DAY’S THAT SHOOK THE WORLD:Our children will inherit a legacy from a century of dramatic change – a legacy generated by a hundred years of technological and political hyperactivity. The beneficiaries of this legacy will undoubtedly gain from the technological revolution, but they will also have to endure the consequences of our mistakes and follies. Encyclopedia of the 20th Century documents the political turmoil, horrors of war, medical breakthroughs, scientific advancements and social upheaval that made this century one of the most critical and turbulent periods

This major survey of political life in late medieval Europe provides a framework for understanding the developments that shaped this turbulent period. Rather than emphasising crisis, decline, disorder or the birth of the modern state, this account centres on the mixed results of political and governmental growth across the continent. The age of the Hundred Years War, schism and revolt was also a time of rapid growth in jurisdiction, taxation and representation, of spreading literacy and evolving political technique. This mixture of state formation and political convulsion lay at the heart of the 'making of polities'. Offering a full introduction to political events and processes from the fourteenth century to the sixteenth, this book combines a broad, comparative account with discussion of individual regions and states, including eastern and northern Europe alongside the more familiar west and south.
