Book excerpt: From the “master of historical narrative” (Financial Times), a dazzling, richly detailed, panoramic work—the first to document the genesis of a continent-wide European culture. The nineteenth century in Europe was a time of unprecedented artistic achievement. It was also the first age of cultural globalization—an epoch when mass communications and high-speed rail travel brought Europe together, overcoming the barriers of nationalism and facilitating the development of a truly European canon of artistic, musical, and literary works. By 1900, the same books were being read across the continent, the same paintings reproduced, the same music played in homes and heard in concert halls, the same operas performed in all the major theatres. Drawing from a wealth of documents, letters, and other archival materials, acclaimed historian Orlando Figes examines the interplay of money and art that made this unification possible. At the center of the book is a poignant love triangle: the Russian writer Ivan Turgenev; the Spanish prima donna Pauline Viardot, with whom Turgenev had a long and intimate relationship; and her husband Louis Viardot, an art critic, theater manager, and republican activist. Together, Turgenev and the Viardots acted as a kind of European cultural exchange—they either knew or crossed paths with Delacroix, Berlioz, Chopin, Brahms, Liszt, the Schumanns, Hugo, Flaubert, Dickens, and Dostoyevsky, among many other towering figures. As Figes observes, nearly all of civilization’s great advances have come during periods of heightened cosmopolitanism—when people, ideas, and artistic creations circulate freely between nations. Vivid and insightful, The Europeans shows how such cosmopolitan ferment shaped artistic traditions that came to dominate world culture.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Railway Pioneer: Notes by a Civil Engineer in Europe and America From 1838 to 1888 Having been frequently asked by those closely connected with me to give some particulars of my Professional Wanderings, the following has been written in compliance with such desire. Wanderings which, with some 130,000 miles of Atlantic and Pacific voyages - equivalent to about five times around the globe - besides many thousands of land journeys in parts but little known, cannot be altogether devoid of interest even in these days of cheap excursions everywhere; so that my experiences in France, Italy, Chili, Peru, the Argentine Provinces, Brazil, Central America, Guatemala, Mexico, the United States, Canada, and the West Indies, should, perhaps, yield some items of amusement, if not of instruction, and repay for the perusal of these rough notes of one of the earliest of Railway Engineers.
