About the Book

English summary: The House of Bourbon acceded to the French throne with Henry the IV in 1589 and occupied it with the exception of the year 1792 to 1814/15 until 1848. They can be counted amongst Europe's most important ruling dynasties. The three volume series analyses their activity on the field of domestic, economic, financial, social and foreign policy. The effects in the areas of court and cultural life, art, literature, painting, music and architecture are also described. Thus the work can be viewed as a history of France under the Bourbon rule. The first volume contains the description of the rise of the lords of bourbon until obtaining the crown of Navarra in 1555. The period of religious and civil war in the 16th century, the St. Bartholomew Day's Massacre 1572, the edict of Nantes as well as the domestic and foreign policy projects of Henry IV up to his death 1610 are presented. Central to the information on Louis XIII are the difficulties and conflicts of the 30 Years-War. Finally the sun king Louis XIV (1643 - 1715), his method of governing, his foreign policy and many wars, the functions of his court as instruments of power and France's position within Europe are presented. German description: Die Bourbonen, die 1589 mit Heinrich IV. auf den franzosischen Konigsthron gelangten und diesen - abgesehen von den Jahren 1792 bis 1814/15 - bis zu ihrem Sturz 1848 innehatten, zahlen mit den Habsburgern und den Hohenzollern zu den in vieler Hinsicht herausragenden Herrscherdynastien Europas. Das dreibandige Werk bietet nicht nur die biographisch akzentuierte Geschichte der franzosischen Bourbonenkonige und der wichtigsten Mitglieder der Dynastie, sondern auch eine Analyse des Agierens dieser Monarchen auf den Feldern der Innen-, Wirtschafts-, Finanz-, Sozial- und Aussenpolitik sowie ihres Wirkens in den Bereichen des hofischen und kulturellen Lebens, der Kunst, Literatur, Malerei, Musik und Architektur. Insofern ist dieses Werk auch eine Geschichte Frankreichs unter den Bourbonen. Im zweiten Band gelingt dem Autor eine beeindruckende Annaherung an die komplexe und schwierige Personlichkeit Ludwigs XV. (1715-1774). Die sich bereits unter seiner Herrschaft manifestierenden Symptome der Krise von Staat und Gesellschaft werden herausgearbeitet, mit denen sich sein Nachfolger Ludwig XVI. (1774-1789/92) in wachsendem Masse konfrontiert sah und mit denen er schliesslich uberfordert war. Mit grosser Sachkenntnis verfolgt der Autor dessen letztlich gescheiterte Bemuhungen, dem zunachst schleichenden, dann aber immer offenkundiger werdenden Verfall der Autoritat der Krone und ihrer Regierung mit nicht konsequent betriebenen Reformen entgegenzuwirken, was schliesslich zum Niedergang des Konigtums der Bourbonen im Strudel der Revolution fuhrte.
