The Habsburg Empire 1700-1918

Autor Jean Berenger, C.A. Simpson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 dec 2016
This is the eagerly awaited second volume of Jean Bérenger's history of the Habsburgs. It covers the last two centuries of their rule and provides a compelling account of the fluctuations of Habsburg dynastic power and its disintegration after World War One. Bérenger gives a rich portrait of Habsburg greatness under Maria Theresa and Joseph II and shows how their successors proved more adroit at riding the tide of nationalism in their multi-ethnic empire than is often recognised.

Descriere

This survey covers the last two centuries of Habsburg rule from the great xxx; though troubled xxx; years of Maria Theresa and Joseph II, through the turmoil of the Napoleonic era, the long reign of Francis Joseph, when the dramatic nature of Habsburg rule came under increasing pressure and ends with the empire's dramatic disintegration after World War One. Primarily a political narrative, there is also discussion of economic developments, social, ethnic and cultural tensions. A timely examination of this critical period of central European history which enhances our understanding of current events in the Balkans.
