Beschreibung

<p><b>"Conservational and erudite."</b><b>--<i>Wall Street Journal</i></b></p><b>A renowned Pulitzer Prize-winning historian recounts the dramatic tale of modern Europe's ascent.</b><p>In <i>The Mighty Continent: A Candid History of Modern Europe</i>, Walter McDougall, winner of the Pulitzer Prize and professor of history at the University of Pennsylvania, provides readers with a sweeping historical narrative that takes in the political, economic, social, intellectual, and cultural developments in the major European nations from the fifteenth to the twenty-first century.</p><p>Along the way, McDougall provides new insights on and interpretations of the Renaissance, the Protestant and Catholic Reformations, the Age of Exploration, the Scientific, French, and Industrial Revolutions, the sources of modernism, the origins of World War I, the rise of totalitarianism, the advance of the European Union, the collapse of communism, and much else.</p><p>Comprehensive yet compact, objective yet unabashed, attuned to European failings yet refreshingly free from cloying moralism, <i>The Mighty Continent</i> is history as it used to be: exciting, uplifting, ironic, not infrequently tragic--and, above all, fair to the figures who made modern Europe so world-shakingly powerful and inescapably influential.</p>
