Description
The period between 1830 and 1880 was one of immense activity, radical political change, and striking economic and social growth in Europe. The major themes of the struggles between individuals, parties and classes within the state, and between the states themselves are explored within the context of a study of the administration, organisation and growth of European society.
The whole book has been fully revised and updated, particularly the section on German history. Professor Hearder has also given greater consideration to many important issues, such as, popular movements of protest and insurrection, life-styles, and the role of women.
Reviews
'Europe in the Nineteenth Century is lucid enough for even the casual reader of history. For the advanced student, the book is a real gem: Hearder is a master of the tongue-in-cheek historical statement and understatement xxx; Hearder's second edition is a must for any scholar of European history.'
