This translation by Sarah Austin (1793-1867) of German historian Leopold von Ranke''s work contributed significantly to early modern history and historiography. By some accounts ''the best living translator'' of her time, Austin was a member of social circles that included Jeremy Bentham and J. S. Mill. Ranke (1795-1886) worked for most of his life at the University of Berlin, writing several histories covering the fifteenth to seventeenth centuries. Austin''s translation recognises Ranke''s importance to Western historiography: his methodology stressed the centrality of using primary sources and of the historian''s objectivity. Ranke''s history engages with a much wider area than his title suggests; indeed, his subject is ''the struggle between Catholicism and Protestantism, between authority and innovation'', as Austin writes. Volume 1 traces the impact and history of the popes from their ''epochs'' to the sixteenth century. These volumes will be of interest to early modern historians and historiographers alike.
