Sobre el libro...
This book, edited by Enrique García Hernán and Ryszard Skowron, offers a rare opportunity to learn more about relatively little known material and immaterial bonds in the Modern Ages between such apparently distant countries as Spain, Poland and Ireland. By putting a special stress on migrations (religious, economic, military etc.) and their consequences on the cultures of the respective countries, it also becomes an interesting contribution to the contemporary debate on the advantages and threats of this phenomenon.

Ambassador of Poland to Spain
Enrique García Hernán and Ryszard Skowron have brought together a fascinating collection of writings on the myriad links between Spain and northern Europe in the Early Modern period, ranging from Ireland in the west to Poland and the Hanseatic states in the east. The volume provides a welcome addition to our understanding of the historic ties that continue to bind our peoples and the rich and ongoing affinity between Spain,Ireland and Poland.
