Informácie o knihe
A EuropeNow Editor's PickA Choice Outstanding Academic Title of the Year",Pieter M. Judson's book informs and stimulates. If his account of Habsburg achievements, especially in the 18th century, is rather starry-eyed, it is a welcome corrective to the black legend usually presented.Lucid, elegant, full of surprising and illuminating details, it can be warmly recommended to anyone with an interest in modern European history.",-Tim Blanning, Wall Street Journal",This is an engaging reappraisal of the empire whose legacy, a century after its collapse in 1918, still resonates across the nation-states that replaced it in central Europe. Judson rejects conventional depictions of the Habsburg empire as a hopelessly dysfunctional assemblage of squabbling nationalities and stresses its achievements in law, administration, science and the arts.",-Tony Barber, Financial Times",Spectacularly revisionist... Judson argues that...the empire was a force for progress and modernity...This is a bold and refreshing book... Judson does much to destroy the picture of an ossified regime and state.",-A. W.Purdue, Times Higher Education",Judson's reflections on nations, states and institutions are of broader interest, not least in the current debate on the future of the European Union after Brexit.",-Annabelle Chapman, Prospect
