Age of Revolution and Reaction, 1789-1850 (History of Modern Europe)

The French Revolution has traditionally been viewed as a major dividing line in modern Europe's history, an event which destroyed that complex line in modern Europe's history, an event which destroyed that complex of political, social, legal and juridical institutions known as the "old regime" and inaugurated a new era characterized by a greater emphasis upon individual rights, the spread of representative government and the emergence of a new kind of loyalty to the nation. These generalizations about the French Revolution still retain much of their validity as long as they are qualified in some significant ways.

The Revolutionary Era, Third Edition, provides a vivid historical account of the forces that shaped early nineteenth-century Europe. Thoroughly revised and updated in light of recent scholarship, the text introduces compelling perspectives on the French and Industrial Revolutions, integrates new discussions of cultural and social history, and expands coverage of southern and eastern Europe. While preserving the integrity of earlier editions, new coauthor Matthew Levinger broadens the analysis by exploring the everyday experiences of the working classes with those of the political and social elites.
