About This Book

The work surveys political, military, and religious developments across sixteenth-century Europe (1494–1598), tracing the Italian Wars and the Habsburg–Valois rivalry, the rise of a dominant imperial monarchy, and shifting alliances that produce major treaties. It examines internal changes in France, Spain, Germany, and Italian city-states, the spread of Protestant reform and the Catholic Counter-Reformation, and the civil and international conflicts that followed, including the Dutch revolt and French religious wars. Appendices outline constitutional arrangements in France and Florence, while maps and bibliography accompany a chronological, analytical account of institutions, diplomacy, warfare, and confessional change.
