Book Pombal  Paradox of the Enlightenment

Download or read book Pombal Paradox of the Enlightenment written by Kenneth Maxwell and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1995-03-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first major study in English for over half a century of one of Portugal's most important historical figures, Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo, marquês de Pombal (1699-1782). He is best known today as the key figure in the reconstruction of Lisbon after the devastating earthquake of 1755. Pombal's achievements however went far beyond the reconstruction of the capital. An unusually single-minded and ruthless first minister, he was also one of the eighteenth century's most successful 'enlightened despots': for example, he reformed the Portugese system of education, began the process whereby the Jesuits were expelled from Portugal after their suppression by the Pope in 1773, and mounted a formidable challenge to British commercial hegemony in Portugal. Recent renewed interest in the theory of enlightened absolutism has tended to ignore developments in the Iberian peninsula. This book is therefore essential to a full understanding of the complexities and paradoxes of enlightened rulership in a southern European context.

Book Enlightened Despotism in Russia

    Book Details:
  • Author : James F. Brennan
  • Publisher : Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers
  • Release : 1987
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 304 pages

Download or read book Enlightened Despotism in Russia written by James F. Brennan and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1987 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Generally when historians consider englightened despotism in Russia they turn to the reign of Catherine the Great. The twenty-year reign of her predecessor, Elisabeth Petrovna, is ignored as some sort of «dark age». With the passage of time, scholars have found that elements of enlightened despotism were well developed before Catherine. Internal tariffs were abolished in 1753, law codes were written but not enacted, Moscow University was opened in 1755, the death penality was unofficially abolished, the Academy of Fine Arts was founded and efforts were made to spread education. Indeed, there were unenlightened aspects of the period, such as the treatment of Jews and Old Believers. But if the Seven Years' War had not interrupted the process, there is little doubt that the reign of Elisabeth would be the one historians would first consider when studying Russian enlightened despotism.
