Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To all thoughtful people World War I has brought to intention the importance of a knowledge of 19th Century European history. For without such knowledge no one can understand, or begin to understand, the significance of the forces that have made it, the vastness of the issues involved, the nature of what is indisputably one of the gravest crises in the history of mankind. No citizen of a free country who takes his citizenship seriously, who considers himself responsible, to the full extent of his personal influence, for the character and conduct of his government, can, without the crudest self-stultification, admit that he knows nothing and cares nothing about the history of Europe._x000D_ Contents:_x000D_ The Old Regime in Europe_x000D_ The Old Regime in France_x000D_ Beginnings of the Revolution_x000D_ The Making of the Constitution_x000D_ The Legislative Assembly_x000D_ The Convention_x000D_ The Directory_x000D_ The Consulate_x000D_ The Early Years of the Empire_x000D_ The Empire at Its Height_x000D_ The Decline and Fall of Napoleon_x000D_ The Congresses_x000D_ France Under the Restoration_x000D_ Revolutions Beyond France_x000D_ The Reign of Louis Philippe_x000D_ Central Europe in Revolt_x000D_ The Second French Republic and the Founding of the Second Empire_x000D_ The Making of the Kingdom of Italy_x000D_ The Unification of Germany_x000D_ The Second Empire and the Franco-Prussian War_x000D_ The German Empire_x000D_ France Under the Third Republic_x000D_ The Kingdom of Italy Since 1870_x000D_ Austria-Hungary Since 1848_x000D_ England From 1815 to 1868_x000D_ England Since 1868_x000D_ The British Empire_x000D_ The Partition of Africa_x000D_ Spain and Portugal_x000D_ Holland and Belgium Since 1830_x000D_ Switzerland_x000D_ The Scandinavian States_x000D_ The Disruption of the Ottoman Empire and the Rise of the Balkan States_x000D_ Russia to the War With Japan_x000D_ The Far East_x000D_ Russia Since the 1905 War With Japan_x000D_ The Balkan Wars of 1912 and 1913_x000D_ The European War_x000D_ Making the Peace

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recent European History, 1789-1900 A knowledge of the movement toward constitutional government during the nineteenth century is essential to every educated person. Though this movement began with the French Revolution in 1789, the distinct recognition of popular rights by constitutional enactment falls chiefly within the nineteenth century. Revolutions and wars since 1789 have resulted in increased rights to some classes, and in many cases to whole nations. Since the Franco-Prussian War, 1870-1871, there has been no war between the great European nations, and their growth and development during this period need especially to be emphasized. Materials and books for the study of the French Revolution are perhaps more numerous than for any other period in the world's history. Indeed they are too numerous for the ordinary student and reader. Good books, however, on the nineteenth century since the fall of Napoleon are few, and there is no one book which includes the period from 1870 to 1900 with an outline of the earlier part of the century. Secondary schools offer very little history subsequent to the French Revolution, and the nineteenth century has generally been reserved for the study of the upper classes in college or for graduate work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This innovative survey explores Europe's long 19th century from the French Revolution to the end of World War One. As Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels announced in their Communist Manifesto of 1848, the French Revolution launched a new era in Europe in which virtually every aspect of the previous epoch, the 'old regime', was eventually overhauled, transformed and overthrown. The early years of this period witnessed not only the emergence of new political ideas and practices, which would form the base of the century's parliamentary and constitutional regimes, but also challenges to existing notions of social order, notable demographic growth and the beginnings of a revolutionary economic system. Moreover, by 1815 there were multiple signs that Europe, led by Great Britain, was beginning to take on new importance as a global power. Europe's Long Nineteenth Century tells the story of how Europe's peoples and states, from the Mediterranean to the Arctic Circle, from the Atlantic to the Urals, experienced and reacted to the set of social, cultural, economic and political changes that slowly transformed Europe and the world beyond it between 1789 and 1918. It characterizes this period as one of multiple transitions to highlight the different forces of change and the variability of their impact at different points of time and in different parts of Europe. Divided into three overlapping sections (1789-1850, 1840-1880, and 1870-1918), the book depicts overarching tendencies in each period while also pointing to unique aspects of specific regions and countries. Throughout, the argument is supported by illustrative material and bibliographic notes designed to encourage further reading and the understanding of changing historical perspectives on key topics.

