A vivid and extraordinarily wide-ranging collection of writings by
an eminent historian of Spain and its empire When J. H. Elliott
published Spain and Its World, 1500-1700 some twenty years ago, one
of many enthusiasts declared, "For anyone interested in the history
of empire, of Europe and of Spain, here is a book to keep within
reach, to read, to study and to enjoy" (Times Literary Supplement).
Since then Elliott has continued to explore the history of Spain
and the Hispanic world with originality and insight, producing some
of the most influential work in the field. In this new volume he
gathers writings that reflect his recent research and thinking on
politics, art, culture, and ideas in Europe and the colonial worlds
between 1500 and 1800. The volume includes fourteen essays,
lectures, and articles of remarkable breadth and freshness, written
with Elliott's characteristic brio. It includes an unpublished
lecture in honor of the late Hugh Trevor-Roper. Organized around
three themes-early modern Europe, European overseas expansion, and
the works and historical context of El Greco, Velazquez, Rubens,
and Van Dyck-the book offers a rich survey of the themes at the
heart of Elliott's interests throughout a career distinguished by
excellence and innovation.
