Geschichte
In 'The Rise of the Dutch Republic' by John Lothrop Motley, readers are taken on a captivating journey through the birth of the great commonwealth that shaped modern times. Motley paints a picture of the Republic as a symbol of organized protest against ecclesiastical tyranny and universal empire, standing as a guard to balance the power among civilized states. The Republic's audacity and genius placed the destiny of Europe in the hands of William the Silent, and eventually, its external system of dependencies and interior combinations became an impregnable barrier against Louis XIV's monarchy. Motley's research is the result of a sincere desire to arrive at the truth, and readers will appreciate the depth of knowledge gained from the works of a wide range of chroniclers and historians, both contemporary and later.
