The Other Prussia : Royal Prussia, Poland and Liberty, 1569–1772

Omtale

This book focuses on the history of Royal Prussia - the 'other Prussia' - which was part of the Polish state from 1454 to 1793. Analysing the rivalry between the multi national, constitutionalist Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and its dynastic neighbour Brandenburg-Prussia, it contributes to our understanding of nation-building and the formation of national identity.
