This series marks a major initiative in European history publishing aimed primarily, though not exclusively, at an undergraduate audience. It encompasses a wide variety of books on aspects of European history since 1500, with particular emphasis on France and Germany, although no country is excluded and a special effort made to cover previously neglected areas, such as Scandinavia, Eastern Europe and Southern Europe.
The series includes political accounts and broad thematic treatments, both of a comparative kind and studies of a single country, and lays particular emphasis on a social and cultural history where this opens up fruitful new ways of examining the past. The aim of the series is to make available a wide range of titles in areas where there is now an obvious gap or where the existing historical literature is out of date or narrowly focused. The series also includes translations of important books published elsewhere in Europe.
Interest in European affairs and history has never been greater; European Studies helps make that European heritage closer, richer and more comprehensible.
