Omtale

Drawing on a wealth of manuscript and primary sources from across Europe, Ranke's history narrates and contextualises the fortunes of the papacy in one of its most tumultuous eras. Volume 3 constitutes the final chapter in Ranke's effort to 'trace a portion of the world's history' through the papacy's transformations.
