Nationalism and Revolution in Europe, 1763-1848 addresses enduring
historiographical problems concerning the appearance of the first
national movements in Europe and their role in the crises
associated with the Age of Revolution. Considerable detail is
supplied to the picture of Enlightenment era intellectual and
cultural pursuits in which the nation was featured as both an
object of theoretical interest and site of practice. In doing so,
the work provides a major corrective to depictions of the period
characteristic of earlier ventures -- including those by authors as
notable as Hobsbawm, Gellner, and Anderson -- while offering an
advance in narrative coherence by portraying how developments in
the sphere of ideas influenced the terms of political debate in
France and elsewhere in the years preceding the upheavals of
1789-1815. Subsequent chapters explore the composite nature of the
revolutions which followed and the challenges of determining the
relative capacity of the three chief sources of contemporary unrest
-- constitutional, national, and social -- to inspire extra-legal
challenges to the Restoration status quo.
