Opening at the height of the Renaissance, the book chronicles the
dawning of a new age on the European continent. Koenigsberger
paints a detailed picture of the Reformation and its significance
as increasingly powerful nations began to intrude on their
subjects' public and private lives. He gives account of the
Counter-Reformation and the political and economic crisis that
accompanied it, and an in-depth discussion of the age of Louis XIV
and the balance of power in Europe. A full chapter addresses the
Scientific Revolution and the Enlightenment, and throughout
attention is given to social, cultural and intellectual
developments. The book concludes with a summary of the situation
throughout Europe on the eve of the French Revolution, and the
dramatic changes brought about by the Industrial Revolution and the
beginnings of a consumer society.
