- Summary:
- "A more global, flexible way to teach art history. The history of art: a global view is the first major art history survey textbook -- written by a team of expert authors -- with a global narrative in mind. A chronological organization and 'Seeing connections' features help readers make cross-cultural comparisons, while brief, modular chapters (with on-page definitions) offer instructors unparalleled flexibility. You can assign more than one chapter per week for a fully global course, or skip and reorder chapters, for a more focused syllabus"-- Barnes & Noble website.
- "Thames & Hudson's The history of art : a global view grew out of the need for a more global, inclusive way to teach the history of the world's art. The author team of eleven specialists had already devided ways to meet the challenge of teaching globally in their own classrooms. Headed by authors Jean Robertson and Deborah Hutton, this community of scholars cohered around the shared goal of bringing multiple perspectives to a worldwide narrative. The resulting survey represents every global region as an important part of a chronological, interwoven history that emphasizes cross-cultural connections, contrasts, and comparisons"--Preface.
