In 1848 the continent of Europe was rocked by revolutions: only
Great Britain and Russia remained relatively immune to the
upheaval. Most spectacularly, the Revolutions swept across the
German-speaking lands of central Europe, with the newly-released
forces of nationalism and mass popular protest smashing the
reactionary Metternich regimes which had held sway since the defeat
of Napoleon. The Metternich system was dead: nationalism and
national self-determination asserted themselves as the dominant
dynamic forces of continental Europe in the later nineteenth
century. This impressive history examines the political and social
implications of the 1848 Revolutions for the future destiny and
shape of Europe as a whole, and explores the wider forces at play
in the German lands of nineteenth-century Europe.
