Drawing on extensive research into the associations' organisation, policies and tactics, this study argues that French veterans were more of a threat to democracy than previous scholarship has allowed. As France descended into crisis, the UF and the UNC sought to extend their influence into the non-veteran milieu through public demonstrations, propaganda campaigns and the foundation of auxiliary groups. Despite shifting policies and independent initiatives, by the end of the 1930s the UF and the UNC had come together in a campaign for authoritarian political reform, leaving them perfectly placed to become the 'eyes and ears' of Marshal Pe?tain's Vichy regime. Offering an original contribution to the history of late Third Republican political culture, From victory to Vichy will appeal to students and scholars of modern France and Europe."--Provided by publisher. 410 0$aCultural history of modern war. 606 $aWorld War, 1914-1918$xVeterans$zFrance$xSocieties, etc$xHistory 606 $aVeterans$zFrance$xSocieties, etc$xHistory 607 $aFrance$xHistory$y1914-1940 607 $aFrance$xPolitics and government$y1914-1940 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWorld War, 1914-1918$xVeterans$xSocieties, etc.$xHistory. 615 0$aVeterans$xSocieties, etc.$xHistory. 676 $a369.244 700 $aMillington$b Chris$01036096 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462357803321 996 $aFrom victory to Vichy$92456232 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04650nam 2200769Ia 450 001 9910788369603321 005 20211012024531.0 010 $a1-283-88943-9 010 $a0-8122-0005-5 024 7 $a10.9783/9780812200058 035 $a(CKB)3170000000046982 035 $a(OCoLC)794700616 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebrary10576119 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000605781 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11371986 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000605781 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10574902 035 $a(PQKB)11138242 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse8339 035 $a(DE-B1597)448967 035 $a(OCoLC)1013936377 035 $a(OCoLC)979881020 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780812200058 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3441678 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10576119 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL420193 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3441678 035 $a(EXLCZ)993170000000046982 100 $a20100203d2010 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 14$aThe birth of orientalism$b[electronic resource] /$fUrs App 210 $aPhiladelphia $cUniversity of Pennsylvania Press$dc2010 215 $a1 online resource (569 p.) 225 1 $aEncounters with Asia 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 0 $a0-8122-2346-2 311 0 $a0-8122-4261-0 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $tFront matter --$tContents --$tList of Figures and Tables --$tPreface --$tIntroduction --$tChapter 1.

Based on sources from a dozen languages, many unavailable in English, The Birth of Orientalism presents a completely new picture of this protracted genesis, its underlying dynamics, and the Western discovery of Asian religions from the sixteenth to the nineteenth century. App documents the immense influence of Japan and China and describes how the Near Eastern cradle of civilization moved toward mother India. Moreover, he shows that some of India's purportedly oldest texts were products of eighteenth-century European authors. Though Western engagement with non-Abrahamic Asian religions reaches back to antiquity and can without exaggeration be called the largest-scale religiocultural encounter in history, it has so far received surprisingly little attention-which is why some of its major features and their role in the birth of modern Orientalism are described here for the first time. The study of Asian documents had a profound impact on Europe's intellectual makeup. Suddenly the Bible had much older competitors from China and India, Sanskrit threatened to replace Hebrew as the world's oldest language, and Judeo-Christianity appeared as a local phenomenon on a dramatically expanded, worldwide canvas of religions and mythologies. Orientalists were called upon as arbiters in a clash that involved neither gold and spices nor colonialism and imperialism but, rather, such fundamental questions as where we come from and who we are: questions of identity that demanded new answers as biblical authority dramatically waned. 410 0$aEncounters with Asia. 606 $aOrientalism$zEurope$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aReligions$xStudy and teaching$xHistory$y18th century 607 $aAsia$xReligion$xStudy and teaching$xHistory$y18th century 607 $aEurope$xIntellectual life$y18th century 610 $aAfrican Studies. 610 $aAnthropology. 610 $aAsian Studies. 610 $aFolklore. 610 $aLinguistics. 610 $aMiddle Eastern Studies. 610 $aPhilology and Linguistics. 615 0$aOrientalism$xHistory 615 0$aReligions$xStudy and teaching$xHistory 676 $a294 700 $aApp$b Urs$f1949-$0647281 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788369603321 996 $aThe birth of orientalism$93840573 997 $aUNINA
