Description
Architect of the Swedish Great Power Era and victor of the Thirty Years' War. Along with Cardinal Richelieu, the Swedish Chancellor Axel Oxenstierna (1583-1654) is considered the most important and influential European statesman of the 17th century. During his 42-year chancellorship, Sweden experienced an unprecedented rise from a peripheral state in northern Europe to a major central European power, one of the guarantor powers of the Peace of Westphalia. After his brilliant biography of Gustav II Adolf, historian Jörg-Peter Findeisen, an excellent expert on Nordic history, now also presents his power-conscious chancellor - a politician who changed Germany more strongly and more lastingly than any German prince of his time.
