In ten chapters, partly case-studies, this monograph analyzes the (new) ways in which cultural manifestations were used to create the necessary preconditions for (religious) policy and power in the Rome of Urban VIII (1623-1644). It was the intensified interaction between culture and power-politics that created what we now call ‘the Baroque’. Based on a rich variety of, hitherto largely unexplored, primary sources, the book addresses the basic issues of papal power in the post-Tridentine period. It does not study actual papal politics, but rather the cultural forms that were essential to the representation and legitimatization of the papacy’s power, both secular and religious and that (co-)determined the effectiveness of papal policy. Precisely during Urban’s long pontificate, the manifold, always imaginative and often unexpected uses of power representation became, in the end, not so much a series of cultural forms as, in a sense, the structure of early modern (Roman) society.

From ancient Babylonian law codes to Pope Urban II's call to crusade in 1095, and from Michelangelo on Italian art in 1538 to Sting's lyrics in the twentieth century, the cultural history of Europe is a diverse and wide-ranging subject. This exceptional text expertly condenses it, explains it and introduces it to the reader in a thorough and highly readable style. Presented chronologically, "Europe : a cultural history" examines the many cultural building blocks of Europe, their importance in the continent’s cultural identity, and how the perception of Europe has changed over the centuries. Starting with the beginnings of agricultural society and ending with the mass culture of the early twenty-first century, the book uses literature, art, science, technology and music to examine Europe’s cultural history in terms of continuity and change. Rietbergen looks at how societies developed new ways of surviving, believing, consuming and communicating throughout the period. His book is distinctive in paying particular attention to the impact of other cultures on Europe, from its Celtic and German origins, to the influence of the Greeks and the Romans, the role of Christianity, and the modern day contact with Islam. The text has been thoroughly revised for the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, and with a wide selection of excerpts to support the arguments, lyrics from contemporary songs and many illustrations, this book is an excellent student resource for both historical and cultural studies.
