History: Europe 1000-1800

Advertisement

This specialisation focuses on the momentous cultural and political transformations that characterised the period between 1000-1800.

The course allows you to specialise in the history of the Low Countries, which in this period was one of Europe's major commercial, cultural and political hubs. Yet you can also explore the history of other parts of Europe, especially the Habsburg world. Unlike most other Dutch history departments, Leiden offers expertise in British, Iberian and Central European history as well as in the political and cultural history of the Netherlands. You are encouraged to think comparatively about the transformations in politics, culture and religion of this era. The staff runs larger research programmes on issues like feuds and factions, the Burgundian nobility, war memories and identity formation. Many of the courses relate to the research interests of the academic staff. The courses allow you to engage closely with current scholarly debates and offer you a chance to scrutinise new ideas as they are being developed.
