Geoffrey Parker

4.9/5 (24760 ratings)

Description:Professor Parker's lectures continue Baylor's tradition of publishing first-rate scholarly presentations of some of the world's finest historians. Often in the past, the Edmondson Lectures have tended to fall into one of two distinct categories: they either conveyed the results of recent historical research, or they constituted a synthesis of a scholar's lifetime work on a subject of major historical importance. Professor Parker's lectures combine the two approaches in a masterful way as he analyzes the manner in which Philip II of Spain managed his global Empire while being drivenand tragically handicappedby an overpowering messianic complex. Parker's lectures combine the most profound insights with a lucidity of presentation.About the Author:Geoffrey Parker is the Andreas Dorpalen Professor of History at Ohio State University. A graduate of Cambridge University (B.A., M.A., and Ph.D.), Parker has taught at St. Andrews University, the University of Illinois, and Yale University.
