Description
The Thirty Years' War is the defining event of the 17th century. This volume brings together three studies on the subject from the pen of Gerhard Fritz. The first contribution is a qualitative and quantitative socio-historical analysis of the Württemberg military of the 1620s. In the second study, Fritz examines how the experience of war destroyed the firmly established world view. Many people no longer believed that war was a punishment from God, but rather the work of politicians addicted to glory.
Religious convictions crumbled and not a few people began to doubt the existence of God. In the third contribution, the author shows oppressive parallels between the prohibitions on thought and speech of the 16th and 17th centuries and the present day, whereby the topic appears in an unexpectedly current light.
