欧洲史:转型时代(约1450—1914)
(uk)norman Davis
"A History of Europe" is the representative work of British historian Norman Davis. It designs a time and space coordinate system for European history, presenting a rare overall historical impression. It combines traditional narrative methods with close-ups, and accommodates various strange things and ideas that are often ignored by serious historians. It has become a valuable and convincing European general history work in recent years. It started with the Renaissance and ended with World War I. The Renaissance shattered the spiritual power of medieval civilization and initiated the process of Europe's transformation into modernity. After the Reformation, the coordination between reason and faith did not appear, and politics entered an era of enlightened autocracy. But enlightened despotism turned out to be a dismal failure. The "Old Regime" founded by King Louis XIV of France, a representative of the enlightened absolutist monarch, ended in a revolution that plunged an entire generation into chaos, war, and disturbing innovation movements. As the revolution subsided, modernization began to take effect, and Europe entered the 19th century with great success. Steam locomotives, gas plants and generators became widely popular. In the 20th century, in a rapidly changing world, people began to realize their own fragility and longed to return to piety and practice. Christian culture was recovering, and missionaries and engineers traveled to every corner of the world...
