These six highly-illustrated volumes provide the first truly
global, interdisciplinary history of youth covering the last 2,500
years. Leading scholars from around the world have leant their
expertise to create an innovative resource for historians, and
scholars and students of related fields. Chapter titles are
identical across each of the volumes. This gives the choice of
reading about a specific period in one of the volumes, or following
a theme across history by reading the relevant chapter in each of
the six. The themes (and chapter titles) are: Concepts of Youth;
Spaces and Places; Education and Work; Leisure and Play; Emotions;
Gender, Sexuality and the Body; Belief and Ideology; Authority and
Agency; War and Conflict; and Towards a Global History. The six
volumes cover: 1 - Antiquity (500BC-500AD); 2 - The Medieval Age
(500-1450); 3 - The Renaissance (1450-1650); 4 - The Age of
Enlightenment (1650-1800); 5 - The Age of Empire (1800-1920); 6 -
the Modern Age (1920-2000+). The page extent for the pack is
1728pp. Each volume opens with Notes on Contributors and an
Introduction and concludes with Notes, Bibliography, and an Index.
