Povijest #10: Doba apsolutizma: 17. stoljeće

Deseti svezak edicije Povijest svijeta obrađuje 17. stoljeće, doba apsolutizma i velikih političkih, vjerskih i znanstvenih promjena.

Apsolutizam, oličen u vladavini Luja XIV. u Francuskoj, karakterizira centralizirana vlast i raskoš dvora (Versailles). Tridesetogodišnji rat (1618.–1648.) devastira Europu, mijenjajući ravnotežu snaga Westfalskim mirom (1648.). Engleska doživljava građanski rat i restauraciju monarhije, dok Nizozemska postaje trgovačka sila.

Znanstvena revolucija mijenja svjetonazor: Galilejevi i Newtonovi radovi postavljaju temelje moderne fizike, a Descartes promiče racionalizam. Barokna umjetnost (Bernini, Rubens) odražava dramatičnost i vjerski žar. Kolonijalizam se širi, s europskim silama (Španjolska, Engleska, Francuska) u borbi za prevlast u Americi i Aziji. Osmansko Carstvo, iako snažno, počinje stagnirati nakon neuspjeha kod Beča (1683.).

U hrvatskom kontekstu, knjiga naglašava tursku prijetnju, Zrinsko-Frankopansku urotu (1671.) i borbu protiv Osmanlija. Hrvatske zemlje podijeljene su između Habsburga i Mlečana. Knjiga je bogato ilustrirana, pružajući cjelovit prikaz 17. stoljeća.
