Excerpt from Introduction à l'Histoire du Xixe Siècle<br/><br/>Si l'on peut déduire quelques lois de letude de l'bis toire, on doit les faire découler uniquement de ce qui est connu et accepté de tous, comme indiscutable; et ce sont de tels faits seuls qui figureront ici, exposés aussi claire ment et aussi méthodiquement que possible. La faible partie de considérations étrangères qui y est jointe est une ajoute volontaire, une déduction philosophique des événements historiques eux  mêmes, elle est affranchie de tout l'appareil pédantesque du système et de tout l'at tirail des sophismes.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an in-depth examination of the period between the fall of the French empire and the Congress of Vienna, focusing on the interplay of ideas and their impact on historical events. The author analyzes the transition from aristocratic to democratic forms of government and the rise of absolutism in both ancient Greece and early modern Europe. The book also explores the Protestant Reformation's role in challenging papal and imperial authority, highlighting the contrast between German Protestantism's emphasis on individualism and the more monarchical nature of its counterparts in England and France. Ultimately, the author argues that the clash between Latin and Germanic cultures during this era shaped the development of modern Europe, with absolutism serving as a catalyst for both democratic and despotic tendencies. This book offers valuable insights into the complex interplay of power, religion, and culture in shaping the course of human history.
