Book Title: Middle and Early Modern Ages

Subtitle: A World History Sourcebook

by John R. Bawden

Book Description: The documents in this primary source reader explore themes such as science, religious conflict, travelers in new cultural environments, ecological change, politics, technological change, individual rights, trade, and democracy. Primary sources, which are records created during the historical period under study, include legal codes, speeches, sacred scriptures, speeches, essays, poetry, plays, and physical objects. Because these sources originate from a specific time and place, they offer valuable insights into the past. The materials contained in this primary source reader supplement and reinforce textbooks such as World History Volume 1 (to 1500) and Volume 2 (from 1400).
