Zustand: Gut. 717 S./p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - A good and clean copy. - In THE YEAR 2000, half the world's people will be Asian, and one eighth will be African; a majority, too, will be non-Christian. And of the world's twenty largest cities, none will be in Europe or the United States. These startling facts make clear that after five hundred years of Western domination, our world is entering its first period of a truly global human history. With the urgent awareness that we Americans can no longer afford to be limited to an understanding of culture that begins and ends in the West, Kwame Anthony Appiah and Henry Louis Gates, Jr., two of our most esteemed scholars, have compiled this important volume of information, the first authoritative overview of global culture to emphasize the achievement of the non-Western world. Ranging from the Abakwa Society to zydeco music, The Dictionary of Global Culture provides a vast survey of cultural subjects from all over the worldEast Asia, India, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America, and Australasia, as well as Europe and North America. The book's more than 1,200 entrieson writers, musicians, deities, rulers, philosophies, literary formshave been prepared by a team of regional experts from every part of the world, including scholars from other cultures in addition to Western scholars of other cultures. While no work of its kind can be even remotely exhaustive, The Dictionary of Global Culture provides an essential starting point for those who would participate in the emerging global civilization. For students, businesspeople, and informed Americans from all walks of life, here is an invitation to journey through the range of human cultures, many of whose traditions we are only beginning to learn . . . and to learn to respect. - Kwame Anthony Appiah is Professor of Philosophy and of Afro-American Studies at Harvard University. He is the author of In My Father's House, and lives in Boston. Henry Louis Gates, Jr., author of Colored People, is W. E. B. Du Bois Professor of Humanities and Chair of the Department of Afro-American Studies at Harvard. He lives in Cambridge. They are coeditors of Transition magazine.
