Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Modern Europe, Vol. 1 The second and less important group of authorities with which I have busied myself during the work of revision com prises the works of Hiiffer, Vivenot, Beer, Helfert, and others, based on Austrian documents, along with the Austrian docu ments and letters that have been published by Vivenot. The last-named writer is himself a partizan, but the material which he has given to the world is most valuable. The mystery in which the Austrian Government until lately enveloped all its actions caused some of these to be described as worse than they really were and I believe that in the First Edition I under estimated the bias of Prussian and north-german writers. Where I have seen reasons to alter any statements, I have done so without reserve, as it appears to me childish for any one who attempts to write history to cling to an Opinion after the balance of evidence seems to be against it. The publication of the second volume of this work has been delayed by the revision of the first; but I hope that it will appear before many months more. I must express my obligations to Mr. Oscar Browning, a fellow-labourer in the same field, who not only furnished me with various corrections, but placed his own lectures at my disposal; and to Mr. Alfred Kingston, whose unfailing kindness and courtesy make so great a difference to those whose work lies in the department of the Record Otfice which is under his care.

Is it really true that a great many of the inhabitants of Austria cannot speak the Austrian language? What is the good of learning the names, capitals, and boundaries of the ever-changing Balkan States? Are German bands typical examples of' German musical Kultur? Before the Great War sent us to our maps and our books of history, questions such as these were by no means uncommon, even in highly respectable society; for up to that time we were more interested in the towns, cities, and regions of our own country than in those of Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of Modern Europe, Vol. 1: An Introduction to the Study of Current History There are some teachers, perhaps, who would seek to justify the current disregard of recent history, but many others would agree with one of the guild who, when criticised for giving more attention in her instruction to Charlemagne than to Bismarck, complained with truth, But we know so much more about Charlemagne than about Bismarck. The great majority of those interested in history would no doubt gladly readjust their perspective if they had the means of doing so; and, indeed, there has been a marked improvement in this respect in the newer books which are giving more and more space to recent events.

Download or read book A History of Modern Europe Classic Reprint written by Merrick Whitcomb and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Modern Europe The text which follows differs from the many inter esting and valuable school histories which have preceded it in laying greater emphasis upon the Contemporary Period. This change of values reflects, I think, the ten deney of American schools of history, and these in turn are responding to the growing world-interests of the American people. An expansion of the Nineteenth Cen tury implies a corresponding contraction in the earlier centuries, the period of historical instruction remaining constant. It is a pity, when the history of Europe is everywhere so attractive; but it is inevitable. Our fore fathers were content with classical, and often with myth ical personages we have been made to comprehend our Luther and Loyola, our Mirabeau and Napoleon; and. Our children will have to make more room for their Ca vour, their Bismarck, and their Gladstone. It is a choice of benefits, and there are many substantial reasons why, in the building up of a system of popular education, the present should not be sacrificed to the past.

This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Modern Europe From the Fall of Constantinople, Vol. 1 of 6 The work, of course, is of a political nature 5 its main object being to show the origin and nature of the European concert. To have entered into any descriptions of manners and literature, besides being foreign to its subject, would have swollen the book to an inconvenient size. Such topics are more appropriate to the particular histories of different countries, or to separate works specially devoted to them. It has, however, been sometimes necessary to enter into literary history when it has produced social or political revolutions, as in the case of the Protestant Reformation and the French Revolution. But here, as in the rest of the work, the main outlines only could be indicated, and the reader must complete the sketch from his own researches.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Readings in Modern European History, Vol. 1: A Collection of Extracts From the Sources Chosen With the Purpose of Illustrating Some of the Chief Phases of Development of Europe During the Last Two Hundred Years However carefully and judiciously a historical manual may be prepared, it is impossible in its brief, compact statements of the fundamental facts to give a lively sense of the reality of the events, conditions, and motives with which it deals. The student is only too likely to learn and repeat the words of the book as mere formulas which fail to stimulate real thought and interest. In order to meet this difficulty and give the text-book its proper background and atmosphere the student must be brought here and there within reach of the living springs of our knowledge and see the very words of those who, writing when the past was present, can carry us back to themselves and make their times our own.

Download or read book Russell s History of Modern Europe Epitomised written by Russell William and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 716 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Russell's History of Modern Europe Epitomised: Forming a Complete d104-Book of Modern History Within the compass of this volume the reader is presented with an epitome of Russell's larger work, upon the History of Modern Europe. It remains the favourite guide to a knowledge of the various subjects of which it treats; and has very recently been recom mended as a text-book by the Government Civil Service Commissioners and the Earl of Clarendon. No modern work enjoys a similar reputation, and it is in all respects a safe authority. Every fact and the date of all the events recorded in these pages have been verified, original matter has been introduced, and the entire work submitted to the most careful revision. In epitomising this valuable book of reference the editor has endeavoured to give as fair a View of the leading details of modern history, as was possible Within the limits. The more interesting portions of the sub ject, that stand out in bold and full relief on the map of the past, have been described at greater length, while less important matters have been abridged, without, however, interrupting the thread of the narrative. In fact the editor's aim has been to supply what has long been wanting in English literature - a Handbook, in which the chief events of Modern History are set forth in a clear, concise, and intelligent form.
