DESCRIPTION; CHARSET=UTF-8 :In recent scholarly and public venues, the Mongol Empire has been celebrated as a moment of pre-modern globalization, an opening of trans-continental trajectories of cultural, social, and biological exchange. This is exemplified by the celebrated work of Rashid al-Din, and especially by the world history that he presented to Öljeitü Sultan in 1307 and which has earned him hismoniker as the “first world historian.” This perspective, however, is not limited to modern analyses of the Mongol age. People living under Mongol rule were themselves already looking beyond familiar boundaries and recognizing their time as an age of new universalizing politics, scholarship, and faith. From the “detribalization” of the nomadic steppes into the supra-tribal Mongol state to Buddhist and Muslim ideas of universal kingship, the experience of Mongol rule was understood as something new and unbounded. http://www.exeter.ac.uk/events/details/?event=13632
