Kurland Unknown - 2008
by Unknown
From the publisher
Das Herzogtum Kurland, 1561 aus Resten des livlndischen Ordensstaates entstanden und 1795 untergegangen, nimmt in seiner Entwicklung - deutscher Herzog und deutscher Adel, lettische Bauernschaft, polnisch-litauischer Lehnsherr und russische Zaren als Garanten der Adelsprivilegien - unter den Territorialherrschaften der Frhen Neuzeit eine Sonderstellung ein. Der Kampf um die Vorherrschaft zwischen Herzog und Ritterschaft, der von den rivalisierenden Nachbarmchten Schweden, Polen-Litauen und Russland stark beeinflusst wurde, prgte die gesamte Geschichte des Herzogtums. Er sucht in der deutschen Verfassungsgeschichte seinesgleichen, doch hat er in der jngeren Diskussion zum Absolutismus kaum Beachtung gefunden. Die vorliegende Edition schwer zugnglicher Quellen erffnet einen neuen Zugang zur Geschichte dieses ebenso eigenartigen wie interessanten Herzogtums.

Book Conditions Explained
Biblio’s Book Conditions
-
As NewThe book is pristine and free of any defects, in the same condition as when it was first newly published.
-
Fine (F)A book in fine condition exhibits no flaws. A fine condition book closely approaches As New condition, but may lack the crispness of an uncirculated, unopened volume.
-
Near Fine (NrFine or NF)Almost perfect, but not quite fine. Any defect outside of shelf-wear should be noted.
-
Very Good (VG)A used book that does show some small signs of wear - but no tears - on either binding or paper. Very good items should not have writing or highlighting.
-
Good (G or Gd.)The average used and worn book that has all pages or leaves present. ‘Good’ items often include writing and highlighting and may be ex-library. Any defects should be noted. The oft-repeated aphorism in the book collecting world is “good isn’t very good.”
-
FairIt is best to assume that a “fair” book is in rough shape but still readable.
-
Poor (P)A book with significant wear and faults. A poor condition book can still make a good reading copy but is generally not collectible unless the item is very scarce. Any missing pages must be specifically noted.
