Bøker i Bloomsbury History of Europe-serien

In this classic textbook history of early medieval Europe, Roger Collins provides a succinct account of the centuries during which Europe changed from being an abstract geographical expression to a new culturally coherent, if politically divided, entity.

This is a fully-revised edition of a well-established synthesis of the period from the Thirty Years War to the consolidation of absolute monarchy and the landowning society of the ancien regime. Thematically organised, the book covers all of Europe, from Britain and Scandinavia to Spain and Eastern Europe.

This history of Europe from the French Revolution to the First World War weaves together political, economic, social and cultural developments.
