Based on the papers of an international conference, this book deals
with a turning-point in European history - the dramatic struggle
between the Protestant Reformation and the Catholic
counter-Reformation, and between princely rulers and landed nobles
in 16th- and 17th-century central and eastern Europe. It brings
together the results of the latest research by leading scholars
from North America and Europe, much of it otherwise unavailable in
English; and it throws new light on the victory of the Church and
the rulers over Protestantism and the nobility which, leading to
the growth of princely absolutions, had such profound long-term
consequences.;Other titles in the series include "Studies in the
Russian Economy Before 1914", "Perspectives on Literature and
Society in Eastern and Western Europe" and "The Movement for Greek
Independence, 1770-1821: A Collection of Documents".
