Book Description
Excerpt from Early European Civilization: A Textbook for Secondary Schools In the reorganization of history work in the high school we are confronted by many problems. Two of these are especially important: First, what work shall we give in the first year that is devoted to history? Second, on what shall we place the emphasis? Careful investigation shows that a large and constantly increasing number of teachers favor a course in Early European History as more valuable to the average student than a whole year in Ancient History. A still larger number express a preference for more social and economic history than we have had in the past. If we meet these new needs and demands, we must, of necessity, omit many of the subjects formerly given in the first year or two of the history course. We must treat a few selected topics somewhat fully rather than give a brief summary of a large number. Otherwise we shall repeat a mistake which has been made rather frequently in education during recent years, that is, we shall add new material without eliminating the older material that can be spared most easily. The selection of topics as given in this book, together with the method of presentation, represents the results of several years' experimentation by the author and others in the classroom. In covering the broad field designated as Early European History, this book deals primarily with human progress. It devotes especial attention to great movements, to important leaders, to the life of the people and to the civilization of different periods.

Book Description
Enlightenment thinkers, searching for ancient models to understand contemporary affairs, were the first to critically interpret Alexander the Great’s achievements. As Pierre Briant shows, in their minds Alexander was the first European: an empire builder who welcomed trade with the “Orient” and brought Western civilization to its oppressed peoples.
