Jacobites

en Limba Engleză Hardback – 5 apr 2019
The Jacobites: Britain and Europe, 1688-1788 is a completely revised global survey of the Jacobite phenomenon. Exploring Jacobitism in England, Ireland, Scotland, Europe and the wider world, it offers a fresh interpretation of the Jacobites' impact on the development of modern Britain and Europe. Jacobitism is one of the most hotly debated subjects in eighteenth-century British history. This book examines the state of the field, introducing students to the latest research and leading them through the history of the subject from its populist counter-revolutionary origins in 1688 to its final, obscure demise in Rome in 1788. Professor Szechi clearly explains what Jacobitism was, what it did and who the Jacobites were - focusing in particular on their socio-economic status, social networks and religious affiliations. The twenty-five years since the publication of the first edition have seen a wave of new research that has completely changed our understanding of the ideology of Jacobitism, popular Jacobitism throughout the British Isles, the significance of Ireland and the impact of the Jacobite diaspora on European politics. All this new knowledge is brought to bear in a comprehensive analytical account of the Jacobite movement. Providing an up-to-date synthesis of our knowledge of the Jacobite cause and its impact on the politics, society and peoples of the British Isles, this book will be particularly useful for A-level and undergraduate students of eighteenth-century history, as well as general readers looking for an explanation of a much-misunderstood phenomenon.
