Aprašymas

This book analyses the development across five millennia of the distinctive civilization of littoral cities and societies on the world's maritime rims. Their metaphysics and mentalities are discussed along with their macro-social systems, geographies, geo-politics, and historical evolutions. Where rim societies are subtly shaped by their relationship to rivers and seas, the dominant horizon of most societies is land and territory. For thousands of years, this has created numerous tensions and powerful conflicts between the two. In this book, Peter Murphy explores these tensions, their manifestations and resolutions. It is a philosophy of history in the form of a macro-social theory.
