In Imperial Republics, Edward G. Andrew challenges the supposed incompatibility of these theories with regard to seventeenth- and eighteenth-century revolutions in England, the United States, and France.Many scholars have noted the influence of the Roman state on the ideology of republican revolutionaries, especially in the model it provided for transforming subordinate subjects into autonomous citizens. Andrew finds an equally important parallel between Rome's expansionary dynamic - in contrast to that of Athens, Sparta, or Carthage - and the imperial rivalries that emerged between the United States, France, and England in the age of revolutions. Imperial Republics is a sophisticated, wide-ranging examination of the intellectual origins of republican movements, and explains why revolutionaries felt the need to 'don the toga' in laying the foundation for their own uprisings. 606 $aPolitical science$zRome$xHistory 606 $aRepublicanism$zRome$xHistory 606 $aImperialism 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yRevolution, 1789-1799 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yCivil War, 1642-1649 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yRevolution, 1775-1783 607 $aFrance$xIntellectual life$y18th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xIntellectual life$y17th century 607 $aUnited States$xIntellectual life$y18th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPolitical science$xHistory. 615 0$aRepublicanism$xHistory. 615 0$aImperialism. 676 $a321.8/6 700 $aAndrew$b Edward$f1941-$0901398 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462026703321 996 $aImperial republics$92014788 997 $aUNINA
