About this product

Product Information

Now reissued in its second edition, this survey gives coverage of both foreign and domestic policy in the golden age of imperial Spain. Far from a dynamic and predatory superpower, however, Henry Kamen shows us a poor nation thrust reluctantly into an imperial role for which she was never fully equipped, and which provoked deep internal divisions and conflicts. It examines not only the politics of Spain, but also the society and economy, and her religion and culture. This edition has been revised, updated and expanded (the account of the last days of the Habsburg regime has been considerably amplified, for example). It also pays particular attention to the latest research of Spanish, French, British and American scholars.
