TWO BOOK THIS SPRING ON THE NORTH SEA-BALTIC PEOPLE’S
(reading lists)
Lots of criticism of Pye’s writing ability (North Sea). But the fact that the book exists is still a sign of momentum.
North’s book (Baltic) doesn’t have any feedback yet and I can’t get my hands on it yet.
But I have high hopes that the two books form a good basis, along with a history of the Hanseatic league, of the central thesis:
**The North Sea / Baltic Kingdoms were the product of trade routes. And that, like the Aegean, trade, contract, trust, truth gave rise to reason and science.**
So it appears to me that mankind faces a terrible choice: to develop writing first and authoritarian rule, or to inherit (adopt, import) writing, and develop commercial (civic) rule.
