Description

This user-friendly encyclopedia attempts to bridge "the gap between researchers and nonspecialist readers" in covering the early modern era. Another goal, as the introduction explains, was to include subject areas often ignored until recently - women's roles, Judaism, Islam, Eastern Europe, Africa, and "how ordinary Europeans lived and thought. This is a fine set, from its beautiful physical appearance to the scope and depth of its coverage. Recommended for academic and large public libraries.
