Europe in the sixteenth century

by H. G. Koenigsberger

Examines sixteenth-century Europe as a complex but interconnected whole and explores the various political structures of the age. Central to the book, is the Reformation and the religious and intellectual movements that fuelled it. A strength of the book is the space it devotes to the town-life in the sixteenth century, and to the economic background of political change.
