Download or read book An Introduction to the History of Modern Europe (Classic Reprint) written by Archibald Weir and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the History of Modern Europe Napoleonic period so far as is required to range in their places the most notable results of the Revolutionary movement. Two more chapters consider the changes in Germany, Italy, Spain, Russia, Scandinavia, Turkey, Servia, and Greece, from which the modern history of these countries takes its departure. The seventh Chapter describes the industrial revolution in England, which operated more than any other order of causes to change the conditions of political, social, and individual life throughout civilized communities. The eighth supple ments this account of modern industrialism by indicating in outline the mechanical progress to which the industrial revolution was mainly due, and by reviewing briefly the formation of the theory Of political economy, which was to assist in the development Of industrialism. The ninth chapter shows how inductive research attained to a success, which, without intermission, has led physical science to its present state of influence and power. The same chapter supplements the intellectual side Of this account by pointing out how the deeper problems of existence received a new statement in Germany, which, with the tendencies Of British thought, has governed speculation till our own day. In Germany, too, closely connected with the national regeneration, and rich in humanizing elements, occurred a literary revival which is the subject Of Chapter X. In England, also, literature entered on a new development, which enabled it to respond to the needs Of an expanded society, and to contribute to European culture. This subject is reviewed in Chapter XL; but the literary innovations in France, and some even in Germany, which fall within the chronological limits covered by the above events, are so manifestly characteristic Of the time Of reaction that it would have exceeded the purpose of this volume to have included them in the same survey. A concluding chapter briefly comments on the results of the foregoing reviews, and demonstrates that the his torical problem Of our time far transcends the scope of the dictum that history is past politics and that politics are present history. The dominant order of changes is now, indeed, industrial. It is the striving of men to Obtain wealth and material comfort that in this age mainly determines the form and Objects of their political organization. It is this which sets the aims Of their self culture and the ideals Of their scientific research. What in past times was determined by reverence for God, the state, and the family, or by fear Of present or future punishment, is now for the most part controlled by the principles of co-operative production and distribution. We have, indeed, the ideas of religion for religion's sake, of art for art's sake, of self for self's sake, of culture for culture's sake. But only in a secondary manner do the ideas Of social perfection and individual development, of speculative truth and positive belief, influence now the policy which proximate utility dictates. Yet the period bears no resemblance to those moments of history when ease and luxury have been the guiding ends of a ruling few. The principle Of comfort and Opportunity for all has yet to be exhibited in its full meaning; but it is as clearly Of quite peculiar character as its realization is evidently the function of our age.

Book Synopsis The Making of Europe by : William Henry Barker
Download or read book The Making of Europe written by William Henry Barker and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-25 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Making of Europe: A Geographic Treatment of the Historical Development of Europe During recent years it has become recognised that the broad lines of European history should be taught in conjunction with British history. Experience, however, has shown the difficulty with which pupils are confronted upon their first acquaintance with the subject. Generally, too, it has not been found practicable to carry the study beyond 1870, although the interpretation of the modern world demands it. This book, the outcome of considerable class experience, endeavours to meet these difficulties by treating mainly those historical features having direct bearing on the development of modern Europe, by emphasising the geographic influences which have been a factor in the same development and by the continuous use of special maps. It has thus been possible to deal with the story prior to I 789 in comparative outline, the main portion of the volume being reserved for the history of the nineteenth century, particularly for that economic development which has characterised the last fifty years, making the history of Europe the history of the world. The recent Great War and its historical causes have their place in the scheme and are treated in the final chapter, while an attempt is also made to review in the light of the past the terms of the Peace Settlements and the League of Nations.

Book Synopsis Economy and Society in Early Modern Europe by : Peter Burke
Download or read book Economy and Society in Early Modern Europe written by Peter Burke and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1929 two French historians, Lucien Febvre and Marc Bloch, founded Annales, a historical journal which rapidly became one of the most influential in the world. They believed that economic history, social history and the history of ideas were as important as political history, and that historians should not be narrow specialists but should learn from their colleagues in the social sciences. Two of the most distinguished French members of the Annales school are represented in this volume - Fernand Braudel and Emmanuel Le Roy Ladurie - the core of which is the debate on the Price Revolution of the sixteenth century dealt with by Cipolla, Chabert, Hoszowski and Verlinden. Within the volume, all the contributions are oriented towards Europe in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, and all are concerned with long-term changes, and with the relation between economic growth and social change. It includes articles on the European movement of expansion discussed by Malowist and the activities of the Hungarian nobles as entrepreneurs discussed by Pach, and two articles on wider issues: Le Roy Ladurie on the history of climate, and Braudel, summing up the Annales programme, on the relation between history and the social sciences. This classic text was first published in 1972.

