TY - GEN TY - GEN T1 - The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, 1733-1795 : light and flame A1 - Butterwick-Pawlikowski, Richard, 1968- kirjoittaja LA - eng PP - New Haven PB - Yale University Press YR - 2020 UL - https://kansalliskirjasto.finna.fi/Record/fikka.5577769 AB - "Richard Butterwick tells the compelling story of the last decades of one of Europe's largest and least understood polities: the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Drawing on the latest research, Butterwick vividly portrays the turbulence the Commonwealth experienced. Far from seeing it as a failed state, he shows the ways in which it overcame the stranglehold of Russia and briefly regained its sovereignty, the crowning success of which took place on 3 May 1791-the passing of the first Constitution of modern Europe."-- SN - 978-0-300-25220-0 kovakantinen KW - Rzeczpospolita Obojga Narodów.
