This review originally written for Amazon in In The Inheritance of Rome, Professor Wickham attempts a new survey of the years to www.doorway.rufically one that avoids the 'two grand narratives' of Nationalism and Modernity. In an introduction that amply spells out his objectives, he argues--effectively, I think--for his methods and techniques, and for the need to look at this epoch without any preconceived notions as to how they fit into those aforementioned storylines. The Inheritance of Rome by Chris Wickham is the second book in the series the Penguin History of Europe, following The Birth of Classical Europe. Like the earlier book, The Inheritance of Rome is more concerned with the uses the people of the era made of their understanding of the past than with giving a straightforward chronology of the era. Wickham's Inheritance of Rome is an excellent analysis of the period. For readers interested in Late Antiquity and Early Middle Ages, it is a well-written, well-balanced, elegant, and lucid account. Relationships between Western Europe and the Empires in the East (Byzantium, Arab caliphates)are clearly explained.
