دانلود کتاب Great events from history. The Renaissance & Early Modem Era 1454 -1600. V.1-2

Great Events from History: The Renaissance & Early Modern Era, 1454-1600 is the third installment in the ongoing Great Events from History series, which was initiated in 2004 with the two-volume Great Events from History: The Ancient World, Prehistory-476. The series is projected to extend to the present day: In addition to the current volumes covering the Renaissance and early modem period, subsequent volumes will address The Seventeenth Century, The Eighteenth Century, The Nineteenth Century, and The Twentieth Century.
Expanded Coverage
Like the rest of the series, the current volumes represent both a revision and a significant expansion of the twelve-volume Great Events from History (1972-1980), incorporating essays from the Chronology of European History: 15,000 B.C. to 1997 (3 vols., 1997), Great Events from History: North American Series, Revised Edition (4 vols., 1997), and Great Events from History: Modern European Series (3 vols., 1973).
Each installment in the new series is being enlarged with a significant amount of new material—often more than half the original contents. The Renaissance & Early Modern Era joins 242 completely new essays—commissioned especially for the new series and appearing for the first time—to 88 previously published core entries. In addition, the new series features a new page design, expanded and updated bibliographies, internal and external cross-references, a section containing maps of the world during the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, new appendices and indexes, plus numerous sidebars, maps, and illustrations throughout.
