Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"Winner of the István Hont Book Prize, Institute of Intellectual History"
"An imaginative and intriguing book. . . . [Case’s] book is a dazzling display of erudition, with a little over 200 pages of elegant, witty text supported by a hundred pages of densely packed endnotes."---Jonathan Sperber, Times Literary Supplement
"Joining erudition with a poetic if occasionally enigmatic style, this book shivers with the restless spirit of the age it describes."---Ian P Beacock, Los Angeles Review of Books
"By systemizing her material into diverse arguments, and letting them contend with each other, Case convincingly shows how each carries a historiographic truth that is as plausible as all the others." * Connections *
"This book is a brilliant interrogation of the code in which the nineteenth century tells its contradictory story."---Stefan-Ludwig Hoffmann, Journal of Modern History
