Описание: Throughout the 1800s the process of industrialization contributed to painful social upheaval and wrenching political readjustments in the Kingdom of Prussia, traditionally viewed as Europe`s great, modernizing, economic leader.

Описание: The story of how the US women`s rights movement began at the Seneca Falls convention of 1848 is a cherished American myth. The standard account credits founders such as Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony with defining and then leading the campaign for women`s suffrage. In her provocative new history, Lisa Tetrault demonstrates that Stanton, Anthony, and their peers created and popularised this origins story in response to internal movement dynamics as well as the racial politics of memory after the Civil War.
Описание: The American Civil War brought with it a crisis of nationalism. Shifting Grounds reinterprets southern conceptions of allegiance, identity, and citizenship within the contexts of antebellum American national identity and the transatlantic "Age of Nationalism."

Описание: The idea of a 'Springtime of European Peoples', concepts of a universal republic and the awareness for the European dimension of the revolutionary events had an important impact on the ideas of 1848. They were reflected in songs, pamphlets and political statements. However, the meanings of 1848 - its histories and memories - change over time and according to different political, regional and national contexts. The initial idealism was soon replaced by nationalist aggressiveness. In most commemorations, the revolution appeared as a national event within the national histories of nation-states. This perspective only changed in 1998, on the occasion of its 150 years' anniversary, when historians, poiiticains and the public rediscovered 1848 as a European revolution, legitimising the rescue of the nation-state. 1848: A European Revolution? analyses the dichotomy between the international dimension within the ideas of the revolution and the nationalisation of memories in its commemorations over the past 150 years.
