Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The French Revolution: A History Vol. II" book written by means of Thomas Carlyle, stands as a monumental painting that vividly captures the tumultuous occasions of one of the most transformative intervals in world history. Carlyle's narrative skillfully reconstructs the complex socio-political landscape of late 18th-century France, offering readers a gripping account of the French Revolution. The first extent of Carlyle's work lays the foundation for the overarching ancient narrative. With a unique and impassioned prose style, Carlyle immerses readers in the chaotic and modern environment of France, detailing the discontent some of the masses, the decadence of the aristocracy, and the spark that ignited the flames of rise up. The creator's deep engagement with number one resources and his philosophical reflections make a contribution to the richness of the narrative. Carlyle's paintings are going beyond a mere chronological retelling; it's miles a profound evaluation of the forces that formed an era. The author explores the beliefs, conflicts, and the relentless pursuit of justice by the French humans. While the paintings aren't without controversy, being influenced by way of Carlyle's own perspectives, it remains a great ancient account that remains studied for its literary merit and its effect on shaping perceptions of the French Revolution.

Download or read book Resisting Rebellion written by Anthony Joes and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2006-08-18 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Resisting Rebellion, Anthony James Joes’s discussion of insurgencies ranges across five continents and spans more than two centuries. Analyzing examples from North and South America, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, he identifies recurrent patterns and offers useful lessons for future policymakers. Insurgencies arise from many sources of discontent, including foreign occupation, fraudulent elections, and religious persecution, but they also stem from ethnic hostilities, the aspirations of would-be elites, and traditions of political violence. Because insurgency is as much a political phenomenon as a military one, effective counterinsurgency requires a thorough understanding of the insurgents’ motives and sources of support. Clear political aims must guide military action if a counterinsurgency is to be successful and establish a lasting reconciliation within a deeply fragmented society.

Download or read book Refugee Nuns the French Revolution and British Literature and Culture written by Tonya J. Moutray and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In eighteenth-century literature, negative representations of Catholic nuns and convents were pervasive. Yet, during the politico-religious crises initiated by the French Revolution, a striking literary shift took place as British writers championed the cause of nuns, lauded their socially relevant work, and addressed the attraction of the convent for British women. Interactions with Catholic religious, including priests and nuns, Tonya J Moutray argues, motivated writers, including Hester Thrale Piozzi, Helen Maria Williams, and Charlotte Smith, to revaluate the historical and contemporary utility of religious refugees. Beyond an analysis of literary texts, Moutray's study also examines nuns’ personal and collective narratives, as well as news coverage of their arrival to England, enabling a nuanced investigation of a range of issues, including nuns' displacement and imprisonment in France, their rhetorical and practical strategies to resist authorities, representations of refugee migration to and resettlement in England, relationships with benefactors and locals, and the legal status of "English" nuns and convents in England, including their work in recruitment and education. Moutray shows how writers and the media negotiated the multivalent figure of the nun during the 1790s, shaping British perceptions of nuns and convents during a time critical to their survival.
Download or read book The Rise of the Nation State in Europe written by Jack L. Schwartzwald and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1648 Treaty of Westphalia marked the emergence of the nation-state as the dominant political entity in Europe. This book traces the development of the nation-state from its infancy as a virtual dynastic possession, through its incarnation as the embodiment of the sovereign popular will. Three sections chronicle the critical epochs of this transformation, beginning with the belief in the "divine right" of monarchical rule and ending with the concept that the people, not their leaders, are the heart of a nation--an enduring political ideal that remains the basis of the modern nation-state.
Download or read book The Routledge Companion to the French Revolution in World History written by Alan Forrest and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-09-16 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Companion to the French Revolution in World History engages with some of the most recent trends in French revolutionary scholarship by considering the Revolution in its global context. Across seventeen chapters an international team of contributors examine the impact of the Revolution not only on its European neighbours but on Latin America, North America and Africa, assess how far events there impacted on the Revolution in France, and suggest something of the Revolution’s enduring legacy in the modern world. The Companion views the French Revolution through a deliberately wide lens. The first section deals with its global repercussions from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean and includes a discussion of major insurrections such as those in Haiti and Venezuela. Three chapters then dissect the often complex and entangled relations with other revolutionary movements, in seventeenth-century Britain, the American colonies and Meiji Japan. The focus then switches to international involvement in the events of 1789 and the circulation of ideas, people, goods and capital. In a final section contributors throw light on how the Revolution was and is still remembered across the globe, with chapters on Russia, China and Australasia. An introduction by the editors places the Revolution in its political, historical and historiographical context. The Routledge Companion to the French Revolution in World History is a timely and important contribution to scholarship of the French Revolution.
