Филипп II, мифы и реальность

В мировой литературе Филипп Второй Испанский представляется настоящим королем-пауком, плетущим свои сети из глубин Эскориала и являющимся врагом всего живого, естественного, спонтанного. Британский историк Генри Кэймен разрушает этот устоявшийся образ и являет читателю реального Филиппа Второго.
