In the early 1300s instabilities threatened to undermine Spain's basic social, economic, political, and cultural structures. This text focuses on the crises of Spain in the late middle ages, ranging from plague and famine to violence and civil war. It considers the early transformations that underpinned the country's later successes and describes resolutions to the country's hardships brought about by the reforms of the Catholic Monarchs, Ferdinand and Isabella, in the late 1470s. The book examines the administrative changes and cultural revival that readied Spain for the opportunities and challenges of the oncoming early modern Age of Discovery. 410 0$aHistory of Spain. 607 $aSpain$xHistory$y711-1516 608 $aElectronic books. 676 $a946/.02 686 $a15.70$2bcl 700 $aRuiz$b Teofilo F.$f1943-$0197286 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910145746203321 996 $aSpain's centuries of crisis$91973930 997 $aUNINA
