About this listen

 Dive into The Cambridge Modern History, a comprehensive exploration of global history from 1450 to 1910, presented in 14 volumes published between 1902 and 1912. Originally envisioned by Lord Acton as a testament to objective scholarship, this volume focuses on the Reformation, tracing its profound impact across Europe. As the narrative shifts from Italy to Germany and Central Europe, Geneva emerges as a central hub of revolutionary religious thought, influenced by its neighboring cities like Zurich and Basel, along with the free imperial cities of southern Germany. This dynamic period also sees the broader European landscape expand to include Scotland, Scandinavia, and Poland, while the Ottoman threat, though significant, begins to wane. Experience the rich tapestry of this transformative era, narrated by Kazbek.
