Download or read book Europe and the Enlightened Despots written by Walter Oppenheim and published by Hodder Education. This book was released on 1990 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text focuses on two main themes: the ideas of the enlightened thinkers of the 18th century; and the extent to which such concepts were utilized by European monarchs. The discussion considers why these rulers were anxious to be associated with enlightened ideas, yet so rarely put them into practice. The minor rulers who can be classed as enlightened despots and the influence of the Enlightenment on the conduct of foreign policy are also considered.

Download or read book King Chǒngjo, an Enlightened Despot in Early Modern Korea written by Christopher Lovins and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2019-03-25 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first detailed analysis in English of monarchy and governance in Korea during King Chŏngjo’s reign. Were the countries of Europe the only ones that were “early modern”? Was Asia’s early modernity cut short by colonialism? Scholars examining early modern Eurasia have not yet fully explored the relationships between absolute rule and political modernization in the highly contested early modern world. Using a comparative perspective that places Chŏngjo, king of Korea from 1776 to 1800, in context with other Korean kings and with contemporary Chinese and European rulers, Christopher Lovins examines the shifting balance of power in Korea in favor of the crown at the expense of the aristocracy during the early modern period. This book is the first to analyze in English the recently discovered collection of 297 private letters written by Chŏngjo himself. These letters were a vital channel of communication outside of official court historians’ scrutiny, since private meetings between the king and his ministers were forbidden by custom. Royal politics played out in an arena of subtle communication, with court officials trying to read the king’s unstated, elliptically hinted at intentions and the king trying to suggest what he wanted done while maintaining plausible deniability. Through close analysis of both official records and private letters, including Chŏngjo’s “secret letters,” Lovins shows that, in contrast to previous assumptions, the late eighteenth-century Korean monarchs were not weak and ineffective but instead were in the process of building an absolutist polity.

Download or read book Enlightenment and Reform in Eighteenth-century Europe written by Derek Beales and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2005-03-24 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 18th century was a unique period of global and fundamental change. Britain conquered India and much of America, the American Revolution produced the USA, and Russia expanded vastly. In the field of ideas the Scientific Revolution was consolidated and followed by the Enlightenment. Nationalism flourished, populations surged, and the Commercial and Industrial Revolutions with Western technology eclipsed the East. Few centuries have inspired such a galaxy of historians, and their groundbreaking work has been drawn upon by Derek Beales in his collection of articles and special lectures. He covers the whole European kaleidoscope, but focuses especially on Joseph II and the Hapburg monarchy, asserting that Enlightened Despotism was the emodiment of the century's revolution in ideas, politics, government and administration.