Download or read book The Historical Development of Modern Europe written by Charles M. Andrews and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Historical Development of Modern Europe: From the Congress of Vienna to the Present Time In this work, as its title indicates, I have attempted to trace the historical development of Europe from the congress of Vienna to the present time. As the condition of Europe in 1815 and the later movements in the various countries cannot be properly understood without some knowledge of the political, social, and economic changes that have transformed Europe of the eighteenth into Europe of the nineteenth century, I have devoted considerable introductory space to the chief characteristics of the old régime, to an outline of the French Revolution, and to the career and influence of Napoleon Bonaparte. The present volume carries the subject to 1848 in France, to 1849 in Italy, and to 1850 in Germany; the next will bring it down to the present time. There are two methods of writing the history of Europe since 1815, one or the other of which will be employed according to the purpose of the writer. The first of these is to treat events more or less chronologically, by passing from country to country, from national to international affairs, not so much with regard to continuity of treatment and unity of subject as from a desire to keep the history of all the European states at a constant level. This method, which has been in the main employed by the two ablest historians of Modern Europe, Fyffe and Stern, is better adapted for advanced students than for those less familiar with the subject; because by never completing the study of any one movement in any one place, it tends to leave a confused picture in the mind of the reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Economic Development of France: And Germany 1815-1914 For some years now I have lectured at Cambridge over the ground covered by this book. In 1907 I published, in Vol. x of the Cambridge Modern History, a chapter part of which corresponds - in matter and I daresay sometimes in words - with the earlier chapters which follow. I was urged by friends to put all my material into book form, for the use of the growing body of those at Cambridge and elsewhere who now study European economic history and are handicapped by the lack of books in English, and of comprehensive books in any language. I have written with an eye to them; but I hope what I have written may interest others. At first I planned a history of West European economic development in the nineteenth century; but I abandoned this notion, after discussion, for fear that such a book would be either outrageously long or overcrowded with dry and unexplained detail. Even as it is, in this attempt to put French and German economic history into a West European framework, the references to several topics will, I am sure, seem deficient in analytical explanation to many readers. Footnotes have been reduced to a minimum; so some account of the sources on which I have drawn most may be given here. For the earlier period there is a bibliography to my chapter in the Modern History. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Economic Solution of the European Crisis "The making of peace is to be desired and to be regarded as a blessing, when it can insure us against the suspicious designs of our neighbours, when it creates no new danger and brings the promise of future tranquillity. But if the making of peace is to produce the very opposite of all this, then, for all its deceptive title, it is no better than the continuation of a ruinous war." - Guicciardini. "No Treaty of Peace is worthy of its name, if contained therein are the hidden germs of a future war." - Kant, Essay on Perpetual Peace. In the present circumstances it is very difficult to preserve that international attitude of mind which alone can enable us to regard the questions at issue from the point of view of the general interests of Europe and of the world, without allowing ourselves to be influenced by the passions and prejudices that are inseparable from the particular interests of nationalities. And yet such a frame of mind is indispensable for any one who wishes to have any prospect of finding in a just and permanent form that solution of the European problem that he is concerned to seek. Nor is it any the less necessary, if we restrict our aim to the search for a specific adjustment that can invite the careful consideration and the goodwill of all the parties, interested. The international situation of to-day is due to a series of special circumstances affecting the interests of nationalities. National psychology is a factor which has played in it a part the importance of which neither is nor can be contested. But the real "causes," the original and deep-seated causes, were of a far more general character, connected with the very nature and necessity of things.

Book Synopsis The Cambridge Economic History of Modern Europe: by : Stephen Broadberry
Download or read book The Cambridge Economic History of Modern Europe: written by Stephen Broadberry and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-06-24 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike most existing textbooks on the economic history of modern Europe, which offer a country-by-country approach, The Cambridge Economic History of Modern Europe rethinks Europe's economic history since 1700 as unified and pan-European, with the material organised by topic rather than by country. This first volume is centred on the transition to modern economic growth, which first occurred in Britain before spreading to other parts of western Europe by 1870. Each chapter is written by an international team of authors who cover the three major regions of northern Europe, southern Europe, and central and eastern Europe. The volume covers the major themes of modern economic history, including trade; urbanization; aggregate economic growth; the major sectors of agriculture, industry and services; and the development of living standards, including the distribution of income. The quantitative approach makes use of modern economic analysis in a way that is easy for students to understand.
Book Synopsis Transitions to Capitalism in Early Modern Europe by : Robert S. Duplessis
Download or read book Transitions to Capitalism in Early Modern Europe written by Robert S. Duplessis and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-09-18 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the end of the Middle Ages and the Industrial Revolution, the long-established structures and practices of European agriculture and industry were slowly, disparately, but profoundly transformed. Transitions to Capitalism in Early Modern Europe, first published in 1997, narrates and analyzes the diverse patterns of economic change that permanently modified rural and urban production, altered Europe's economy and geography, and gave birth to new social classes. Broad in chronological and geographical scope and explicitly comparative, the book introduces readers to a wealth of information drawn from thoughout Mediterranean, east-central, and western Europe, as well as to the classic interpretations and current debates and revisions. The study incorporates scholarship on topics such as the world economy and women's work, and it discusses at length the impact of the emergent capitalist order on Europe's working people.
Book Synopsis An Economic History of Twentieth-Century Europe by : Ivan T. Berend
Download or read book An Economic History of Twentieth-Century Europe written by Ivan T. Berend and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-04-20 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major history of economic regimes and economic performance throughout the twentieth century. Ivan T. Berend looks at the historic development of the twentieth-century European economy, examining both its failures and its successes in responding to the challenges of this crisis-ridden and troubled but highly successful age. The book surveys the European economy's chronological development, the main factors of economic growth, and the various economic regimes that were invented and introduced in Europe during the twentieth century. Professor Berend shows how the vast disparity between the European regions that had characterized earlier periods gradually began to disappear during the course of the twentieth century as more and more countries reached a more or less similar level of economic development. This accessible book will be required reading for students in European economic history, economics, and modern European history.

The authors combine economic theory and historical evidence to argue that political processes drove the economic divergence between the two world regions, with continued consequences today that become clear in this innovative account.
