Product Information
From celebrated Yale professor Valerie Hansen, a groundbreaking work of history showing that bold explorations and daring trade missions connected all of the world's great societies for the first time at the end of the first millennium. People often believe that the years immediately prior to AD 1000 were, with just a few exceptions, lacking in any major cultural developments or geopolitical encounters, that the Europeans hadn't yet reached North America, and that the farthest feat of sea travel was the Vikings' invasion of Britain. But how, then, to explain the presence of blonde-haired people in Maya temple murals at Chich n Itz , Mexico? Could it be possible that the Vikings had found their way to the Americas during the height of the Maya empire? Valerie Hansen, an award-winning historian, argues that the year 1000 was the world's first point of major cultural exchange and exploration. Drawing on nearly thirty years of research, she presents a compelling account of first encounters between disparate societies, which sparked conflict and collaboration eerily reminiscent of our contemporary moment. For readers of Jared Diamond's Guns, Germs, and Steel and Yuval Noah Harari's Sapiens , The Year 1000 is an intellectually daring, provocative account that will make you rethink everything you thought you knew about how the modern world came to be. It will also hold up a mirror to the hopes and fears we experience today.

Reviews
"A gripping account of exploration and ingenuity, sweeping across the economic alliances and great networks of trade that connected disparate regions around the globe....Through this generous and accessible distillation of global history, Ms. Hansen opens our minds to a world where it was still possible to venture, fearlessly, into the unknown." --Wall Street Journal, "Typically wide-ranging, informative, and illuminating, Valerie Hansen has written a lovely book that puts together the pieces of the global jigsaw puzzle of a millennium ago." --Peter Frankopan, author of The Silk Roads: A New History of the World, New York Times Book Review Editor's Choice "Fascinating ... [a] highly impressive, deeply researched, lively and imaginative work." --The New York Times Book Review, "Spotlighting the encounters of Norse, Maya, African, Chinese, and Arabic peoples--and more--the book shows how their coming together in war and peace, and commerce and culture, profoundly shaped the world to come. A lively read filled with surprises." --Joanne B. Freeman, author of Affairs of Honor and The Field of Blood, "Outstanding...a lively and engrossing book that describes in fascinating detail how trade enriched the world. [Hansen] displays the delightful exuberance of an author deeply in love with her subject." --The Times (London), "Fascinating ... [a] highly impressive, deeply researched, lively and imaginative work." --The New York Times Book Review, "Daring...A smart, broad-ranging survey of the global Middle Ages that is learned, thought-provoking--and perfectly tuned to our times." -- London Sunday Times, "Offers timely proof that globalization has a point of origin and a long history. Then and now, it has been about exchange, competition, and exploitation. At least in the year 1000, globalization included fruitful forms of communication and knowledge. Although Hansen doesn't quite have us wishing we could turn back the clock, she offers in three hundred vivid pages the kind of deep texture that makes an age come alive." --Paul Freedman, author of Out of the East: Spices and the Medieval Imagination, "Valerie Hansen has not only fashioned a coherent and original vision of the world in the year 1000, in itself a remarkable feat of scholarship, but described it in a clear, concrete and absorbing narrative that will entertain and enlighten every reader." --R.I. Moore, author of The First European Revolution and The War on Heresy, "Valerie Hansen's sweeping tour of the world in the year 1000 is revelatory and full of eye-opening surprises. She tells a rich and fascinating story of the many ways that far-flung societies a millennium ago forged connections among themselves, a reminder that the forces of globalization that seem so potent today have been at work for centuries. A masterly work of scholarship." --Liaquat Ahamed, author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Lords of Finance, New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice "Fascinating ... [a] highly impressive, deeply researched, lively and imaginative work." --The New York Times Book Review, "An absorbing read that makes a distant world feel near." --Francesca Trivellato, Andrew W. Mellon Professor of History at Princeton's Institute for Advanced Study, and author of The Familiarity of Strangers, "Daring... A smart, broad-ranging survey of the global Middle Ages that is learned, thought-provoking--and perfectly tuned to our times." -- London Sunday Times, "Bold and entertaining...ultimately, a celebration of difference--and readiness--for the unfamiliar." --Arezou Azad, Senior Research Fellow at the University of Oxford and Humboldt