Download or read book The National Habitus written by Marie-Pierre Le Hir and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2014-08-27 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stories about border crossers, illegal aliens, refugees that regularly appear in the press everywhere point to the crucial role national identity plays in human beings' lives today. The National Habitus seeks to understand how and why national belonging became so central to a person's identity and sense of identity. Centered on the acquisition of the national habitus, the process that transforms subjects into citizens when a state becomes a nation-state, the book examines this transformation at the individual level in the case of nineteenth century France. Literary texts serve as primary material in this study of national belonging, because, as Germaine de Staël pointed out long ago, literature has the unique ability to provide access to "inner feelings." The term "habitus," in the title of this book, signals a departure from traditional approaches to nationalism, a break with the criteria of language, race, and ethnicity typically used to examine it. It is grounded instead in a sociology that deals with the subjective dimension of life and is best exemplified by the works of Norbert Elias (1897–1990) and Pierre Bourdieu (1931–2002), two sociologists who approach belief systems like nationalism from a historical, instead of an ethical vantage point. By distinguishing between two groups of major French writers, three who experienced the 1789 Revolution firsthand as adults (Olympe de Gouges, François René de Chateaubriand and Germaine de Staël) and three who did not (Stendhal, Prosper Mérimée, and George Sand), the book captures evolving understandings of the nation, as well as thoughts and emotions associated with national belonging over time. Le Hir shows that although none of these writers is typically associated with nationalism, all of them were actually affected by the process of nationalization of feelings, thoughts, and habits, irrespective of aesthetic preferences, social class, or political views. By the end of the nineteenth century, they had learned to feel and view themselves as French nationals; they all exhibited the characteristic features of the national habitus: love of their own nation, distrust and/or hatred of other nations. By underscoring the dual contradictory nature of the national habitus, the book highlights the limitations nation-based identities impose on the prospect for peace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a study of the manner in which the Roman Catholic Church in France responded to successive revolutions between 1789 and 1870 as well as to the cultural upheaval associated with accelerating socio-economic change. It focuses on the Church as an institution engaged in a dynamic process of (re)Christianization and determined, as the only repository of the true faith of Jesus Christ, to fortify belief , and to combat the ‘Satanic’ forces of moral corruption and revolutionary chaos and create a ‘counter society’, the société parfaite. Discussion of the Church as an institution in crisis, of the recruitment, instruction and mind-sets of its bishops, parish clergy, and the members of religious orders, of its hierarchical structures and internal discipline, and of the need to compensate for the losses suffered during a period of revolutionary upheaval, provides the basis for an exploration of its evolving doctrine(s) and sense of purpose; for an assessment of the pastoral care provided to parish communities; and of the leadership and moral qualities of the clergy; before final consideration of the reception of the religious message(s).

