The Republican Alternative seeks to move beyond the mere notion of scholarly inquiry into the republic—the subject of recent rediscovery by political historians interested in Europe’s intellectual heritage—by investigating the practical similarities and differences between two early modern republics, as well as their self-images and interactions during the turbulent seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Among the world’s most economically successful societies, Switzerland and the Netherlands laid much of the foundation for their prosperity during the early modern period discussed here. This volume attempts to clarify the special character of these two countries as they developed, including issues of religious plurality, the republican form of government, and an increasingly commercially-driven agrarian society.

In this volume an international team of scholars builds up a comprehensive analysis of the fiscal history of Europe over six centuries. It forms a fundamental starting-point for an understanding of the distinctiveness of the emerging European states, and highlights the issue of fiscal power as an essential prerequisite for the development of the modern state. The study underlines the importance of technical developments by the state, its capacity to innovate, and, however imperfect the techniques, the greater detail and sophistication of accounting practice towards the end of the period. New taxes had been developed, new wealth had been tapped, new mechanisms of enforcement had been established. In general, these developments were made in western Europe; the lack of progress in some fiscal systems, especially those in eastern Europe, is an issue of historical importance in its own right and lends particular significance to the chapters on Poland and Russia. By the eighteenth century `mountains of debt' and high debt-revenue ratios had become the norm in western Europe, yet in the east only Russia was able to adapt to the western model by 1815. The capacity of governments to borrow, and the interaction of the constraints on borrowing and the power to tax had become the real test of the fiscal powers of the `modern state' by 1800-15.

This is a study of the politics of the pivotal province of Holland and of its role in the political system of the Dutch Republic as a whole in the seventeenth century. It is an original, scholarly, and challenging analysis, which treats the reality of politics from the ground up. J.L. Price explores the politics of the towns of Holland in detail, examines the province's political system, and assesses the ways in which Holland influenced the policies of the Dutch Republic in its Golden Age. Dr Price's novel approach to a complex and important subject sets politics in its economic and social context, and offers valuable insights into the practical politics of the Dutch during the period when they played a major role on the world stage.

Among the most original and exciting features of the Carolingian Renaissance is the reemergence of political poetry and the development of a vital tradition of verse which comments reflectively and contentiously on the course of public events. Peter Godman's analysis focuses on the character of the classical tradition in the early Middle ages--creatively adapted to "barbarian" literary tastes--and the refashioning and invention of poetic form in response to contemporary political affairs.

Das Buch bietet eine neue Untersuchung der monastischen Kultur der Karolingerzeit. Ihre Tragweite wird bei der Behandlung der Themen und Inhalte der Handschriften aus der Bibliothek von Corbie deutlich. Mit der Geschichte der Abtei, ihrer Missionstatigkeit und den entscheidenden Veranderungen der karolingischen Kultur ist auch die Entwicklung des Skriptoriums von Corbie verbunden. Durch ein genaues Studium der Notizen und Randbemerkungen erfahren wir, wie die Handschriften in Corbie gelesen und benutzt wurden. Patristische und klassische Zitate in den Schriften der Autoren, die in Corbie gearbeitet haben, verdeutlichen, auf welche Art und Weise Anspielungen und Anderungen zu charakteristischen Bestandteilen jener Kultur wurden und welche Mittel sie zu ihrer Bewertung bieten. Die Untersuchung endet mit einer detaillierten Beschreibung aller erhaltenen Handschriften der einstigen karolingischen Bibliothek von Corbie. Ein Register erschliesst das Werk.
