'This is probably the best book ever written on the Habsburgs in any language, certainly the best I have ever read ... Students, scholars and the general reader will never find a better guide to Habsburg history' Alan Sked, Times Literary Supplement In The Habsburgs, Martyn Rady tells the epic story of a dynasty and the world it built - and then lost - over nearly a millennium. From modest origins, the Habsburgs grew in power to gain control of the Holy Roman Empire in the fifteenth century. Then, in just a few decades, their possessions rapidly expanded to take in a large part of Europe stretching from Hungary to Spain, and from the Far East to the New World. The family continued to dominate Central Europe until the catastrophe of the First World War. With its seemingly disorganized mass of large and small territories, its tangle of laws and privileges and its medley of languages, the Habsburg Empire has always appeared haphazard and incomplete. But here Martyn Rady shows the reasons for the family's incredible endurance, driven by the belief that they were destined to rule the world as defenders of the Roman Catholic Church, guarantors of peace and patrons of learning. The Habsburg emperors were themselves absurdly varied in their characters - from warlords to contemplatives, from clever to stupid, from idle to frenzied - but all driven by the same sense of family mission. Scattered around the world, countless buildings, institutions and works of art continue to bear witness to their overwhelming impact. The Habsburgs is the definitive history of a remarkable dynasty that, for better or worse, shaped Europe and the world.

Hoe beleefden gewone mensen de grote wereld toen de Habsburgse vorsten in onze contreien regeerden, van Keizer Karel in 1500 tot de Oostenrijkse keizer Jozef ii rond 1800? Deze weinig bekende geschiedenis speelt zich af buiten onze landsgrenzen en over de oceanen, maar ook thuis. We volgen de Nederlanders op hun tochten en ontdekken hoe ze suikermolens lieten draaien in Brazilië, diamanten kochten in India, in de clinch geraakten met lokale priesters in Congo en gevangengenomen werden door piraten. We ontmoeten Afrikaanse tot slaaf gemaakte huisbediendes, krijgen Chinese gezanten op bezoek, zien Turkse snorren die ons angst inboezemden en proeven lekkere koffie en thee van overzee. We waren bang voor wat van buitenaf kwam, maar leerden het ook te omarmen. We hadden angst wanneer we zelf vertrokken, maar slaagden erin die te overwinnen. Gewone mensen waren de radertjes van de globalisering in die periode. Het zijn zij die op de voorgrond treden in deze alternatieve geschiedenis. Het waren hun gevoelens die hen gidsten om hun en onze wereld te veranderen.

De complete geschiedenis van een van de machtigste dynastieën aller tijden 'Definitief standaardwerk.' ●●●●● NRC Handelsblad 'Een boeiend "rise and fall"-verhaal.' ⋆⋆⋆⋆ De Standaard De geschiedenis van Europa is voor een groot deel bepaald door de leden van één eeuwenoud geslacht: het huis Habsburg. In De Habsburgers vertelt historicus Martyn Rady het epische verhaal van een bijna duizend jaar durende dynastie en de schepping – en ineenstorting – van een oppermachtig rijk. Van een zeer bescheiden hertogdom groeide het huis Habsburg uit tot de belangrijkste heersende macht van Europa nadat in de vijftiende eeuw de heerschappij over het Heilige Roomse Rijk was verworven. Slechts enkele eeuwen later strekte het Habsburgse Rijk zich uit over een groot deel van Europa, van Hongarije tot Spanje, en delen van de Nieuwe Wereld en het Verre Oosten. De Habsburgers domineerden Centraal-Europa zelfs tot aan het begin van de twintigste eeuw. Desondanks omschrijven historici de Habsburgers vaak als de heersers van een wankel en onsamenhangend keizerrijk. Rady bewijst het tegendeel en toont ons hoe de Habsburgers zichzelf beschouwden als beschermers van de Rooms-Katholieke Kerk, beschermheiligen van de wetenschap en bewakers van de vrede. Het resulteert in een complete geschiedenis van een bijzondere dynastie die Europa én de wereld voor altijd veranderde. 'Een compleet overzicht van de vroegste tot de laatste regerende Habsburger. [...] Een goed verzorgd boek.' – Historiek 'De Habsburgers is meeslepend, kleurrijk en aangrijpend, maar ook nauwkeurig, wetenschappelijk en gezaghebbend … Geschiedenis op een epische schaal!' – Simon Sebag Montefiore

Adriaan Reland (1676-1718), Arabist, Cartographer, Antiquarian and Scholar of Comparative Religion covers the intellectual achievements of a remarkable man: Adriaan Reland, professor of Oriental languages (1701) and Hebrew Antiquities (1713) at the University of Utrecht from 1701 to 1718. Although he never travelled beyond the borders of his home country, he had an astonishingly broad worldview. The contributions in this volume illuminate Reland’s many accomplishments and follow his scholarly trajectory as an Orientalist, a linguist, a cartographer, a poet, and a historian of comparative religions. Reland, although a devout Protestant, believed that religions should be examined objectively on their own terms with the help of reliable and authentic documents, which would dispel the prejudices of the past.
