The author argues that most developments in German culture, society, and politics throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries were caused by wider global and transnational trends. A history of the German people rather than the German state, the book focusses on non-state and non-government actors, intercultural transfers, and applies the approach of ?thick description? to analysing the creation of German culture, society, and identity from the era of the Napoleonic wars right up to the present post-unification Germany. This includes an examination of German migrants? journeys to their new homes in the Americas and, thus, the creation of a global German diaspora with cultural and social networks beyond its home country?s borders. The book further focusses on the transfers that connected German society and culture with those of other countries; for instance, chapters cover the transfer of football from England to Germany, the transfer of the Christmas holiday tradition from Germany to other countries, and the development of eugenics in Germany within its global context. Thomas Adam is Professor of Political Science at the University of Arkansas, USA. From 2001 to 2020 he taught transnational and transatlantic history at the University of Texas at Arlington. He has published and edited over 25 books and specialises in the study of intercultural transfers and the history of philanthropy. Among his most recent publications are Deutschland in der Welt (2021), The History of College Affordability in the United States (2020) and Approaches to the Study of Intercultural Transfer (2019). Adam is also editor of the book series on Intercultural Transfer Studies. He has taught classes on German history in a global setting for a quarter of a century at the University of Toronto, the University of Texas at Arlington, and now at the University of Arkansas. 606 $aEurope, Central$xHistory 606 $aWorld history 606 $aWorld politics 606 $aHistory, Modern 606 $aCivilization$xHistory 606 $aSocial history 606 $aHistory of Germany and Central Europe 606 $aWorld History, Global and Transnational History 606 $aPolitical History 606 $aModern History 606 $aCultural History 606 $aSocial History 615 0$aEurope, Central$xHistory. 615 0$aWorld history. 615 0$aWorld politics. 615 0$aHistory, Modern. 615 0$aCivilization$xHistory. 615 0$aSocial history. 615 14$aHistory of Germany and Central Europe. 615 24$aWorld History, Global and Transnational History. 615 24$aPolitical History. 615 24$aModern History. 615 24$aCultural History. 615 24$aSocial History. 676 $a306.0943 700 $aAdam$b Thomas$0903259 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910890189503321 996 $aGermany and the World Since 1815$94264228 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01272nam0 22002891i 450 001 UON00042093 005 20231205102150.581 100 $a20020107d1971 |0itac50 ba 101 $afre 102 $aFR 105 $a||||b ||||| 200 1 $aMusée du Louvre, Département des Antiquités Orientales$eGuide sommaire$fpar Pierre Amiet 210 $aParis$cEditions des Musées Nationaux$d1971 215 $a167 p.$cill.$d17 c 300 $aSulla copertina : Les Antiquités orientales au Musée du Louvre 517 1$3UON00355914$aˆLes ‰Antiquités orientales au Musée du Louvre 606 $aArte$xVicino Oriente antico$xCollezioni e musei$3UONC014355$2FI 620 $aFR$dParis$3UONL002984 686 $aVOA IX M$cVICINO ORIENTE ANTICO - ARTE - MUSEI E COLLEZIONI$2A 700 1$aAMIET$bPierre$3UONV001525$0218823 712 $aMusées Nationaux$3UONV249098$4650 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20251003$gRICA 899 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$2UONSI 912 $aUON00042093 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI VOA IX M 007 $eSI ARC2840 7 007 996 $aMusée du Louvre, Département des Antiquités Orientales$91153385 997 $aUNIOR
