The Swiss and their Neighbours, 1460-1560

The Swiss and their Neighbours, 1460-1560

Descriere

Much of early-modern Europe was built up gradually by a series of leagues and alliances, and this volume seeks to demonstrate that the Swiss Confederation was one such composite polity, surviving until the end of the ancien regime by accommodating and absorbing internal conflicts through a sense of common identity and mutual obligation.
