| Abstract: | Such a vast subject can, in my opinion, be tackled in only one manner if one is to avoid indefinite generalizations: one has to focus on certain primary aspects of Mediterranean history, analysing their characteristics, and explifying them with facts which are, as much as possible, new and which may serve to describe them. From their totality should emerge an overview, certainly not complete but hopefully indicative, of the great trends of history, which are inevitably determined by men and the environment. I will therefore divide my paper in three sections: prehistory, ancient history, and medieval and modern history. For each I shall seek to set down the major characteristics and also the essential links between them. |
