Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essentials in Modern European History An understanding of contemporary Europe is largely dependent upon an appreciation of two lines of development which have their origin back in the early years of the eighteenth century. The one gave rise to modern methods of carrying on business and industry; the other gave us a new conception of the relation of government and the governed. In other words, to form a proper estimate of existing conditions in Europe we must follow step by step the revolutionary changes in commerce and industry and the tremendous advance of democracy which have in a special manner characterized the history of the past century and a quarter. The effort of the authors of the present volume has been to present in bold relief these particular phases of modern life, mindful at the same time of the necessity of maintaining throughout a proper perspective. This task becomes increasingly difficult as we approach our own day. The march of events, however, has been so rapid that correspondingly more space has been devoted to contemporary history than to the earlier epochs. An effort has been made throughout the volume to emphasize only the salient points in European progress and to present them in a form attractive to high school students, showing the interrelation of these facts and emphasizing especially their bearing upon the two aspects of the history of Europe to which reference has already been made. Those teachers who favor placing special emphasis upon the development of England in presenting the history of Europe will, we trust, find sufficient material for their purpose in the accompanying pages. The authors, however, have sought to avoid giving undue prominence to English development, realizing that other slates on the continent have played no inconsiderable part in world progress.

Download or read book Essentials in Early European History written by Samuel Burnett Howe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-23 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essentials in Early European History The recommendations of the Committee of Five of the American Historical Association and the appearance of the New York State Regents Syllabus in History first encouraged the author to offer these essentials in early European history for Part I of the course in Modern History. Since the publication of the first edition, the sub-committee on social science of the Commission on the Reorganization of Secondary Education appointed by the National Educational Association, in Bulletin 41 of the United States Bureau of Education, made definite recommendations for the division of European History into two units, the first, European History to the Eighteenth Century with English Colonial History, the second, European History from the Eighteenth Century to the present day. The Department of Education in New Jersey is in full accord with this course of study. In New York State the newer courses are being widely adopted, and in New England there is a strong movement in their direction. In the selection of these essentials, many details formerly deemed vital to a knowledge of history have been purposely omitted in an attempt to mirror the customs and life of the people and to explain the meaning of the great economic, social, and political movements of ancient, medieval, and early modern times, always having in mind their influence on present civilization.

Download or read book Modern European Intellectual History written by David Galaty and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This non-technical introduction to modern European intellectual history traces the evolution of ideas in Europe from the turn of the 19th century to the modern day. Placing particular emphasis on the huge technological and scientific change that has taken place over the last two centuries, David Galaty shows how intellectual life has been driven by the conditions and problems posed by this world of technology. In everything from theories of beauty to studies in metaphysics, the technologically-based modern world has stimulated a host of competing theories and intellectual systems, often built around the opposing notions of 'the power of the individual' versus collectivist ideals like community, nation, tradition and transcendent experience. In an accessible, jargon-free style, Modern European Intellectual History unpicks these debates and historically analyses how thought has developed in Europe since the time of the French Revolution. Among other topics, the book explores: * The Kantian Revolution * Feminism and the Suffrage Movement * Socialism and Marxism * Nationalism * Structuralism * Quantum theory * Developments in the Arts * Postmodernism * Big Data and the Cyber Century Highly illustrated with 80 images and 10 tables, and further supported by an online Instructor's Guidet, this is the most important student resource on modern European intellectual history available today.
