The Shortest History of Europe by John Hirst
Requirements: .ePUB Reader, 2.01 MB, Version: Retail
Overview: Describing the birth of European civilisation from an unlikely mixture of three elements – classical learning, Christianity and German warrior culture – The Shortest History of Europe begins with a rapid historical overview from the ancient Greeks to the dawn of the modern era. In each later chapter, the author returns to explore in more detail one aspect of Europe’s remarkable history: its political evolution; its linguistic boundaries and their defining influence; the crucial role played by power struggles between Pope and Emperor; and the great invasions and conquests that have transformed the continent. Along the way we meet a cast of highly distinctive characters, from pious knights to belligerent popes, from German romantics spouting folklore to French revolutionaries imitating their Roman heroes.
