Yet, less than a hundred years later, Europe's most powerful ruler--Emperor William I of Germany--paid homage to Wagner by traveling to Bayreuth to attend...

Blanning explores the cultural revolution which transformed eighteenth-century Europe.

History and Biography: Essays in Honour of Derek Beales
ISBN: 9780521893176 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. For too long, too many historians have been too much concerned with impersonal forces, underlying structures and long-term developments. Now, "people" are back. In a postmodern age it is easier to appreciate the decisive role played by individuals, as they ride their luck and seize their opportunity to bend the world to their will. As these essays by twelve eminent historians demonstrate, biography is too important to be left to the amateurs. Among the rich variety of strong characters analyzed here are an Austrian emperor, a German kaiser, a Victorian prime minister, an Italian dictator, and...
