Nationalism: Political Cultures in Europe and America, 1775-1865: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Nationalism: Political Cultures in Europe and America, 1775-1865" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Nationalism is one of the most complex sources of conflicts and identities in the contemporary world, but few reports on current conflicts explain how nationalist ideas emerged and gained influence in modern world history. Lloyd Kramers lucid account of Western nationalisms during and after the era of the American and French Revolutions thus provides a valuable, concise description of political, religious, and literary ideas that still shape national identities, even when the historical origins of these ideas are forgotten or ignored. Kramer uses numerous examples from specific writings to show how nationalist ideas appeared in the works of authors such as J. G. Fichte, Jules Michelet, Adam Mickiewicz, Joseph Mazzini, George Bancroft, and Ralph Waldo Emerson. Kramer explains how nationalist beliefs and identities evolved at the same time on both sides of the Atlantic and demonstrates how cultural and intellectual history can offer much needed analytical perspectives for understanding nationalisms that still flourish throughout the modern world.

Acknowledgments

This book is a much-revised version of a work that originally appeared in 1998. Twayne Publishers produced that book as part of a series entitled Studies in Intellectual and Cultural History (edited by Michael Roth). The earlier edition carried a different title and included only six chapters; the final two chapters of this book are therefore completely new. All other chapters, as well as the introduction and conclusion, have been significantly revised and updated. The bibliography and notes have also been extensively revised to include new scholarship that has emerged over the last fifteen years. There are new maps and numerous new images, and the title has been changed to reflect more accurately the books expanded contents. I would like to thank Charles Scribners Sons for releasing all obligations from the former edition.

I would also like to acknowledge the assistance and support of others who helped to make this book possible. Thoughtful, critical-minded students have pushed me to rethink the evolving history of nationalism as we have discussed transnational historical questions in various classes at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC). I particularly remember the emotionally charged discussions in a UNC undergraduate course on nationalism during the fall semester of 2001a time in which contemporary events gave students a new sense of personal engagement with the historical meaning of nationalism in the United States. Unexpected, complex events provoke each generation to bring new perspectives and questions to the study of the past, which helps to explain why the teaching of history is really a process of lifelong learning.

I have benefited greatly from the astute comments of faculty colleagues in UNCs History Department, in the Triangle Area Intellectual History Seminar, and in the Triangle Area French Studies Seminar. The seminars meet regularly at the National Humanities Center in North Carolinas Research Triangle Park, and they provide exceptional opportunities for exchanging ideas and responding to new research. Regular participants in these various seminarsincluding Don Reid, Jay Smith, Jim Winders, Steven Vincent, Linda Orr, Bill Reddy, Keith Luria, Mary Sheriff, Dan Sherman, Anoush Terjanian, Melissa Bullard, Malachai Hacohen, Anthony LaVopa, Martin Miller, and others too numerous to namehave enriched my understanding of modern history in more ways than I can acknowledge here. I am grateful to all of these colleagues and friends for their encouragement and insights.

I thank Chuck Grench, Jay Mazzocchi, and their talented colleagues at UNC Press who have helped to produce this book. I have also relied on numerous librarians and archivists for assistance in collecting illustrations for this volume (specific institutions are acknowledged in credits for the images); and I thank Bill Nelson for designing the maps. I began to plan a new version of this book when I was a fellow at the National Humanities Center (NHC) in 20023. I gained a great deal from the conversations with other NHC fellows and from the extraordinary support of the centers outstanding staff. I have also benefited more recently from the generous support of a Kenan Research Fellowship at UNC and a Chapman Family Fellowship at UNCs Institute for the Arts and Humanities (IAH), both of which made it possible for me to complete this book. The IAH is an active, creative center for interdisciplinary seminars and conferences that have often carried me into new intellectual territories and imaginative communities.

Finally, I thank my wife, Gwynne Pomeroy; my son, Kyle Kramer; and my daughter, Renee Kramer, for the diverse, enriching experiences that I share with each of these special people. I deeply value the knowledge and insights they bring to our unpredictable, ongoing conversations. This book is dedicated to Kyle and Renee, who live with curiosity and imagination amid the transnational cultures of the twenty-first century.
