Description

Focusing on the rise of nationalism and the causes of political ascendancy, this important new survey charts the Austro-Prussian relationship and its impact on Germany. Was Prussia's victory inevitable, or was it an accident? Breuilly weighs up the evidence and shows how the different approaches reflect above all shifts of interest within historical study. Appropriate as introductory text for 1st and 2nd year undergraduates of Nineteenth Century Europe, German History and History of Nationalism.

Backcover Copy

Prussia and Austria were the two most powerful German states in the nineteenth century, and on their relationship depended the political fate of Germany as a whole. This book considers the changing nature of that relationship from 1806, when Austria and Prussia had been excluded from any influence in the rest of Germany by the power of Napoleon, to 1866 when Prussia defeated Austria in war and took control in north and central Germany, and then went on in 1870-71, having defeated France; to bring the remaining German states under her domination.
Setting that relationship within its German and European contexts, the book:

  • provides a narrative of Austro-Prussian relations
  •  plots the shifts between cooperation and competition
  • considers the final phase of conflict which culminated in war
  •  analyses the strengths and weaknesses of the two states relative to each other
Written in an accessible and engaging style, the book also contains a strong selection of documents, chronology, maps, glossary, a 'Who's Who' guide to key figures and a guide to further reading to provide students with an invaluable introduction to this key period in European history. John Breuilly is Professor of Modern History at the University of Birmingham.
