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.
