Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. La magnitud de las grandes campañas de los tercios en los siglos XVI y XVII nos impide a menudo reparar en las historias vitales de miles de soldados cuyo sacrificio hizo posible la hegemonía europea de los Austrias españoles durante siglo y medio. El segundo volumen de la colección Cuadernos de Historia Militar, Soldados de los Tercios, aproxima al lector a la vertiente humana de los ejércitos de la Monarquía Hispánica, y para ello traza un recorrido minucioso a través de la trayectoria vital y profesional de los soldados del Rey Católico de la juventud hasta la vejez. Las páginas de esta obra coral, que reúne a diez expertos de reconocido prestigio, nos sumergen en la apasionante y sufrida vida de los hombres que con su sangre ampliaron y sustentaron el mayor imperio de la época. El recorrido comienza por el alistamiento en las banderas de los tercios y da paso a los múltiples avatares de una azarosa vida diaria jalonada por ocasionales momentos de ocio, experiencias de combate tan dispares como las grandes batallas, los asedios, las escaramuzas y los peligrosos combates navales, así como episodios de resistencia, insumisión y reivindicación, los motines. Conoceremos también las motivaciones y la mentalidad de aquellos hombres y las expectativas de ascenso y promoción social aparejadas a la profesión militar, sin olvidar la imagen que tenían de sí mismos, asociada con frecuencia a la imagen de bravuconería que la literatura nos ha transmitido acerca de estos hombres, y las trayectorias no menos fascinantes de las mujeres que marcharon junto a los ejércitos a través del «teatro de Marte» europeo. El resultado es un fresco rico y diverso que revela con viveza y profundo calado el rostro humano de la guerra en un periodo histórico fascinante. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Exploring reason of state in a global monarchy, The Power of Necessity examines how thinkers and agents in the Spanish monarchy navigated the tension between political pragmatism and moral-religious principle. This tension lies at the very heart of Counter-Reformation reason of state. Nowhere was the need for pragmatic state management greater than in the overstretched Spanish Empire of the seventeenth century. However, pragmatic politics were problematic for a Catholic monarchy steeped in ideals of justice and divine justifications of power and kingship. Presenting a broad cast of characters from across Europe, and uniting published sources with a wide range of archival material, Lisa Kattenberg shows how non-canonical thinkers and agents confronted the political-moral dilemmas of their age by creatively employing the legitimizing power of necessity. Pioneering new ways of bridging the persistent gap between theory and practice in the history of political thought, she casts fresh light on the struggle to preserve the monarchy in a modernizing world. Lisa Kattenberg is Assistant Professor in Early Modern Intellectual History at the University of Amsterdam. Between 2019 and 2022, she was Research Fellow in History at Gonville and Caius College, University of Cambridge. Her doctoral dissertation, from which she developed this book, was awarded the Keetje Hodshon Award for the best doctoral thesis in history completed at a Dutch university during the past five years by the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences. She has published broadly in Spanish, English and Dutch'--.
