Synopsis

A broad, comparative and trans-Atlantic approach to the Age of Revolutions
Cutting across disciplines and linguistic borders, this book explores the dissemination and transformation of revolutionary ideas in the period between the mid-eighteenth century and the revolutions of 1848. In addition to revolutionary movements in Europe and the United States, it deals with the international impact of the Haitian Revolution. 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.
