Absolutism - The Beginnings

Next week will be looking at the rise of Absolutism and Constitutionalism in Europe.

On Monday we will be looking at the change in monarchies power and structure from pre-Thirty Years' War to the beginning of Absolutism. Make sure you have watched the embedded video and read pp. 427-436

On Tuesday, we will be having a Socratic Seminar over the rise and influence of Louis XIV power in Europe. You received the packet of articles, question form, and rubric today in class. Be prepared! There will be a video on Louis XIV by Monday as well (hint: I would watch it before the Socratic).
