaeologists and members of the French Annales school of historians. Defining the Neolithic Revolution as essentially a restructuring of the human mentality, expressed in terms of new religious ideas and symbols, the survey ends around nine thousand years ago, when the developed religious ideology, the social practice of village life and the economy of mixed farming had become established throughout the Near East and east Mediterranean, and spreading powerfully into Europe.
