Nothing Happened
Émigrés and Migrations during the French Revolution
The French Revolution profoundly influenced many of the ideas and institutions that created the modern world. This far-reaching revolutionary upheaval drew widely on eighteenth-century Enlightenment culture to construct and spread modern ideas about human rights, republicanism, legal equality, nationalism, and the value of scientific knowledge. At the same time, France’s revolutionary leaders began to create new institutions that France and other…
The Enduring Public Struggle to Construct, Control, and Challenge Historical Memories
Sumit Guha's History and Collective Memory in South Asia, 1200-2000 develops important arguments about the public significance of historical knowledge and the essential role of historians in public life. All societies need collective memories to sustain their cultural identities, as Guha shows in this wide-ranging account of how such memories have been constructed in South Asian societies since the thirteenth century. The knowledge of historical …
Frank Palmeri. State of Nature, Stages of Society
The origins of the modern social sciences are often traced to the eighteenth-century European cultural turn toward scientific methods and empirical knowledge. Frank Palmeri’s insightful analysis of influential modern European thinkers argues, however, that some of the Enlightenment era’s most influential cultural legacies came from “conjectural histories” that provided almost no empirical evidence to support wide-ranging speculations on the early…
Brian E. Vick. The Congress of Vienna
Traditional historical accounts of international treaty negotiations have given way to new kinds of diplomatic history that often intersect with modern cultural history, as Brian E. Vick astutely demonstrates in his new book on the Congress of Vienna. Although this famous gathering of the European allies who destroyed Napoleon’s French Empire has frequently been viewed as a triumphant, counterrevolutionary event, Vick describes both the diplomati…

Concluding Reflections
The history of borderland regions, peoples, and cultural exchanges has become one of the most innovative areas of contemporary historical scholarship, as the wide-ranging, perceptive chapters in this collection clearly demonstrate.1 Although the preceding essays focus on the two centuries between 1720 and 1920 and deal mainly with European and American societies, they examine themes that are also relevant for other historical eras and for borderl…

Robert R. Palmer and the History of Big Questions
This article discusses R. R. Palmer's interest in communicating with a broad audience on subjects of transnational political and cultural significance. His approach to historical writing shows the value of synthetic narratives, the importance of a lucid prose style, and the uses of history for the exploration of enduring political issues. Although Palmer's work reflects the preoccupations and scholarship of his own twentieth-century academic cont…

Gerard Noiriel's Pragmatic Quest for Paradigms
Historians have always disagreed about the causes and consequences of past events, but Gerard Noiriel argues in his important recent book that they now differ even more profoundly in their views of the social and intellectual objectives of their professional lives.' Although many historians might welcome these increasingly diverse social identities and research methodologies as signs of professional vitality, Noiriel worries that fragmentation an…
Historical Narratives and the Meaning of Nationalism
Historical Narratives and the Meaning of Nationalism Lloyd Kramer The vast, expanding literature on nationalism may well defy every generalization except a familiar, general theme of intellectual history: texts about nationalism have always drawn their perspectives and passions from the evolving political and cultural contexts in which their authors have lived. Modern accounts of nationalism show the unmistakable traces of political, military, an…

America's Lafayette and Lafayette's America
HE marquis de Lafayette's participation in the American Revolution was an extraordinary success. Americans took to him more warmly than they did to any other foreigner during the war, and he remained their favorite European throughout long life and for the remainder of the nineteenth century.1 Few outsiders have ever achieved such popularity or played such a vital role in the revolution of another country. Lafayette recognized that the American W…

The Rights of Man
Although the critics and supporters of the marquis de Lafayette from his time to our own have rarely agreed on politics, ideology, or Lafayette's significance in European history, they almost all share the judgment that his long military and political career gave expression to an unchanging liberal political creed. Critics have always charged that Lafayette's adherence to this creed blinded him to political and economic realities and assured his …

Lafayette in Two Worlds
This text traces the wide-ranging influence of Lafayette's public and personal life, including his contributions to the emergence of nationalist ideologies in Europe and America, his extensive connection with liberal political theorists, and his close friendships with prominent writers. Lloyd Kramer argues that Lafayette's experiences reveal how public figures can symbolize the aspirations of a society as a whole
