Beschreibung
Examines how ancient Greeks, Romans, and Chinese constructed a civilized sense of Self and a 'barbarian' Other, and how these notions held up in critical periods of barbarian invasion and conquest. Gives original insights into the 'fall' of the Western Roman Empire and the sixth-century reunification of China.
