Beschreibung

Traditions & Encounters, (c)2020 has been updated and fully aligned to the new AP World History course and Exam for the 2019-2020 school year. Integrated AP features in both the text and the digital resources support teachers and students as they transition into the new course Framework. Retaining the text's thematic perspective, the instruction has been reorganized to reflect the new time span and revised themes, skills, and processes and foster connections that illustrate both continuities and changes across time periods. Students are led to analyze historical sources and evidence as they interpret, draw inferences, and evaluate a variety of documents to gain an understanding of the context and connections among events. Using historical reasoning, students gain an understanding of how to develop an argument based on relevant evidence. Includes updated, hardcover student edition with AP-style test practice multiple choice, short answer, and long essay questions at the end of each chapter.

Autor

Jerry H. Bentley was professor of history at the University of Hawai'i and editor of the Journal of World History. His research on the religious, moral, and political writings of Renaissance humanists led to the publication of Humanists and Holy Writ: New Testament Scholarship in the Renaissance (Princeton, 1983) and Politics and Culture in Renaissance Naples (Princeton, 1987). More recently, his research was concentrated on global history and particularly on processes of cross-cultural interaction. His book Old World Encounters: Cross-Cultural Contacts and Exchanges in Pre-Modern Times (New York, 1993) examines processes of cultural exchange and religious conversion before the modern era, and his pamphlet Shapes of World History in Twentieth-Century Scholarship (Washington, D.C., 1996) discusses the historiography of world history. His most recent publication is The Oxford Handbook of World History (Oxford, 2011), and he served as a member of the editorial team preparing the forthcoming Cambridge History of the World. Jerry Bentley passed away in July 2012.
