Calvin's Geneva
ISBN: 9781620322963 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Synopsis: For over four hundred years, the city of Geneva has been important in Western history. The character of this city--steady, serious, erudite, clannish, and proud--has remained virtually unchanged since Calvin's time, the heroic age when she first became famous. Professor Monter relates the "success story" of this fascinating city through a fresh synthesis of printed and archival sources. In the sixteenth century, Geneva succeeded in winning and maintaining her independence, a feat unique in Reformation Europe. Into this special environment came Calvin--and his triumph was the result...

Rise of Female Kings in Europe, 1300-1800
ISBN: 9780300173277 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this lively and pathbreaking book, William Monter sketches Europe's increasing acceptance of autonomous female rulers between the late Middle Ages and the French Revolution. Monter surveys the governmental records of Europe's thirty women monarchs--the famous (Mary Stuart, Elizabeth I, Catherine the Great) as well as the obscure (Charlotte of Cyprus, Isabel Clara Eugenia of the Netherlands)--describing how each of them achieved sovereign authority, wielded it, and (more often than men) abandoned it. Monter argues that Europe's female kings, who ruled by divine right, experienced no...

Judging the French Reformation: Heresy Trials by Sixteenth-Century Parlements
ISBN: 9780674488601 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This original look at the French Reformation pits immovable object--the French appellate courts or parlements--against irresistible force--the most dynamic forms of the Protestant Reformation. Without the slightest hesitation, the high courts of Renaissance France opposed these religious innovators. By 1540, the French monarchy had largely removed the prosecution of heresy from ecclesiastical courts and handed it to the parlements. Heresy trials and executions escalated dramatically. But within twenty years, the irresistible force had overcome the immovable object: the prosecution of...

Frontiers of Heresy: The Spanish Inquisition from the Basque Lands to Sicily
ISBN: 9780521522595 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Frontiers of Heresy is among the first major English-language contributions to the history of the Spanish Inquisition since Henry Charles Lea completed his classic curvey eighty years ago. Focusing on the lands beyond Castile, Professor Monter analyzes the activities of the Holy Office during an 'Aragonese Century' (1530 1630) when these frontier tribunals were its most active elements. This 'other' Spanish Inquisition virtually ignored converted Jews and their descendants, but brutally harassed Moriscos and immigrant workers from France; it executed nearly as many people for sodomy as for...

Cultural Exchange in Early Modern Europe
ISBN: 9781107412804 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 466 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Cultural exchange, the dynamic give and take between two or more cultures, has become a distinguishing feature of modern Europe. This was already an important feature to the elites of the fifteenth, sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and it played a central role in their fashioning of self. The cultures these elites exchanged and often integrated with their own were both material and immaterial; they included palaces, city-dwellings, paintings, sculptures, ceramics, dresses and jewellery, but also gestures, ways of sitting, standing and walking, and dances. In this innovative and...
