Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expansion of Europe the Culmination of Modern History This little book is an attempt to survey, without any multiplicity of detail, but with an increasing degree of fullness as the story draws nearer to our own time, the sources and character of the great process by which, during the last four centuries, the whole world has been subjugated by the civilisation of Europe, and its bearing upon the problems of the Great War. I have tried to analyse briefly the nature of the share in this work taken by the chief European peoples who have participated in it. Naturally the pre dominant place is given to the British Empire. This must in any case have been so, since the British Empire covers one-quarter of the earth's surface. But I have given to it even more than its relative share of attention, partly because it is our chief concern, and partly because the variety of types which it includes makes it the most interesting political structure which has ever existed in the world, while the principles upon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expansion of Europe, Vol. 1 of 2: A History of the Foundations, of the Modern World IN presenting what is, in efiect, a new synthesis of modern history it seems necessary to define, as well as possible, the reasons for such an undertaking. These lie chiefly in the point of view from which such history is to be considered in the light of the demands of the present and the oncoming generation. It is obvious that we are in a stage of develop ment to which many of the older formulas do not apply, and that we are entering an era in which it seems necessary to take a wider if not a deeper View of the past and of the forces which have gone to the making of the modern world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expansion of Europe, Vol. 2 of 2: A History of the Foundations of the Modern World When in the last months of 1648 was signed the great peace which brought to an end the Thirty Years' War and with it the mediaeval polity which it finally destroyed; as the army of diplomats whose work it was dispersed to their respective governments, the awe-inspiring mass of documents which formed the fruit of their long labors might have led men to believe that Europe would hasten to enjoy the peace which she so needed and which her people for the most part so greatly desired. But whatever hopes Of quiet were enter tained, were already far on the way to disappointment; for the Europe to which the diplomats returned was even then altered or altering before their eyes and already shaping itself for new conflict. Scarcely a state of any consequence prepared to recruit its resources by the arts of peace; scarcely a royal house but faced a crisis in its fortunes; scarcely a people but was stirring in unrest or already en gaged in revolution. SO far from ushering in a period Of peaceful progress the Westphalian treaties became the start ing point for new and bloody rivalries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern European History America 'has come to realize how ignorant she has been of Euro pean history and of European conditions and how heavily that ignorance has cost her. Not only her citizens but also her official leaders, high and low, have frequently revealed, during the appalling crises of the last five years, a lamentable and dangerous lack of comprehension of things vital to their own welfare and to the welfare of the world. As a nation we have successfully muddled through the great entanglement of our times, but it is not safe for nations, any more than for individuals, to muddle, since the issue may not always be happy, and is at any rate always purchased at too high a price. It ought to be clear even to the blind, after the events of the past five years, that the destinies of America and Europe are not dis connected but are inextricably intertwined and will remain so.

This book was released on 2017-01-09 with total page 882 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern and Contemporary European History The Protestant Revolution had broken up the religious monopoly Of the Catholic Church, but it had by no means established religious equality, or even tolera The system tion. Indeed, Protestant theologians like Luther, of national Calvin, Knox, andcranmer were as insistent on churches conformity to the established religion as their Catholic opponents. The fundamental principle Of the Protestant Revolution was religious independence rather than religious freedom, the idea that every nation had the right to estab lish its own type Of Christianity. One World, one Faith, had been the demand Of the Catholic. In the warfare Of creeds in the seventeenth century, the futility Of this ideal became apparent, and a new principle, one Nation, one Faith, took its place. But as the nation had not yet attained any adequate means Of self-expression, the mon arch and the governing class were generally able to force upon it their own form of religion. Hence it came about that the religion of the king became by law the religion Of the people, and Official churches were organized to preach it. This is how we get the system of established churches. Toleration was the one thing that both Catholics and Protestants rejected. Conformity to the national religion was the law everywhere; hence nonconformists and free thinkers found themselves persons without a country. The degree Of intolerance varied with the strength Of the estab lished Church. In Spain, where Catholic hegemony was unchallenged, heretics were still burned at the stake. In England, where the established Anglican Church had many opponents, both Catholic and Protestant, nonconformists were merely fined and imprisoned. The Church, particu larly in Catholic countries, was very wealthy, as it owned vast tracts Of land which yielded enormous revenues. In addition, a special tax, called the tithe, was levied on the people, irrespective Of their religious beliefs, for the benefit Of the Official religion.
