Download or read book The Habsburg Empire written by C. A. Macartney and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2014-09-04 with total page 1081 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a narrative history of the Austrian Monarchy from 1790 to its break-up in 1918. Its theme is the hundred year struggle between the venerable dynastic empire which ruled Central Europe, and the new national, political and social forces in conflict with it, an with one another. The author starts with the death of Emperor Joseph 11 in 1790, the event which he takes as marking the turn of the tide in the struggle between autocracy and centralisation on the one side, and the new forces on the other; but he prefixes his narrative with a brief account of Joseph's own reign, and with a comprehensive picture of the old monarchy on the threshold of the new age. C. A. Macartney takes his subject as comprising the monarchy as a whole, every people, class and province in it. He thus brings and makes intelligible the diversity within the unity, and the unity synthesising the diversity, which give the history of the Austrian Monarchy its special and unique character. The author was long acquainted with the countries and peoples that were once part of the Habsburg Empire and it was this experience, combined with linguistic accomplishments that enabled him to draw on an exceptionally wide range of sources. The result is a work of monumental scholarship written with unique insight and understanding.

Book excerpt: In this Anvil original one of our distinguished historians presents a brief but comprehensive survey of the Habsburg Empire from 1804 to 1918. He shows how, in an age of nationalism, the complex and multi-national empire faced the problem of establishing an order which would give its various nationalities freedom of development and a feeling of equality. Professor Kohn's description of the struggles and efforts of the Habsburg Empire illuminates some of the fundamental problems which in an age of world-wide nationalists aspirations face Europe and mankind in our time. Twenty full-length readings add authenticity to the story, told with the enlightened skill for which Professor Kohn is noted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Habsburg Monarchy (or Habsburg Empire) is an unofficial appellation amongst historians for the countries and provinces which were ruled by the junior Austrian branch of the House of Habsburg (1278?1780), and then by the successor House of Habsburg-Lorraine (from 1780), between 1526 and 1804. The "Habsburg Monarchy / Habsburg Empire" term was born only posteriorly in the early 19th century, which referred to the Habsburg dominions between the 1526 - 1804 period. The Imperial capital was Vienna, except from 1583 to 1611, when it was moved to Prague. From 1804 to 1867 the Habsburgs ruled the Austrian Empire and from 1867 to 1918 Austria-Hungary."--Wikipedia.
