As nation states consolidated their power in the early modern
period, Europe witnessed tragic economic dislocations, oppression,
and wars leading to waves of terrorism and revolution that mirror
our contemporary world situation in striking ways. Current
perceptions of the dynamics of revolution, however, are largely
determined by theoretical models that fail to account for the
realities of the early modern peiod. This volume, the first
comparative study of the three insurrections that erupted almost
simultaneously during the War of the Spanish Succession, addresses
that problem. Using their careful review of historical events as a
focus, Linda Frey and Marsha Frey explore the nature and causes of
revolution and examine the preconceptions and mythology surrounding
that term.
