Description:

In 1640 the term Europe was without real political significance. In the following years the idea of Europe came to mean much more - a period documented in this fascinating book.

Synopsis:

This reissue of a classic textbook has been revised and updated with a new introduction by the author. Geoffrey Treasure provides a thoroughly comprehensive account of the European experience at a time when so much of what is today identified as 'modern' began to take shape. Discussing key issues of the period, The Making of Modern Europe, 1647-1980 examines: * the evolution of the developing society * detailed studies of the people, their environment, attitudes and beliefs * economic aspects * the growth of the states * politics, war and diplomacy * religion, intellectualism and science. This work provides an excellent grounding for the study of seventeenth and eighteenth-century European history.
