Hungary Between Two Empires 1526–1711

Book Description
The Hungarian defeat to the Ottoman army at the pivotal Battle of Mohács in 1526 led to the division of the Kingdom of Hungary into three parts, altering both the shape and the ethnic composition of Central Europe for centuries to come. Hungary thus became a battleground between the Ottoman and Habsburg empires. In this sweeping historical survey, Géza Pálffy takes readers through a crucial period of upheaval and revolution in Hungary, which had been the site of a flowering of economic, cultural, and intellectual progress—but battles with the Ottomans lead to over a century of war and devastation. Pálffy explores Hungary's role as both a borderland and a theater of war through the turn of the 18th century. In this way, Hungary became a crucially important field on which key debates over religion, government, law, and monarchy played out. Reflecting 25 years of archival research and presented here in English for the first time, Hungary between Two Empires 1526–1711 offers a fresh and thorough exploration of this key moment in Hungarian history and, in turn, the creation of a modern Europe.

Book Description
Situated on both banks of the Danube, Budapest unites the hills of Buda and the flat area of Pest. Although it was the site of a Roman outpost in the first century, the city was not created until 1873, when the towns of Obuda, Pest and Buda were joined. The united city grew quickly as one of the two capitals of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy. Budapest only became the capital of Hungary when the country was proclaimed a republic in 1946. The city was the centre of a popular uprising against the Hungarian Communist regime in 1956. Today, about 2 million people, representing 20% of Hungary's population, live in this cultural, political, intellectual and commercial centre.
