| Abstract | "Now in its 2nd edition, "Bourgeois Europe, 1850-1914" is a general history of Europe from the middle of the nineteenth century to the outbreak of the First World War, a successor to "Revolutionary Europe, 1780-1850," also available from Routledge. The book offers wide geographic coverage of the European continent, from the Artic Circle to the Mediterranean and from the Atlantic to the Urals. Topical coverage is equally broad, including major trends and events in international relations and domestic politics, in social and gender structures, in the economy, and in the natural and social sciences, the humanities, religion and the arts. For this second edition, the text has been completely revised, the latest directions in historical research considered, the bibliography brought up to date, and special attention has been paid to Europe's global interactions with the rest of the world and the structures and norms of gender relations. Tables, charts, maps, and other explanatory features help students explore further in the areas that interest them. Written in sprightly, jargon-free clear prose, the book is ideal for use as a text in secondary school or university courses, as well as for general readers wishing an overview of a crucial era of modern European history"-- Provided by publisher. |
