Additional Reading
Robert Pick, Empress Maria Theresa (1966), covers her life up to 1757 and contains a valuable bibliography. Sentimental biographies abound: J.F. Bright, Maria Theresa (1897), a primarily diplomatic study, is useful. By far the most judicial appraisal of Maria Theresa’s domestic policies is to be found in C.A. Macartney, The Habsburg Empire 1790–1918 (1968). Ernst Wangermann, The Austrian Achievement, 1700–1800 (1973), offers the best overview of the great changes within the Habsburg monarchy in the 18th century.
