Taylor & Francis Ltd Colonialism Race and the French Romantic
Book SynopsisThis book investigates how French Romanticism was shaped by and contributed to colonial discourses of race. It studies the ways in which metropolitan Romantic novelsthat is, novels by French authors such as Victor Hugo, George Sand, Bernardin de Saint-Pierre, François René de Chateaubriand, Claire de Duras, and Prosper Mériméecomprehend and construct colonized peoples, fashion French identity in the context of colonialism, and record the encounter between Europeans and non-Europeans. While the primary texts that come under investigation in the book are novels, close attention is paid to Romantic fiction's interdependence with naturalist treatises, travel writing, abolitionist texts, and ethnographies. Colonialism, Race, and the French Romantic Imagination is one of the first books to carry out a sustained and comprehensive analysis of the French Romantic novel's racial imagination that encompasses several sites of colonial contact: the Indian Ocean, North America, thTable of ContentsNote on Translations, Pratima Prasad; Introduction, Pratima Prasad; Chapter 1 The White Native, Pratima Prasad; Chapter 2 The Métis, Pratima Prasad; Chapter 3 The Disciplined Savage, Pratima Prasad; Chapter 4 The Black Aristocrat, Pratima Prasad; Chapter 5 The Rebellious Slave, Pratima Prasad; Chapter 102 Epilogue, Pratima Prasad;

Taylor & Francis The Decline and Fall of the Habsburg Empire 18151918 Assorted cover image
Book SynopsisA new and revised edition of Alan Skedâs groundbreaking book which examines how the Habsburg Empire survived the revolutionary turmoil of 1848.âThe Year of Revolutions', saw the whole of Europe convulsed in turmoil and revolt. Yet the Habsburg Empire survived. As state after state succumbed to the violent winds of change that were sweeping the continent. How did the Habsburg Empire survive? How was the army able hold together while the rest of the empire collapsed in civil war, and how was it able to seize the political initiative In this new edition, Alan Sked reflects on the changed understanding of the period which resulted from the first appearance of this book, and widens the discussion to look at the Habsburg Empire alongside the decline of the Russian and German Empires, arguing that it is possible to understand their decline from a broad European perspective, as opposed to the overly narrow focus of recent explanations. Alan Sked makes us look at familiar events with new eyes in this radical, vigorously written classic which is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of nineteenth-century Europe.Trade Review'This is a book to be savoured and relished...rich in anecdote, irony, paradox, and intelligence, it is a must for anyone...looking for an example of historical writing in its most lively, informative and attractive form.'
