Absolutism and Society in Seventeenth-Century France: State Power and Provincial Aristocracy in Languedoc
ISBN: 9780521367820 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 396 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Why was Louis XIV successful in pacifying the same aristocrats who had been troublesome for Richelieu and Mazarin? What role did absolutism play in reinforcing or changing the traditional social system in seventeenth-century France? This analysis of the provincial reality of absolutism argues that the answers to these questions lie in the relationship between the regional aristocracy and the crown. Starting with a critical examination of current approaches to state and society by institutional, social "Annales," and Marxist historians, the author calls for a new class analysis based on the...

The Ottoman Empire and Early Modern Europe
ISBN: 9780521452809 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Despite the fact that its capital city and over one third of its territory was within the continent of Europe, the Ottoman Empire has consistently been regarded as a place apart, inextricably divided from the West by differences of culture and religion. A perception of its militarism, its barbarism, its tyranny, the sexual appetites of its rulers and its pervasive exoticism has led historians to measure the Ottoman world against a western standard and find it lacking. In recent decades, a dynamic and convincing scholarship has emerged that seeks to comprehend and, in the process, to...

Poverty and Deviance in Early Modern Europe
ISBN: 9780521423229 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This study provides an accessible and authoritative account of poverty and deviance during the early modern period, informed by those new perspectives on the role of the poor themselves in the provision of welfare services characteristic of much recent social history. Contrary to the once-traditional historical emphasis on the ameliorative role of individual reformers, Professor JUtte's account looks much more closely at the poor themselves, and the complex network of social and communal relationships they inhabited.
