What is Religion and Politics in German History : From the Beginnings to the French Revolution about?

Eyck begins his analysis with an examination of Roman and Christian influences on the Germanic peoples, particularly the Franks, and moves on to the struggle between emperors who claimed certain powers over the Church, and popes who, as successors to St Peter, asserted their authority over rulers, including their secular functions. He analyses the negative effect of this conflict on the capability of Germans to form a nation, which was reinforced by the religious divisions resulting from Reformation and Counter-Reformation
