In view of the challenges--many of which are political--that different European countries are currently facing, scholars who work on the eighteenth century have compiled this anthology which includes earlier recognitions of common values and past considerations of questions which often remain pertinent nowadays. During the Enlightenment, many men and women of letters envisaged the continent's future in particular when stressing their hope that peace could be secured in Europe. The texts gathered here, and signed by major thinkers of the time (Rousseau, Montesquieu, Voltaire, Kant, Hume or StaEl for instance), as well as by writers history has forgotten, present the reflections, with a couple of chronological extensions (from Sully to Victor Hugo) of authors from the long eighteenth century--the French Empire and the fall of Napoleon generated numerous upheavals--on Europe, its history, its diversity, but also on what the nations, which, in all their diversity, make up a geographical unit, have in common. They show the historical origins of the project of a European union, the desire to consolidate the continent's ties to the Maghreb or to Turkey, the importance granted to commerce and the worries engendered by history's convulsions, but also the hope vested in future generations. The Idea of Europe follows its sister edition in French, L'idEe de l'Europe au SiEcle des LumiEres, also published by Open Book.

Cameralism And The Enlightenment written by Ere Nokkala and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2019-11-26 with Business & Economics categories.
Cameralism and the Enlightenment reassesses the relationship between two key phenomena of European history often disconnected from each other. It builds on recent insights from global history, transnational history and Enlightenment studies to reflect on the dynamic interactions of cameralism, an early modern set of practices and discourses of statecraft prominent in central Europe, with the broader political, intellectual and cultural developments of the Enlightenment world. Through contributions from prominent scholars across the field of Enlightenment studies, the volume analyzes eighteenth-century cameralist authors’ engagements with commerce, colonialism and natural law. Challenging the caricature of cameralism as a German, land-locked version of mercantilism, the volume reframes its importance for scholars of the Enlightenment broadly conceived. This volume goes beyond the typical focus on Britain and France in studies of political economy, widening perspectives about the dissemination of ideas of governance, happiness and reform to focus on multidirectional exchanges across continental Europe and beyond during the eighteenth century. Emphasizing the practice of theory, it proposes the study of the porosity of ideas in their exchange, transmission and mediation between spaces and discourses as a key dimension of cultural and intellectual history.

Face aux dEfis - entre autres politiques - auxquels sont confrontEs diffErents pays europEens, les chercheurs dix-huitiEmistes ont souhaitE revenir sur des expressions anciennes de valeurs partagEes et les interrogations passEes sur des questions qui restent souvent d'actualitE. Au SiEcle des LumiEres, nombre d'hommes et de femmes de lettres ont envisagE l'avenir du continent en particulier pour entEriner leur souhait de garantir la paix en Europe. Les textes, rEunis dans cette anthologie, et signEs des grands Ecrivains du temps (Rousseau, Montesquieu, Voltaire, Kant, Hume ou encore StaEl), comme d'oubliEs de l'histoire, prEsentent, avec quelques excursus chronologiques (de Sully A Hugo) les rEflexions de penseurs d'un dix-huitiEme siEcle aux bornes chronologiques Etendues - l'Emergence et la chute de l'Empire engendrent des bouleversements nombreux -, sur l'Europe, son histoire, sa diversitE, mais aussi sur ce qu'ont en commun les nations qui composent, dans leur variEtE, un ensemble gEographique. Ils mettent en Evidence les origines historiques d'un projet d'union europEenne, le souhait de consolider les liens du continent avec le Maghreb ou la Turquie, l'importance accordEe au commerce et les inquiEtudes suscitEes par les sursauts de l'histoire, mais aussi l'espoir placE dans les gEnErations futures. La SociEtE franCaise d'Etude du XVIIIe siEcle, l'UniversitE d'Augsburg, l'UniversitE d'Oxford ont gEnEreusement contribuE A la publication de ce volume.

Europe And The Eastern Other written by Hassan Bashir and has been published by Rowman & Littlefield this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2013 with Philosophy categories.
Europe and the Eastern Other critically evaluates and supports the argument for adopting an intercultural or comparative approach in western political theory. Hassan Bashir examines the encounters between Europeans and their eastern others before the European Enlightenment and illustrates that the West's cultural others have played a foundational role in developing a distinct western cultural self-understanding. This analysis includes records of eyewitness accounts of European visitors in Eastern lands during the medieval and early modern periods, including William of Rubruck's account of the Mongol lands in mid-thirteenth century, observations of the first Jesuit mission in the court of Mughal Indian emperor Akbar the Great, and circumstances in late Ming China as recorded in the journals of Jesuit missionary and scholar Matteo Ricci. This work illustrates the dynamism and complexity involved in an inter-cultural encounter and highlights the fact that cultural self-understanding is often deeply rooted in how we understand our cultural others.
