Preface
When we set out to write Civilization in the West, we tried to write, first of all, a book that students would want to read. Throughout many years of planning, writing, revising, rewriting, and numerous meetings together, this was our constant overriding concern. Would the text work across the variety of Western civilization courses, with the different levels and formats that make up this fundamental course? We also solicited the reactions of scores of reviewers to this single question: “Would students want to read these chapters?” Whenever we received a resounding “No!” we began again—not just rewriting, but rethinking how to present material that might be complex in argument or detail or that might simply seem too remote to engage the contemporary student. Though all three of us were putting in long hours in front of computers, we quickly learned that we were engaged in a teaching rather than a writing exercise. And though the work was demanding, it was not unrewarding. We enjoyed writing this book, and we wanted students to enjoy reading it. We have been gratified to learn that our book successfully accomplished our objectives. It stimulated student interest and motivated students to want to learn about European history. Civilization in the West was successful beyond our expectations.
The text was so well received, in fact, that we decided to publish this alternative, brief version: A Brief History of Western Civilization: The Unfinished Legacy. In an era of rapidly changing educational materials, alternative formats and models should be available. We believe that students and general readers alike will enjoy a conveniently sized book that offers them a coherent, well-told story. In this edition of the brief text, we have enlarged and added detail to many of the full-color maps so that they are easier to see and use. We have also added a new feature, “Map Discovery,” that teaches students to think critically about maps, have included new essays to give students a feel for the cultural exchanges that have taken place between the West and the non-West entitled “The West and the Wider World,” and have replaced several of the chapter-opening “Visual Record” narratives.
