THE EUROPEAN WORLD 1500-1800 : AN INTRODUCTION TO EARLY MODERN HISTORY
Εκδότης Routledge , ISBN 9780415628648
The European World 1500-1800 provides a concise and authoritative textbook for the centuries between the Renaissance and the French Revolution. It presents early modern Europe not as a mere transitional phase, but a dynamic period worth studying in its own right. Written by an experienced team of specialists, and derived from a perennially successful undergraduate course, it offers a student-friendly introduction to all major themes and processes of early modern history.
Structured in four parts dealing with socio-economic, religious, cultural and political issues, it adopts a deliberately broad geographical perspective: Western and Central Europe receive particular attention, but dedicated chapters also explore the wider global context. For this thoroughly revised and improved second edition, the authors have added three new chapters on `Politics and Government', `Impact of War' and `Revolution'
Specially designed to assist learning, The European World 1500-1800 features:
state-of-the-art surveys of key topics written by an international team of historians
suggestions for seminar discussion and further reading
extracts from primary sources and generous illustrations, including maps
a glossary of key terms and concepts
a chronology of major events
a full index of persons, places and subjects
a fully-featured companion website, enhanced for this new edition
The European World 1500-1800 will be essential reading for all students embarking on the discovery of the early modern period.
