The Encyclopedia of Early Modern History? to be published in 15 volumes? offers 400 years of early modern history in one work. Experts from all over the world have joined in a presentation of the scholarship on the great era between the mid-15th to the mid-19th centuries. The perspective is European. That does not mean, however, that the view on the rest of the world is blocked. On the contrary: the multifaceted interrelatedness of European and other cultures is scrutinized extensively. 0Also available online, the Encyclopedia of Early Modern History addresses major historical questions: 0- which ideas, inventions, and events changed people?s lives? 0- in which ways did living conditions change? 0- how do political, social, and economic developments interlock? 0- which major cultural currents have begun to become apparent? 0- how did historical interpretation of certain phenomena change? 0The individual articles are connected to one another as in a web of red threads. The reader who follows the threads will keep coming upon new and unexpected contexts and links.
