This remarkable study in social and cultural change explains how and why the Late Antique world between c 150 and c 750 AD came to differ from Classical civilizationThese centuries as the author demonstrates were the era in which the most deeply rooted of ancient institutions disappeared for all time By 476 the Russian empire had vanished from western Europe by 655 the Persian empire had vanished from the Near East Mr Brown Professor of History at Princeton University examines these changes and mens reactions to them but his account shows that the period was also one of outstanding new beginnings and defines the farreaching impact both of Christianity on Europe and of Islam on the Near East The result is a lucid answer to a crucial question in world history how the exceptionally homogeneous Mediterranean world of c 200 AD became divided into the three mutually estranged societies of the Middle Ages Catholic Western Europe Byzantium and Islam We still live with the results of these contrasts
