With the sole exception of ancient Egypt, the Eurasian landmass has been the breeding ground for the largest empire of each moment in history.Why has Eurasia been so prone to large empires? Similarly, why did so many technological breakthroughs — from writing to gunpowder — occur in Eurasia?

Introduction to the Columbian Exchange (Revised)
In recognition of the holiday(s),* this is a revision of one of the podcast's earliest episodes, Introduction to the Columbian Exchange. The "Columbian Exchange" refers to the interhemispheric transmission of diseases, food crops, populations, cultures, and technologies in the years after Columbus’s famous First Voyage. The term was invented in 1972 by the famous biological historian Alfred W. Crosby Jr. of the University of Texas at Austin. The original episode focuses on the impact of diseases and crops that moved from one hemisphere to the other following 1492. It is replete with interesting factoids! The revisions include thoughts on the hu...

Talkin' Under the Red Sky
A Million $ Bash Roundtable Only one year after the triumphal release of “Oh Mercy,” Dylan came out with 1990’s “Under the Red Sky.” The album is known for its all-star musicians—George Harrison, Slash, David Crosby, Bruce Hornsby, Al Kooper, David Lindley, and others—and was produced by Don Was. It is filled with the language and structure of children’s songs and music—which is befitting an album dedicated to “Gabby Goo-Goo,” likely Dylan’s then-toddler daughter, Desiree Gabrielle Dennis-Dylan. There are counting songs, fairytales, and echoes of nursery rhymes. But the songs often sport an ominous feel that is har...

This is an encore presentation of our special Columbus Day episode, which originally dropped on October 12, 2021. It remains one of the most popular episodes of the History of the Americans. Last year I released it on the actual day, rather than on the Monday holiday, but this year I'll go with the flow. One of the reasons is that all the popular and social media discourse on Columbus happens on the government holiday, rather than the anniversary itself.

Medical officers in charge of the American Expeditionary Forces in World War I were confident that they could stop all infectious diseases in their tracks. The previous advances in medical science showed them that wartime epidemics could be stopped through sanitary measures. But when the flu pandemic ripped through their ranks, they didn’t know what to do. And the government was too focused on winning the war to offer much help to the civilian population. After th...

哥伦布大交换
哥伦布交换(英语:Columbian Exchange),又称大交换(Grand Exchange),是一场东半球与西半球之间生物、农作物、人种(包括欧洲人与非洲黑人)、文化、传染病、甚至思想观念的突发性交流。它是人类历史上的跨越种族、地域的一件重要事件。1492年哥伦布首次航行到美洲大陆,不仅世纪性大规模航海的开始,更是旧大陆与新大陆之间联系的开始,引发各种生态上的巨大转变。历史学者艾弗瑞.克罗斯比(Alfred W. Crosby)在1972年出版的著作《哥伦布大交换:1492年以后的生物影响和文化冲击》(The Columbian Exchange: Biological and Cultural Consequences of 1492)中,首先提出这个观念。 哥伦布大交换对地球上的每个社会带来巨大的影响。如欧洲人携带新的疾病传入美洲,美洲的原住民因为没有抗体,所以造成很多人丧生于天花并且造成大量的文化流失。在哥伦布到达以前,美洲的人口数不明,但是初估这次的灾害造成了至少50-90%的人口丧生,估计当时死亡1500-1650万人左右。 但是从另一个观点而言,这次的接触替两个半球带来了人口增加,和多样的作物,例如新的玉米品种和牲畜。在当时的探险者将它们带回欧亚大陆之后,具备强大生产力的玉米、马铃薯和蕃茄便成为当时重要的作物,丰富的农产品导致欧洲人口激增,同样的南美洲作物引入南亚和西非等地后,使得当地蓬勃发展并且有大量的人口往陆上定居。在中国同样受惠于美洲农作的高生产力作物而人口不断暴增,另一方面,欧洲人把新型灌溉技术引进了南美洲,终结了南美刀耕火种的原始农作形态。 此外,伴随着西方殖民者的扩张和采矿业尤其是炼银业的发展和南美洲大量银矿(如波托西银矿)的发现,银产量空前增长,以西班牙帝国为主的西方强国把大量的白银销往东亚,尤其是明朝,造成了中国历史上空前的通货膨胀,并在一定层面上导致明朝灭亡和清军入关,亚洲的局势也受到了极大的改变。 Powered by Firstory Hosting
