このコンテンツについて
Though perhaps less well-known today than the great empires that surrounded them, the historic peoples of Central Asia—such as the Scythians, the Sogdians, the Xiongnu nomads of Mongolia, the Turkic peoples, and many others—produced cultures of major significance.
In the 24 lectures of Crossroads of Civilization: A History of Central Asia, taught by Professor Eren Tasar of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, you will embark on a wide-ranging journey into the majestic landscapes, steppe and desert cultures, resplendent cities, and epic conquests that characterized this mysterious part of the world. Along the way, you will:
· Travel into the history of the many peoples who dominated the region, from the Scythians and Sogdians to the empire of the iconic Tamerlane.
· Learn about the region’s nomadic peoples; their religious practices, display of power through elaborate burials; their remarkable animal art; and their often-lavish yurts.
· Encounter the conquering powers that ruled Central Asia, such as the Persian Achaemenid Empire, the Arab Abbasid caliphate, which brought Islam; and the fearsome Mongols.
· Explore the sophisticated culture that grew under the Samanids, Timurids and Shibanids, seen in wide patronage of the arts, sciences, and scholarship, and construction of dazzling monuments.
· Delve into the policies of the Tsarist colonial regime and the cotton economy it created, causing suffering and rebellion.
· Visualize the Soviet rule of the region, marked by tragic famines and later substantial development; trace the Chinese domination of East Turkestan, and the challenges and successes of the modern Central Asian nations.
Crossroads of Civilization: A History of Central Asia reveals a part of the world that is relatively unknown to many of us, but which has played an integral role in the unfolding of human civilization, from the Far East to the frontiers of Europe.

The Mediterranean is one of the great wellsprings of human civilization. Central to the region’s history are the splendorous cities that flowered around the region—bases of power that saw innovation, commerce, expansion, and the building of great empires. Many of these cities have become icons of the ancient world, and exemplars of the cultures, conquests, and ways of life that have built western civilization.

For the past few hundred years, most of what we’ve been taught about the native cultures of North America came from reports authored by the conquerors and colonizers who destroyed them. Now - with the technological advances of modern archaeology and a new perspective on world history - we are finally able to piece together their compelling true stories. In Ancient Civilizations of North America, Professor Edwin Barnhart, Director of the Maya Exploration Center, will open your eyes to a fascinating world you never knew existed - even though you’ve been living right next to it, or even on top of it.

Great powers no longer fight great wars. But how exactly did countries like the United States go from confronting powerful adversaries in 1914 and 1939 Europe to waging lengthy counterinsurgency campaigns in places like Iraq and Afghanistan? The answer lies in the profound geopolitical and technological changes that came in between.
