Sources of the Western Tradition Volume I: From Ancient Times to the Enlightenment

By Marvin Perry

With a collection of over 400 sources, each accompanied by an introductory essay and review questions, this two-volume primary source reader emphasizes the intellectual history and values of the Western tradition. Sources are grouped around important themes in European history, including developments in intellectual and religious thought, warfare, revolution, and socio-economic change. The tenth edition includes more than 80 new selections and features completely revised chapters on the Middle Ages, the two world wars, totalitarianism, and Europe after World War II. To assure that this edition is as current as possible, the editors present essays -- updated just before publication -- on the European Union, ISIS, and Muslim immigration in Europe. There are also more sources on women, and the introductions and review questions are updated.
