• State and Nobility in Early Modern Germany: The Knightly Feud in Franconia, 1440-1567(Cambridge Studies in Early Modern History ~Usually Ships Within 2-3 Days
-Hillay Zmora / Hardcover 400 pages / Published March 1998
This book offers a new viewpoint of the history of the German nobility in the early modern period. This viewpoint is that contrary to the prevailing view, the nobility was not in a period of crisis that facilitated the rise of the state. Rather, the nobility underwent a process of social stratification in the wake of the growth of the state. This process led to the formation of an special relationship of wealthy noble families on whose co-operation the state depended. This alliance, and not a presumed partnership between rulers and bourgeoisie, was the driving force in early modern Germany.
