Reverberations of Revolution - Transnational Perspectives, 1770-1850

A broad, comparative and trans-Atlantic approach to the Age of Revolutions Cutting across disciplines and linguistic borders, this book highlights revolutionary movements in Europe, the United States, and the Caribbean between the mid-eighteenth century and the revolutions of 1848. The chapters in the book adopt transnational approaches to revolution to show how political uprisings often reverberated far beyond the borders of the states directly affected - in the form of narratives, metaphors, translations, letters, pamphlets and dialogues, as well as physical objects.
