Description
Henry Kamen's new edition of Early Modern European Society explores the profound changes that took place in Europe from the 15th to the 18th century. This period was marked by significant developments in science, religious reform, and the emergence of nation-states.
The book delves into the issues that affected everyday life in early modern Europe, including leisure, work, migration, religion, gender, and discipline. Kamen examines how population change impacted different social groups, such as the aristocracy, bourgeoisie, and poor.
With new and updated material on key topics like gender, religion, and population movement, this third edition provides a comprehensive understanding of early modern European society. The book is richly illustrated and an essential read for anyone interested in this period.
