La monarquía española de los siglos XVI

In the pages of this book, Leopold von Ranke (Wiehe, 1795-Berlin, 1886), the great and now classic master of modern historiography, evokes before us the gigantic creative work of the Spanish monarchy in those 16th and 17th centuries which were so decisive in world history. States, great individualities, are the subjects of political history, in which the existence of peoples is polarised. But not in isolation, nor in themselves, nor only politically, but in involvement with all the other states and with all the facets and nuances of culture. It is not only Spain that lives in this work, but the whole of Europe, which becomes the dynamic action of a new state, the modern state, which is organised and established as it emerges from the medieval period.
