Sinopsis
This bestselling, seminal book - a general survey of Europe in the era of `Rennaisance and Reformation' - was originally published in Denys Hay's famous Series, `A General History of Europe'. It looks at sixteenth-century Europe as a complex but interconnected whole, rather than as a mosaic of separate states. The authors explore its different aspects through the various political structures of the age - empires, monarchies, city-republics - and how they functioned and related to one another. A strength of the book remains the space it devotes to the growing importance of town-life in the sixteenth century, and to the economic background of political change.

De la contraportada
This bestselling, seminal book - a general survey of Europe in the era of Rennaisance and Reformation - was originally published in Denys Hay' s famous Series, A General History of Europe.
It looks at sixteenth-century Europe as a complex but interconnected whole, rather than as a mosaic of separate states. The authors explore its different aspects through the various political structures of the age - empires, monarchies, city-republics - and how they functioned and related to one another.
A strength of the book remains the space it devotes to the growing importance of town-life in the sixteenth century, and to the economic background of political change.
Central to the book, as to the century itself, is the Reformation and the religious and intellectual movements that fuelled it. The authors also give full weight to the magnificent cultural acheivements of the age.
Front flap
The second edition of Europe in the Sixteenth Century , first published in 1989, saw the addition of a new co-author, Gerry Bowler, to the already distinguished team. They made the following improvements to the original book, first published in 1968:
· A new chapter on Social Life takes account of research on demographic history, attitudes to women and family, and on the impact of education, disease and war.
· Completely rewritten chapter on Literature to give more attention to its international dimension, popular culture and to the contribution of women.
· Greatly expanded material on popular religion, witchcraft and magic
· Extensive reworking of the discussion of ideas - particularly the history of political theory and the origins of the scientific revolution.
