I'm basically agreeing with lamin except I see it as evolving from instead of replacing [QUOTE]Originally posted by lamin: [qb] The idea of the West developed only in recent times--perhaps replacing the older concept of Christendom. [/qb][/QUOTE][/qb][/QUOTE]The concept is all we are talking about. There was no unified geopolitical or cultural context under which ALL of Europe could be considered "Western" in ancient times. Greece was Greece, Rome was Rome, the Celts were the Celts, The Vikings the Vikings, The Gauls the Gauls and so on. All different cultures with different histories not unified into any sort of common cultural context. [/QB][/QUOTE]
