War was a central theme in the world history of the late fifteenth
and sixteenth centuries, with military capability and activity
central to its states, societies, economies and cultures. War in
the World 1450-1600 provides an account of warfare in the period,
placing it in global context. It offers a corrective to a narrative
that has emphasised European developments and obscured the history
of non-European military systems and cultures of war. Highlighting
conflict between non-Western powers, which constituted most of the
conflict around the world, as well as giving due attention to
warfare between Western and non-Western powers, Black emphasises
the breadth and variety of military trajectories and connections.
This comparative context also provides a framework for considering
the idea of a European-based Military Revolution. A wide-ranging
account of world military history in a period of substantial
development, the book will be essential reading for those
interested in global history and conflict. War in the World
1450-1600 is designed as a companion volume to Jeremy Black's
Beyond the Military Revolution: Warfare in the Seventeenth-Century
World.
