Britain and Europe |
| Description: |
Britain & Europe, 1500-1780 explores the history of Britain, emphasizing political relations and important connections between its three kingdoms and the continental powers. Houlbrooke analyzes political and religious events, locating them in the broader picture of the society, economics and culture of the time. |
| Synopsis: |
This book, in addition to examining the political power relations between the three kingdoms and the continent, also explores the story of their development, bringing into play factors such as commercial links, migration of groups, the transmission and adoption of religious beliefs, political ideas, technological innovations and artistic styles. Britain & Europe, 1500-1780 will illustrate, in broad terms, how during this era Britain stepped into a more active role in the traffic of ideas and styles as well as goods. It will comparatively evaluate a range of key institutions in Britain - constitutional, administrative, religious, economical and social - with those of its European counterparts. |
