Anglo-German Relations and the Protestant Cause (eBook, ePUB)

Elizabethan Foreign Policy and Pan-Protestantism

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Challenging accepted notions of Elizabethan foreign policy, Gehring argues that the QueenâEUR(TM)s relationship with the Protestant Princes of the Holy Roman Empire was more of a success than has been previously thought. Based on extensive archival research, he contends that the enthusiastic and continual correspondence and diplomatic engagement between Elizabeth and these Protestant allies demonstrate a deeply held sympathy between the English Church and State and those of Germany and Denmark.
