Europe in Crisis provides an authoritative account of the tumultuous first half of the seventeenth century. During this period the continent was embroiled in revolution, civil war, and complex international conflicts. The author skillfully illuminates the period, placing the upheavals within the context of world experience and providing a clear narrative account of the political, social, economic, and intellectual developments which brought so much of Europe to the edge of chaos during the 1640s.The book examines 3 crucial conflicts: the struggle of Habsburg Spain with France and the Dutch Republic, the rivalry of Sweden and Poland, which eventually ruined Denmark and Russia, and the confrontation between the Austrian Habsburgs and the estates of their hereditary provinces, which ultimately escalated into the Thirty Years' War. The new edition of this classic has been revised throughout and includes an updated bibliography.
