| Synopsis: |
In this study, 'Eva Bal 'azs, one of the foremost living authorities on eighteenth-century Central Europe, examines a crucial period in the coexistence of the Austrian hereditary provinces and Hungary. In a Europe torn by wars and revolutions, both partners in this ambivalent relationship are shown to have collaborated in bringing about those reforms in the Habsburg monarchy which later inspired movements for reform around East-Central Europe. It includes archival material from several countries, distilled into a lively picture of the age. It should be of interest to students and specialists of Habsburg and Central European history the educated general reader with an interest in history or central and East European Affairs. |
