Meer oor hierdie e-boek
Spice Trade Routes explores how the demand for spices like pepper and cinnamon drove maritime exploration, colonialism, and the creation of global economic networks. The book argues that the quest for these commodities acted as a major catalyst for global interaction, reshaping societies worldwide. Intriguingly, spices weren't just culinary enhancements; they served as medicines, perfumes, and status symbols, demonstrating their profound cultural and economic value.
The book progresses chronologically, beginning with the origins and uses of spices in ancient civilizations. It then traces the development of maritime technology and the impact of voyages by explorers such as Vasco da Gama. It culminates in an analysis of the lasting legacies of colonialism and globalization.
Highlighting the interconnectedness of history and economics, the book uniquely focuses on the spices themselves as key drivers of historical events rather than solely on the countries or companies involved.
