Description

Europe 1783-1914 provides a comprehensive overview of Europe from the outbreak of the French Revolution to the origins of the First World War. This third edition combines accounts of key countries with the wider political, economic, social and cultural developments affecting Europe as a whole.

The book explores major themes such as the impact of the French Revolution, the spread of nationalism, changes in intellectual climate through Darwin and Freud's works, and the age of imperialism. Each chapter features concise background information, key dates, suggestions for further reading, and a 'Topics for Debate' section with relevant contemporary sources.

Updated with new books published up to 2014, this edition provides a valuable resource for understanding Europe during this pivotal period in history.
