La historia no es inevitable.
Detrás de cada imperio que ascendió y cada dinastÃa que cayó yacÃan momentos en los que el mundo se balanceaba sobre el filo de la navaja -instantes en los que una batalla, una decisión o una muerte podrÃan haber redirigido la civilización misma.
Los imperios que nunca fueron explora cuarenta de estos momentos crÃticos a lo largo de tres mil años de historia antigua. Y si Persia hubiera conquistado Grecia en Salamina? Y si César hubiera sobrevivido a los Idus, o la dinastÃa Han hubiera perdurado ocho siglos en lugar de cuatro? Y si la Biblioteca de AlejandrÃa nunca se hubiera quemado, o el Templo de Jerusalén nunca hubiera caÃdo?
A partir de una erudición rigurosa y una precisión imaginativa, cada capÃtulo reconstruye cómo funcionaban realmente estas civilizaciones -para luego revelar cómo decisiones diferentes podrÃan haberlas transformado. Desde Acad hasta Roma, desde la Edad del Bronce hasta Bizancio, esta obra pionera ilumina la verdadera fragilidad y contingencia del mundo antiguo.
Abarcando seis continentes y los mayores imperios de la antigüedad, Los imperios que nunca fueron nos muestra las historias que nunca sucedieron -y nos ayuda a comprender, más claramente que nunca, por qué la nuestra sà ocurrió.
Para lectores de Mary Beard, Yuval Noah Harari y todos aquellos que alguna vez se han preguntado qué habÃa detrás de la puerta que la historia nunca abrió.