Fellow at the Freie University of Berlin, "Covers a vast amount of territory in a concise, readable manner...A thoroughly satisfying history of a distant era and people." -- Kirkus, "Full of eye-opening surprises. Hansen tells a rich and fascinating story of the many ways that far-flung societies a millennium ago forged connections....A masterly work of scholarship." --Liaquat Ahamed, author of Lords of Finance, "Hansen has not only fashioned a coherent and original vision of the world in the year 1000, in itself a remarkable feat of scholarship, but described it in a clear, concrete, and absorbing narrative that will entertain and enlighten every reader." --R.I. Moore, author of The First European Revolution and The War on Heresy, "The myth of the 'European Middle Ages' dissolves in the ocean currents and trade winds of this stimulating account...Bolstered by facts and enlivened by intriguing theories, Hansen's book presents a world of objects, ideas, people, animals, and know-how constantly on the move." --Barbara H. Rosenwein, author of A Short History of the Middle Ages and Generations of Feeling, "Breezily written but intensively researched... The Year 1000 happily abounds with checkmate discoveries." --Boyd Tonkin, TheArtsDesk.com, "Valerie Hansen takes us on an informative and entertaining romp around the world of a thousand years ago, on everything from Viking longboats to camel caravans...Anyone who thinks that globalization is something new needs to read this book!" --Ian Morris, author of Why the West Rules--for Now, "Vivid and edifying... [Hansen] displays a remarkable lightness of touch while stuffing the book full of fascinating details, and easily toggles between the big picture and local affairs. This astonishingly comprehensive account casts world history in a brilliant new light." --Publishers Weekly, "The myth of the 'European Middle Ages' dissolves in the ocean currents and trade winds of this stimulating account of early global connections. Bolstered by facts and enlivened by intriguing theories, Hansen's book presents a world of objects, ideas, people, animals, and know-how constantly on the move. A brisk and refreshing trip for us all." --Barbara H. Rosenwein, author of A Short History of the Middle Ages and Generations of Feeling, "Vivid and edifying... [Hansen] displays a remarkable lightness of touch while stuffing the book full of fascinating details, and easily toggles between the big picture and local affairs. This astonishingly comprehensive account casts world history in a brilliant new light." --Publishers Weekly (starred review), "The world has been connected longer than the schoolbooks tell you, a whole millennium longer at least: connections of gold and spices, dragons and slaves and faith. Valerie Hansen teases out the unfamiliar links between Chinese markets, Baghdad fortunes, strange blonds on the walls of Mayan temples, and Vikings on Russian rivers in a careful but accessible and truly global history." --Michael Pye, author of The Edge of the World, "[A] meticulous portrayal of the explorers, traders, and rulers who built a complex network which linked a disparate world...deeply engrossing." --Booklist, " The Year 1000 is a tour-de-force and offers many new ways of thinking about the past." --The Spectator, "[A] unique fusion of firsthand, on-site investigations around the world and intensive research...What's more, all of this energetic, scholarly activity is combined with a compelling argument for a new hypothesis concerning the origins of globalization, a topic that could hardly be more pertinent to our own age." --Victor H. Mair, editor of The Columbia History of Chinese Literature and coauthor of The History of Tea and Sacred Display, "As Valerie Hansen shows in this fascinating book, much of the inhabited globe already had complex systems of long-distance trade more than a millennium ago." --The Telegraph (UK), "Elegantly written and meticulously researched...a whirlwind world tour that challenges the notion of a more recently hyper-connected globe." --Sarah Parcak, author of Archaeology from Space: How the Future Shapes Our Past, "Remarkable... More than a history of global trade, this is a story of human encounters brought to life by vignettes and voices from every corner of a connected medieval planet." --Nile Green, author of Sufism: A Global History, "A whole new way of looking at the world. If you have the idea that medieval history was a time when there were few connections between those who inhabited different places on the map, this book will reorient you in the most stimulating way possible....Brilliant." --Rana Mitter, author of Forgotten Ally, "Hansen's story of the movement of peoples, products, religions, and ideas around the year 1000 makes it clear that globalization is nothing new...No one has told this story better or has been able to combine the latest scholarly research with such an exciting and accessible narrative. This is how world history should be written." --Stuart B. Schwartz, author of All Can Be Saved: Religious Tolerance and Salvation in the Iberian Atlantic World
