解説

Historians a generation ago spoke of "a crisis in early modern nobility" in Europe and assumed a decline which anticipated early collapse. However, scholars today are convinced of the resilience of the nobility in Europe's early modern history and of the consolidation of its power between 1600 and 1800. This collection, covering not only Western Europe but the equally crucial nobilities of Northern, Central and Eastern Europe, reflects their revival of power and their central role played in government, society, culture and even economic activity. The social and ideological basis of their concept of nobility is also discussed. The book is aimed at students, scholars and the general reader alike, and provides the latest historiography and a detailed, enjoyable portrait of the European elite at a watershed and highpoint in its history.
