Download or read book Modern Europe, 1789-1914 written by Sydney Herbert and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-04 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Europe, 1789-1914 The object of this book is to describe the main lines of development pursued in European politics since the beginning of the French Revolution in 1789. To do this on a really adequate scale would require a work of immensely greater dimensions, and I have attempted no more than an introductory sketch. One result of the Great War has been that a very large number of people is seeking, for the first time, seriously to understand what are called "foreign affairs," the relations in which England stands to other States, and the causes which have helped to produce the present world-convulsion. It is a commonplace that the causes which bring states to hostility or friendship can only be understood when something is known of their respective histories, of the manner of their growth, and of the forces which have conditioned that growth. I have tried, therefore, to produce a book which will assist such students as I have described to gain a foundation of knowledge upon which they can build by further studies. The modesty of my purpose has conditioned the method pursued in writing the book. I have consistently endeavoured to show how the internal histories of the European States have affected their external relations, and how these in turn have influenced domestic development.

Book Synopsis Modern Europe, 1789-1914 (Classic Reprint) by : Sydney Herbert
Download or read book Modern Europe, 1789-1914 (Classic Reprint) written by Sydney Herbert and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-23 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Europe, 1789-1914 The last two chapters, dealing, as they do, with diplo matic history since the Treaty of Berlin, are outlines only. So many of the events which have occurred since that date are still shrouded in mystery that it would have been dangerous for me to have attempted more. There is so much that we do not know - the inner history of the F ranco Russian Alliance, the degree and extent to which German diplomacy was responsible for the greco-turkish War, the real origins of the Balkan League. Much secret history has been revealed since August 1914, but the whole truth about these, and many other matters, is hardly likely to be known to our generation. I desire to acknowledge my indebtedness to my friend, Mr. A. E. Zimmern, who has read the whole work in manu script, and to Lieut. Cyril Burton, who gave me many valuable suggestions for the first book. Their kindness has been of the greatest possible assistance to me. I cannot forbear also to express my gratitude for the 'sympathetic encouragement I have received from my publishers.

Download or read book Ireland written by Paul Bew and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-08-16 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The French revolution had an electrifying impact on Irish society. The 1790s saw the birth of modern Irish republicanism and Orangeism, whose antagonism remains a defining feature of Irish political life. The 1790s also saw the birth of a new approach to Ireland within important elements of the British political elite, men like Pitt and Castlereagh. Strongly influenced by Edmund Burke, they argued that Britain's strategic interests were best served by a policy of catholic emancipation and political integration in Ireland. Britain's failure to achieve this objective, dramatised by the horrifying tragedy of the Irish famine of 1846-50, in which a million Irish died, set the context for the emergence of a popular mass nationalism, expressed in the Fenian, Parnell, and Sinn Fein movements, which eventually expelled Britain from the greater part of the island. This book reassesses all the key leaders of Irish nationalism - Tone, O'Connell, Butt, Parnell, Collins, and de Valera - alongside key British political leaders such as Peel and Gladstone in the nineteenth century, or Winston Churchill and Tony Blair in the twentieth century. A study of the changing ideological passions of the modern Irish question, this analysis is, however, firmly placed in the context of changing social and economic realities. Using a vast range of original sources, Paul Bew holds together the worlds of political class in London, Dublin, and Belfast in one coherent analysis which takes the reader all the way from the society of the United Irishman to the crisis of the Good Friday Agreement.

Book Synopsis The Nineteenth Century by : T. C. W. Blanning
Download or read book The Nineteenth Century written by T. C. W. Blanning and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2000-05-26 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The complete Short Oxford History of Europe (series editor, Professor TCW Blanning) will cover the history of Europe from Classical Greece to the present in eleven volumes. In each, experts write to their strengths tackling the key issues including society, economy, religion, politics, and culture head-on in chapters that will be at once wide-ranging surveys and searching analyses. Each book is specifically designed with the non-specialist reader in mind; but the authority of the contributors and the vigour of the interpretations will make them necessary and challenging reading for fellow academics across a range of disciplines. Europe changed more rapidly and more radically during the nineteenth century than during any prior period. A population explosion, a communications revolution, mass literacy, secularisation, urbanisation, Imperialism - these were just a few of the many ways in which the lives of Europeans of every class were dramatically changed. It was the century when most of the ideologies of the modern world - liberalism, conservatism, nationalism, socialism, and racism - came of age. Yet in some respects, especially international relations, there was a surprising degree of continuity and harmony. In six pithy chapters experts on the political, international, social, economic, cultural, and imperial history of the period address and answer the big questions of the period.