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the responses of the Roman Catholic Church to the French Revolution beginning in 1789, to the liberal revolution in 1830, and particularly the democratic revolution of 1848 in France, and asks how these events were perceived and explained. Informed by the collective memory of the first revolution, how did the Church react to renewed ‘catastrophe’? How did it seek to influence political choice? Why did authoritarian government prove to be so attractive? This is a study of the impact of religion on political behaviour, as well as of the politicisation of religion. Roger Price employs the methodology of the social and cultural historian to explain the development and interaction of two key institutions, Church and State, during a period of political and social upheaval. Drawing on a wide range of archival and printed primary sources, as well as secondary literature, this book analyses the diverse perceptions of people with power and the impact of their decisions, and the responses, of a wide range of individuals and communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music criticism has played a fundamental and influential role throughout music history, with numerous composers such as Berlioz, Schumann, and Wagner, as well as many contemporary musicians, also maintaining careers as writers and critics. The Cambridge History of Music Criticism goes beyond these better-known accounts, reaching back to medieval times, expanding the geographical reach both within and beyond Europe, and including key issues such as women and criticism of recordings, as well as the story of criticism in jazz, popular music and world music. Drawing on a blend of established and talented young scholars, this is the first substantial historical survey of music criticism and critics, bringing unprecedented scope to a rapidly expanding area of musicological research. An indispensable point of reference, The Cambridge History of Music Criticism provides a broad historical overview of the field while also addressing specific issues and events.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Struggling to make sense of the Revolution of 1789, the French in the nineteenth century increasingly turned to visual forms of historical representation in a variety of media. Maurice Samuels shows how new kinds of popular entertainment introduced during and after the Revolution transformed the past into a spectacle. The wax display (in which visitors circulated amid life-size statues of historical figures), the phantasmagoria show (in which images of historical personages were projected onto smoke or invisible screens), and the panorama (in which spectators viewed giant circular canvases depicting historical scenes) employed new optical technologies to entice crowds of spectators. Such entertainments, Samuels asserts, provided bourgeois audiences with an illusion of mastery over the past, allowing them to picture their new role as historical agents.Samuels demonstrates how the spectacular mode of historical representation pervaded historiography, drama, and the novel during the Romantic period. He then argues that the early Realist fiction of Balzac and Stendhal emerged as a critique of the spectacular historical imagination. By investigating how postrevolutionary France envisioned the past, Samuels illuminates a vital moment in the cultural history of modernity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: France achieved national unity much later than is commonly supposed. For a hundred years and more after the Revolution, millions of peasants lived on as if in a timeless world, their existence little different from that of the generations before them. The author of this lively, often witty, and always provocative work traces how France underwent a veritable crisis of civilization in the early years of the French Republic as traditional attitudes and practices crumbled under the forces of modernization. Local roads and railways were the decisive factors, bringing hitherto remote and inaccessible regions into easy contact with markets and major centers of the modern world. The products of industry rendered many peasant skills useless, and the expanding school system taught not only the language of the dominant culture but its values as well, among them patriotism. By 1914, France had finally become La Patrie in fact as it had so long been in name.

Download or read book The Bourgeois Revolution in France, 1789-1815 written by Henry Heller and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last generation the classic Marxist interpretation of the French Revolution has been challenged by the so-called revisionist school. The Marxist view that the Revolution was a bourgeois and capitalist revolution has been questioned by Anglo-Saxon revisionists like Alfred Cobban and William Doyle as well as a French school of criticism headed by François Furet. Today revisionism is the dominant interpretation of the Revolution both in the academic world and among the educated public. Against this conception, this book reasserts the view that the Revolution - the capital event of the modern age - was indeed a capitalist and bourgeois revolution. Based on an analysis of the latest historical scholarship as well as on knowledge of Marxist theories of the transition from feudalism to capitalism, the work confutes the main arguments and contentions of the revisionist school while laying out a narrative of the causes and unfolding of the Revolution from the eighteenth century to the Napoleonic Age.

This book was released on 2024-01-25 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume probes and deciphers the tensions and contradictions that underlie modern European Liberal Catholicism. Beginning with the French revolution and looking at dialogues between European 'public moralists', the book discusses the ways in which liberal Catholics loosened their bonds with religion, all the while relying on it. It reflects on how and why they promoted a post-revolutionary state and society based on religious dogma and morality, and what new liberal order and socio-political and religious models they proposed. Beyond the analysis of the work of these Catholic intellectuals, the question of their conceiving a specific liberal approach through Catholicism is also investigated. More generally, it prompts a vital reappraisal of the political, ideological and philosophical pressures that the religious question caused in the redefinition of Western European post-revolutionary liberalism.
