DESCRIPTION
This unit explores the political, social, cultural and economic history of Europe between c.1660 and 1815. Europe's 'long eighteenth century' was a crucial period in shaping both modern Europe and the world. The unit explores both western and eastern Europe, with case-studies from Britain, France, Russia and Germany. Investigates the rise of the modern state; war and international rivalry; social and economic change and continuity; popular culture and everyday life; the ideas of the Enlightenment, the relationship between Europe and the 'New World'; the struggle for natural rights and liberties; and the French Revolution and Napoleon.
