Acerca de esta escucha

This audiobook narrated by John Chancer tells the gripping story of what happened after the Bronze Age collapsed—why some civilizations endured, why some gave way to new ones, and why some disappeared forever

Features Eric Cline’s FAQs as bonus content

At the end of Eric Cline's bestselling history 1177 B.C., many of the Late Bronze Age civilizations of the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean lay in ruins, undone by invasion, revolt, natural disasters, famine, and the demise of international trade. An interconnected world that had boasted major empires and societies, relative peace, robust commerce, and monumental architecture was lost and the so-called First Dark Age had begun. Now, in After 1177 B.C., Cline tells the compelling story of what happened next, over four centuries, across the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean world. It is a story of resilience, transformation, and success, as well as failures, in an age of chaos and reconfiguration.

After 1177 B.C. tells how the collapse of powerful Late Bronze Age civilizations created new circumstances to which people and societies had to adapt. Those that failed to adjust disappeared from the world stage, while others transformed themselves, resulting in a new world order that included Phoenicians, Philistines, Israelites, Neo-Hittites, Neo-Assyrians, and Neo-Babylonians. Taking the story up to the resurgence of Greece marked by the first Olympic Games in 776 B.C., the book also describes how world-changing innovations such as the use of iron and the alphabet emerged amid the chaos.

Filled with lessons for today about why some societies survive massive shocks while others do not, After 1177 B.C. reveals why this period, far from being the First Dark Age, was a new age with new inventions and new opportunities.

Too much detail without reference to any story.

I read and listened to the first book and was stunned and intrigued. And now I've heard about two hours of this and I'm simply bored. I have a PhD, so I'm comfortable with research. But so far the story has not appeared and the deep dive into the weeds of research is not compelling without some organizing narrative to return to and enhance as the story proceeds. It reads like a list in paragraph form. After the first book, which was compelling and informative, this is a disappointment.

What's given credence and tends to go off-track

Throughout the book, Prof. Cline warns that ancient sources should be taken with a large grain of salt when extolling the virtues and actions of the various leaders and kings, EXCEPT when it comes to what he terms the Hebrew Bible - this he seemingly takes at face value.

Another point which may be just me, when telling about various and sundry kings, pharaohs, monuments, cities, etc. he constantly interrupts the narrative to give background information on who and when artifacts were discovered, what happened to the artifacts, where they're now kept and so on. This information lends itself to being put in footnotes so as not to disrupt the flow of the main narrative. Bad enough in print, very distracting in audible format. His editor should have stepped in.

A good introduction to the beginning of the Uron Age

It brought the Iron Age beginnings into clearer focus and made me think of the parallels with today’s civilization

not as good as first one

too much trying to sway opinion and subjective themes. I like history from a factual and logical analysis standpoint. I'm not interested in how it makes the author feel unless from firsthand experience of the subject.

Excellent summary

I like the regional approach. I would have become lost in a chronological exposition that jumped from one society to the next.

Very detailed

Good book, I think it’s in the weeds quite a bit, and could use a little more narrative to tie the different pieces together. Excellent book if you have a direct education on the topic, whereas for a layman, it spends a lot of time around specific archaeological digs that were relevant to specific people while not connecting it to the ‘30,000 foot view’.
