Which century is defined by global pandemics, shifting climates, violent uprisings, and a new world order emerging from the ashes of the old? While it sounds like the 21st, it is the story of the fourteenth century - a monumental era of change that reshaped every corner of the globe.
In this truly global overview, five historians from the trusted World History Encyclopedia bring to life the diverse cultures and cataclysmic events of the 14th century. From the ravages of the Black Death in European history to the glittering heights of the golden Mali Empire in Africa, this medieval history book offers an unprecedented look at a world connected by trade, faith, and a shared human experience.
Journey Across the Late Middle AgesThe Forsaken 14th Century aims to redress the frequent neglect of certain lesser-known regions and give a truly global view, a vision of history that illustrates the interconnectedness of events, not just in the places where the historical record is rich but in every region of the world. Through a blend of archaeological records, oral traditions, and written accounts, this global history book reveals that despite differences in language and lifestyle, the people of the fourteenth century shared our modern fears of misrule, illness, disaster, and social upheaval.
Featuring a global timeline and maps by World History Encyclopedia's in-house cartographer Simeon Netchev, and extensive bibliographies for every region, this is an essential comparative medieval history book for students, researchers, and history enthusiasts alike.
