The Earth Transformed: An Untold History | Peter Frankopan in conversation with William Dalrymple

The Earth Transformed: An Untold History | Peter Frankopan in conversation with William Dalrymple Historian and writer Peter Frankopan’s latest book, The Earth Transformed: An Untold History, is a revolutionary new history that reveals how climate change has dramatically shaped the development—and demise—of civilisations across time. Spanning centuries and continents, Frankopan explains how nature has always played a fundamental role in the writing of history and evaluates the fall of civilisations at the behest of Mother Nature. Peter Frankopan is Professor of Global History at the University of Oxford. His book The Silk Roads: A New History of the World, was named one of the Books of the Decade by The Sunday Times. The follow-up, The New Silk Roads: The Present and Future of the World, won the Human Sciences prize of the Carical Foundation. Frankopan’s new book, The Earth Transformed: An Untold History was published in the spring of 2023 and went straight to No2 the Bestseller lists – behind a book about Air Fryers. William Dalrymple is the author of the Wolfson Prize-winning White Mughals, Duff Cooper Prize-winning The Last Mughal, and the Hemingway and Kapuscinski Prize-winning Return of a King. His book, The Anarchy, was shortlisted for the Duke of Wellington medal, the Tata Book of the Year, and the Historical Writers Association Award, and won the 2020 Arthur Ross Medal from the US Council on Foreign Relations. Dalrymple has been awarded five honorary doctorates, is a fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, the Royal Asiatic Society, and the Royal Society of Edinburgh, and has held visiting lectureships at Princeton, Brown, and Oxford, where he is currently an Honorary Bodleian fellow and Visiting Fellow at All Souls.
