From the rear cover: "Limage de lEurope classique que nous donne Pierre Chaunu diffère sensiblement des schémas traditionnels, et les firgures familières des souverains, des hommes politiques et des militaires sestompent un peu à lhorizon dune époque étudiée avant tout dans ses structures profondes.
"Ce livre est axé tout entier sur lopposition entire le conservatisme tenace dune civilisation matérielle étonnamment stable et lexplosion révolutionnaire des oeuvres de lesprit, de la science et de la technique. Cest un moment décisif de la construction du monde moderne qui nous est présenté ice avec le caractère frémissant et tendu qui convient aux grandes époques vécues par lhumanité."
