Book The Long Nineteenth Century  A History of Europe from 1789 to 1918

Download or read book The Long Nineteenth Century A History of Europe from 1789 to 1918 written by Charles Downer Hazen and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2019-01-02 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To all thoughtful people World War I has brought to intention the importance of a knowledge of 19th Century European history. For without such knowledge no one can understand, or begin to understand, the significance of the forces that have made it, the vastness of the issues involved, the nature of what is indisputably one of the gravest crises in the history of mankind. No citizen of a free country who takes his citizenship seriously, who considers himself responsible, to the full extent of his personal influence, for the character and conduct of his government, can, without the crudest self-stultification, admit that he knows nothing and cares nothing about the history of Europe.

Book Nineteenth Century Europe and Britain

Download or read book Nineteenth Century Europe and Britain written by Raymond Beazley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nineteenth Century Europe and Britain In this volume I have tried to give some results of independent work, and of University teaching, during the past ten years. Perhaps no period quite equals the Nineteenth Century as a 'torch to light us forwards as well as backwards,' and if we had followed that light more closely, the civilized world might have been less 'forwandred' to-day. In the opening paragraphs of the book itself I have summarized certain conclusions and suggestions which have helped to guide me. Instead of inserting geographical sketches and plans, necessarily rather meagre on a small page, I would refer readers to the more excellent way of consulting such a handy, scholarly, inexpensive, and altogether admirable map-collection as Robertson and Bartholomew's Historical Atlas of Modern Europe, 1789-1914 (Oxford, 1915). The Additional Notes on civilization- or culture-history, at certain epochs (e.g. 1812-15; 1870-71), only attempt to deal with a select number of outstanding and representative years. Even a slight survey of this field, as a whole, throughout the time here considered (1812-1918), was out of the question, much as I could have wished otherwise. And, in particular, I thought it best not to try anything on this side after the Franco-German War (1870-71). But I hope what has been tried may be of use.

Download or read book The Nineteenth Century written by T. C. W. Blanning and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2000-05-26 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The complete Short Oxford History of Europe (series editor, Professor TCW Blanning) will cover the history of Europe from Classical Greece to the present in eleven volumes. In each, experts write to their strengths tackling the key issues including society, economy, religion, politics, and culture head-on in chapters that will be at once wide-ranging surveys and searching analyses. Each book is specifically designed with the non-specialist reader in mind; but the authority of the contributors and the vigour of the interpretations will make them necessary and challenging reading for fellow academics across a range of disciplines. Europe changed more rapidly and more radically during the nineteenth century than during any prior period. A population explosion, a communications revolution, mass literacy, secularisation, urbanisation, Imperialism - these were just a few of the many ways in which the lives of Europeans of every class were dramatically changed. It was the century when most of the ideologies of the modern world - liberalism, conservatism, nationalism, socialism, and racism - came of age. Yet in some respects, especially international relations, there was a surprising degree of continuity and harmony. In six pithy chapters experts on the political, international, social, economic, cultural, and imperial history of the period address and answer the big questions of the period.

Book Militarized Cultural Encounters in the Long Nineteenth Century

Download or read book Militarized Cultural Encounters in the Long Nineteenth Century written by Joseph Clarke and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-22 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores European soldiers’ encounters with their continent’s exotic frontiers from the French Revolution to the First World War. In numerous military expeditions to Italy, Spain, Russia, Greece and the ‘Levant’ they found wild landscapes and strange societies inhabited by peoples who needed to be ‘civilized.’ Yet often they also discovered founding sites of Europe’s own ‘civilization’ (Rome, Jerusalem) or decaying reminders of ancient grandeur. The resulting encounters proved seminal in forging a military version of the ‘civilizing mission’ that shaped Europe’s image of itself as well as its relations with its own periphery during the long nineteenth century.

Book The Idea of Europe in British Travel Narratives  1789 1914

Download or read book The Idea of Europe in British Travel Narratives 1789 1914 written by Katarina Gephardt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nineteenth century was the heyday of travel, with Britons continually reassessing their own culture in relation to not only the colonized but also other Europeans, especially the ones that they encountered on the southern and eastern peripheries of the continent. Offering illustrative case studies, Katarina Gephardt shows how specific rhetorical strategies used in contemporary travel writing produced popular fictional representations of continental Europe in the works of Ann Radcliffe, Lord Byron, Charles Dickens, and Bram Stoker. She examines a wide range of autobiographical and fictional travel narratives to demonstrate that the imaginative geographies underpinning British ideas of Europe emerged from the spaces between fact and fiction. Adding texture to her study are her analyses of the visual dimensions of cross-cultural representation and of the role of evolving technologies in defining a shared set of rhetorical strategies. Gephardt argues that British writers envisioned their country simultaneously as distinct from the Continent and as a part of Europe, anticipating the contradictory British discourse around European integration that involves both fear that the European super-state will violate British sovereignty and a desire to play a more central role in the European Union.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Map of Europe (1911-1914): The Story of the Recent European Diplomatic Crises and Wars and of Europe's Present Catastrophe ON a July day in 1908, two American students, who had chosen to spend the first days of their honeymoon in digging the musty pamphleteers of the figure out of the Bodleian Library, were walking along the High Street in Oxford, when their attention was arrested by the cry of a newsboy. A halfpenny invested in a London newspaper gave them the news that Niazi bey had taken to the Macedonian Highlands, and that a revolution was threatening to overthrow the Absolutist régime of Abdul Hamid. The Sixteenth century was forgotten in the absorbing and compelling interest of the twentieth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
