HIST 326 - Nineteenth Century Europe

This course will focus on events and developments during the “long nineteenth century” - from the end of the Napoleonic Wars until the outbreak of World War I. Through books and lecture materials we will explore the experience and results of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic era, Romanticism, liberal nationalism, the revolutionary movements of 1848, industrialization, the society and culture of the Victorian Era, political shifts of the late century, and the tensions leading to the war.

Prerequisites
Although there is no pre-requisite for this course, we will be building on what most of you have learned in other lower-level courses on Modern European history.
