| Description | | - Examines the period 1800-1871 in considerably more depth than the competing titles and provides insight into later periods of German history
- Combines a narrative backbone, examining the major political and diplomatic events, with a set of analytical chapters on key themes such as culture and religion
- Combines material on often overlooked aspects of this period, such as economy and society, with material on hot topics such as gender and the public sphere
| | The years 1800-1871 were a crucial formative phase of modern German history. This volume, written by an international team of experts, provides a comprehensive overview of the era. It includes a narrative of the major political events and detailed studies of economy and society, culture and the arts, religion, gender, public life and the nation. An introduction and conclusion weave together the
different themes of the book and there is a detailed further reading section. |
