Description: Four Princes by John Julius Norwich Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Renowned historian John Julius Norwich has created a brilliant portrait of four dynamic rulers--all born in the last decade of the 15th century--who collectively shaped modern Europe and the Middle East Publisher Description Renowned historian John Julius Norwich has crafted a bold tapestry of Europe and the Middle East in the early sixteenth century, when a quartet of legendary rulers--all born within a ten-year period--towered over the era. Francis I of France was the personification of the Renaissance, and a highly influential patron of the arts and education. Henry VIII, who was not expected to inherit the throne but embraced the role with gusto, broke with the Roman Catholic Church and appointed himself head of the Church of England. Charles V, the most powerful and industrious man at the time, was unanimously elected Holy Roman Emperor. Suleiman the Magnificent--who stood apart as a Muslim--brought the Ottoman Empire to its apogee of political, military, and economic power. Against the vibrant background of the Renaissance, these four men collectively shaped the culture, religion, and politics of their respective domains. With remarkable erudition, John Julius Norwich delves into this entertaining and layered history, indelibly depicting four dynamic characters, and how their incredible achievements--and obsessions with one another--changed European history. Author Biography John Julius Norwich is the author of many books, including A History of Venice and Byzantium, as well as the New York Times bestseller Absolute Monarchs: A History of the Papacy.
