This set of books includes a total of 3 volumes: "Common Sense of World Literature", "Common Sense of World Economy" and "Common Sense of World History". "Common Sense of World Literature" takes time as the main axis and uses the form of a story to tell the story from four parts: ancient literature, medieval literature, European literature before the 19th century, 19th century and contemporary literature. It provides a detailed and in-depth description of the great writers, important literary works and their era backgrounds that have influenced the world for thousands of years. The author uses vivid and smooth writing to describe the history of literature in a poetic and picturesque way. This is a compendium of literary history that is very suitable for general readers to get started. "Common Sense of the World Economy" follows the order of discussion from industry to commerce to finance and currency. It discusses the original agricultural organizational form and the economic forms of various periods such as pre-capitalism. It traces the birth history of capitalism and explores the unique social and historical conditions for the emergence of capitalism in the West. It uses a large amount of space to explain that the reason why capitalism came into being in the West is not only due to the superior geographical environment along the Mediterranean coast, but more importantly, based on its inherent driving force of the spirit of capitalism. "Common Sense of World History": Mr. He Bingsong takes "national rejuvenation" as the main theme of writing history textbooks, breaking away from the usual "Eurocentric theory" and looking at the overall world composed of Asia, Europe, Africa and the Americas. Starting from Asia, the book describes the origin of world culture and how Europe gradually dominated the process of modern world history, as well as the formation of world powers and the development of colonialism. It also intersperses the development of Eastern culture and its impact on Europe.
Reader comments
I especially like the volume "General Knowledge of World Literature". It tells the development of literature in the form of stories, which gives me a deeper understanding of those great writers and works. Like a friend of mine who is very interested in literature and this book will definitely make her unable to put it down. I think this book is not only suitable for housewives, but also for everyone who wants to understand world culture.
