Inhoud

Tells the story of the formation of a new state in north-western Europe and the rise of the Burgundian house in the fifteenth century, and how a power-hungry dynasty was able to reach a new equilibrium with the elites. The outcome had the lasting effect of laying the foundation for the modern states of Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxemburg.

Tells the story of the rise of the House of Burgundy in the late fourteenth and the fifteenth centuries in the Netherlands

Shows how these developments laid the foundation for the modern states of the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxemburg

Displays the development of power relations and institutions in the field of tension between ruler and subject, between centralisation and particularism

Offers a highly original approach to the study of the Burgundian expansion in the Netherlands as a bottom-up as well as a top-down enterprise
