Absolutism in Central Europe (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book investigates how scholars from a variety of disciplines have defined and explained political development across what was formerly known as the "age of absolutism." It assesses whether the term still has utility as a tool of analysis and it explores the wider ramifications of the process of state-formation from the experience of central Europe from the early 17th century to the start of the 19th.
