Book Synopsis The End of the Old Regime in Europe, 1776-1789, Part I by : Franco Venturi
Download or read book The End of the Old Regime in Europe, 1776-1789, Part I written by Franco Venturi and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Franco Venturi, premier European interpreter of the Enlightenment, is still completing his acclaimed multivolume work Settecento Riformatore, a grand synthesis of Western history before the French Revolution as seen through the perceptive eyes of Italian observers. Princeton University Press has already published R. Burr Litchfield's English translation of the third volume of Settecento Riformatore, The End of the Old Regime in Europe, 1768-1776: The First Crisis. Now the story continues with The End of the Old Regime in Europe, 1776-1789, translated from Volume IV of Venturi's work. The earlier volume dealt with European and Italian public opinion through the important decade that ended with the American Declaration of Independence. Part I of this new double volume traces the development of politics and opinion in the final crisis of the Old Regime in the great states of Western Europe--Great Britain, Spain, France, and Portugal. The second part extends the narrative to Eastern Europe. It discusses the growing movement of republican patriotism and the attempt to reform the Hapsburg, Russian, and Ottoman Empires. As previously, this historical drama is viewed through Italian publishing and journalism that observed a cosmopolitan world from Turin, Venice, Milan, Florence, Rome, and Naples and that intelligently interpreted it.

Book Synopsis The Culture of Power and the Power of Culture by : T. C. W. Blanning
Download or read book The Culture of Power and the Power of Culture written by T. C. W. Blanning and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2002-02-14 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fascinating new account of Old Regime Europe, T. C. W. Blanning explores the cultural revolution which transformed eighteenth-century Europe. During this period the court culture exemplified by Louis XIV's Versailles was pushed from the centre to the margins by the emergence of a new kind of space - the public sphere. The author shows how many of the world's most important cultural institutions developed in this space: the periodical, the newspaper, the novel, the lending library, the coffee house, the voluntary association, the journalist, and the critic. It was here that public opinion staked its claim to be the ultimate arbiter of culture and politics. For the established order this new force was to prove both a challenge and an opportunity and the author's comparative study of power and culture shows how regimes sought to keep their balance as the ground moved beneath their feet. In the process he explains, among other things, why Britain won the 'Second Hundred Years War' against France, how Prussia rose to become the dominant power in German-speaking Europe, and why the French monarchy collapsed.

Book Synopsis Europe, 1648-1815 by : Robin W. Winks
Download or read book Europe, 1648-1815 written by Robin W. Winks and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2004 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1648, Europe was reeling from the destabilizing effects of religious conflict, economic change, and social upheaval. The issues that divided the Church in the late Middle Ages had forced Europeans to choose sides in a bitter and bloody Catholic/Protestant conflict. A powerful capitalist movement had broken down old social ties, leading to the near disappearance of serfdom in Western Europe and to the formation of a larger merchant class in the cities. The discoveries of the Scientific Revolution had begun to corrode old certainties about the universe, just as the exploration of the New World was revealing the existence of peoples, cultures, and even continents that would have been unimaginable to previous generations. In the face of such chaos, which led many to fear that society was heading towards an utter breakdown, the European elite engaged in a desperate effort to restore order. Between 1648 and 1750, peoples and governments throughout Europe sought to contain the shift toward anarchy through the reinforcement of religious orthodoxies, the strengthening of national states, and the stiffening of social hierarchies. But by the later eighteenth century, the success of this effort led paradoxically to new institutional and intellectual demands for change. The search for order had given way to a quest for progress. A new movement known as "the Enlightenment" was transforming the old order, and revolution was about to become a Western tradition. Europe, 1648-1815 is a concise narrative of this fascinating epoch in European history. Framing the events of the period in terms of two successive movements--the search for order and the pursuit of reform--this book surveys the political, economic, social, and cultural events of the period, from the rise of absolutism to the campaigns of Napoleon, from the creation of European empires in the Americas to the controversies of the Enlightenment. With numerous selections from primary sources, a detailed and updated bibliography, a chronology of the period, and numerous illustrations, Europe, 1648-1815 is indispensable for courses on Early Modern Europe. It can be used as a stand-alone textbook or in conjunction with supplementary readings.

Book Synopsis The Ancient Regime in Europe by : E. N. Williams
Download or read book The Ancient Regime in Europe written by E. N. Williams and published by Vintage. This book was released on 1999 with total page 599 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frederick the Great declared that there were seven major powers in Europe - Holland, Spain, France, Russia, Prussia, Austria and Britain. Some of these were of merely European significance, others were world empires. Taking each power in turn, E. N. Williams examines its fundamental strengths and weaknesses. By concentrating on the internal history of each state, he penetrates the inner workings of its government and economy and reveals the complexity of its social system. He highlights the struggles between innovation and tradition which charactise this period, between the absolute monarchs and the ancient liberties of the clergy and nobles, between capitalism in commerce and industry and the old agrarian way of life. The result is a comprehensive and fascinating survey of eighteenth-century Europe. 'It is by far the best textbook available. 'TES
