Description: The Holy Roman Empire by Peter H. Wilson Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description An astonishing, essential book on what was for ten centuries Europes largest state - the Holy Roman EmpireA great, sprawling, ancient and unique entity, the Holy Roman Empire, from its founding by Charlemagne to its destruction by Napoleon a millennium later, formed the heart of Europe. It was a great engine for inventions and ideas, it was the origin of many modern European states, from Germany to the Czech Republic, its relations with Italy, France and Poland dictated the course of countless wars - indeed, European history as a whole makes no sense without it.In this strikingly ambitious book, Peter H. Wilson explains how the empire worked. It is not a chronological history, but an attempt to convey to readers the Empires unique nature, why it was so important and how it changed over its existence. The result is a tour de force - a book that raises countless questions about the nature of political and military power, about diplomacy and the nature of European civilization and about the legacy of the empire, which has continued to haunt its offspring, from imperial and Nazi Germany to the European Union. Author Biography Peter H. Wilson is the author of the highly acclaimed Europes Tragedy- A New History of the Thirty Years War (2009). He is the Chichele Professor of the History of War at the University of Oxford. Details ISBN 014104747X ISBN-13 9780141047478 Title The Holy Roman Empire Author Peter H.
