This network of exchange emerged along the borders between agricultural China and the steppe\n                  nomads during the Han Dynasty (206BCE-220CE), in consequence of the inter-dependence and the conflicts of these two distinctive\n                  societies.  In their quest for horses, fragrances, and spices, gems, glassware, and other exotics from the lands to their\n                  west, the Han Empire extended its dominion over the oases around the Takla Makan Desert and sent silk all the way to the Mediterranean,\n                  either through the land routes leading to the caravan city of Palmyra in Syria desert, or by way of northwest India, the Arabian\n                  Sea and the Red Sea, landing at Alexandria. The Silk Road survived the turmoil of the demise of the Han and Roman Empires,\n                  reached its golden age during the early middle age, when the Byzantine Empire and the Tang Empire became centers of silk culture\n                  and established the models for high culture of the Eurasian world.The coming of Islam extended silk culture to an even\n                  larger area and paved the way for an expanded market for textiles and other commodities. By the 11th century, however, the\n                  Silk Road was in decline because of intense competition from the sea routes of the Indian Ocean.  Using demand and supply\n                  as the framework for analyzing the formation and development of the Silk Road, the book examines the dynamics of the interactions\n                  of the nomadic pastoralists with sedentary agriculturalists, and the spread of new ideas, religions, and values into the world\n                  of commerce, thus illustrating the cultural forces underlying material transactions. This effort at tracing the interconnections\n                  of the diverse participants in the transcontinental Silk Road exchange will demonstrate that the world had been linked through\n                  economic and ideological forces long before the modern era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 24%;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForfattere:\u003c\/strong\u003e Xinru Liu\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 21%;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUtgave:\u003c\/strong\u003e ukjent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 24%;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpråk:\u003c\/strong\u003e Engelsk\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 21%;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSidetall:\u003c\/strong\u003e 168\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 24%;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780195338102\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 21%;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVekt:\u003c\/strong\u003e 303 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 24%;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForlag:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oxford University Press\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 21%;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInnbinding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pocket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 24%;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUtgitt:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2010\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 21%;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVeil. pris:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0 kr\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 24%;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKategori:\u003c\/strong\u003e Historie\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 21%;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Pent brukt bok med markeringer","offer_id":42649585221714,"sku":"9072-5","price":180.0,"currency_code":"NOK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2064\/2115\/files\/the_silk_road_in_world_history.jpg?v=1787691160","url":"https:\/\/bokia.no\/products\/the-silk-road-in-world-history-pb","provider":"Bokia.no","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
