  2. Tutorial 5 6 October 2011 Sourcebook, documents 31-33, 41-65 REMINDER: Preliminary Bibliographies are due in class today!

  3. Questions • What do the assigned documents tell you about the Thirty Years War, of the functioning of individual states, and the relationship among states? • Do the assigned documents support or challenge Wilson’s argument about the Thirty Years War? • Why were Spain and the Dutch Republic prepared to discontinue the Twelve Years Truce and resume fighting? What do you think of Philip IV’s assessment of Spain’s strength? • What was the objective of the Treaty of the Hague (1625)? Was the satire of it justified?

  4. Questions • What can we learn from document 43? • What did the Peace of Lübeck (1629) stipulate? • What do documents 44, 47-60 tell you about Wallenstein, Ferdinand II, and their relationship? Consider their military and political objectives. • Wilson described the Edict of Restitution (1629) as a “blunder of the first order” (Europe’s Tragedy, p. 453). Does your reading of documents 62-65 confirm this assessment?
