The Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars had an enduring influence on
the collective memory of all European nations and regions, and have
given them an international dimension. These essays look at how the

perspective.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Anlasslich des 250. Todestags des Baron de La Brede et de
Montesquieu veranstaltete die Berlin-Brandenburgische Akademie der
Wissenschaften ein Symposion, das auf die Aktualitat seines Oeuvres
abzielte. Namhafte franzosische und deutsche Sozial- und
GeisteswissenschaftlerInnen diskutierten Potenzen und Grenzen des
Operierens mit den Ideen dieses "philosophe" des 18. Jahrhunderts."
Bringing together leading scholars from across Europe, as well as
the United States, Africa and Asia, The European Way since Homer is
a three-volume journey through the political, cultural, religious,
intellectual, social and geographical history of Europe. It
synthesises over 150 chapters on topics from across the spectrum of
people, places, ideas, art, objects and events that have influenced
the shaping of the continent. In turn, this rich tapestry provides
us with unique insights into the nature of European identity, the
importance of European heritage and the relationship that exists
between Europe and the world beyond its boundaries. Volume 1 places
key ongoing issues in Europe within a deeper historical context. It
enriches our understanding of collective memory in Europe and the
impact this has for the world around us today. The roots of central
aspects of contemporary European life, including democracy, law,
reason, sexuality and equality, are traced, as is the importance of
prominent events, individuals and places in relation to the
subject. Volume 2 looks at both what brings Europeans together and
what pulls them apart through an examination of a series of
unifying or dividing principles, encompassing iconic figures and
archetypes, social frameworks and mental frameworks. Volume 3
investigates the different links between Europe and the rest of the
world. There is a focus on Europe's imperial past, as well as the
subsequent soft power of Europe and its constant commercial and
cultural exchanges with others parts of the world. The European Way
since Homer is a vital collection of volumes for all students and
scholars of European history.
