In a major re-evaluation of the cultural, political, and sociological assumptions about the ""peculiar"" course of modern German history, the authors challenge the widely-held belief that Germany did not have a Western-style bourgeois revolution. Contending that it did indeed experience one, but that this had little to do with the mythical rising of the middle class, the authors provide a new context for viewing the tensions and instability of 19th-and early 20th-century Germany. 606 $aGermany -- History -- 1789-1900 -- Historiography 608 $aElectronic books. 615 4$aGermany -- History -- 1789-1900 -- Historiography. 676 $a943.07 700 $aBlackbourn$b David$f1949-$0218430 701 $aEley$b Geoff$f1949-$0140681 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458025503321 996 $aThe Peculiarities of German History$92033017 997 $aUNINA
