  • War and Peace in Europe from Napoleon to the Kaiser: the Wars of German Unification, 1864- 1871 Transcript
    War and Peace in Europe from Napoleon to the Kaiser: The Wars of German Unification, 1864- 1871 Transcript Date: Thursday, 4 February 2010 - 12:00AM Location: Museum of London The Wars of German Unification 1864-1871 Professor Richard J Evans 4/2/2010 Of all the war that took place in the nineteenth century, perhaps the most effective in gaining their objectives, the most carefully delimited in scope, the best planned, and the most clinically and efficiently executed, were the three wars fought by Prussia in the 1860s, against Denmark, against Austria, and against France. Not all of them went entirely to plan, as we shall see, particularly not the last of the three, but all of them were in nearly all respects classic examples of limited war, of the Prussian military theorist Carl von Clausewitz's dictum that war is politics continued by other means. After the muddle, incompetence and indecisiveness of the Crimean War, the wars of the 1860s seemed to belong to another world. How and why were these three wars fought? I argued in my earlier lectures that the 1848 Revolutions, though they failed in many if not most respects, undermined the international order established at the Congress of Vienna in 1815, opening up the international scene to new initiatives and instabilities. The joker in the pack here was the French Emperor Napoleon III, whose search for foreign glory and foreign victories as a way of legitimating his dictatorial rule at home led him into one military adventure after another, some successful, others less so. It was among other things French military intervention that secured victory for Piedmont-Sardinia over the Austrians in 1859, though the drive for Italian unity then became unstoppable, thanks not least to the activities of the revolutionary nationalist Giuseppe Garibaldi, much to Napoleon III's discomfiture.

I will be your chair for the weekend of MUNUC, during which time I’ll represent Giuseppe Mazzini. I’m incredibly excited to welcome you to a little-known (and less understood) time in history! The Roman Republic of 1849 represents how people tried to bring ideals of individuality, freedom, and equality to reality. Although the real-world Republic fell to a French invasion, I hope that you can gather your creativity, knowledge, and collaboration to change history and build a Republic that will last. I’m a current senior at the University of Chicago, studying Biology with a specialization in Endocrinology on the pre-medical track. I staff MUNUC, run our collegiate conference ChoMUN as Director-General, and compete on our travel team. Outside of MUN, I do research in a genetic neurobiology lab with fruit flies, volunteer at the UChicago Hospital, and TA for courses such as Organic Chemistry, Genetics, and Core Biology. I also like to write poetry, paint, and perform Shakespeare! If at any point you want to share something or ask a question, on anything from your favorite novel to college life, just reach out to me at [email protected].

    Heir of the Month: The Second Year (2014-15) www.heirstothethrone-project.net 2 H Preface As we look back on another year of our „Heirs to the Throne“ project, we find that our topic really is a gift that keeps on giving. The members and friends of the St Andrews team have written another dozen “Heir of the Month” essays and the variety of the topics addressed and perspectives chosen has proved to be as colourful as ever. Our monthly offerings have dealt with countries as far-flung as Mexico, Portugal, Greece and Spain – along with old favourites such as France, Prussia, Italy and Britain – and have gazed through analytical lenses as diverse as motor cars, sepulchral monuments, choreographed travel, marriage diplomacy or literary responses to royal topics. We are happy to collate our second clutch of twelve essays into another freely available “Royal Annual” for ease of access and to mark the ongoing commitment of our AHRC- funded venture to communicating our work and our ideas to a wide circle of readers with an interest in the history of the monarchical nineteenth century. We are delighted to take this opportunity to thank the AHRC and the School of History for their continued support of our activities.

    HISTORY History Historical Investigations and Interpretations Unit AS 1 Option 4: Italy and Germany 1815–71 Content Page Introduction 2 1. Germany 1815–48 3 2. German Unification 1849–71 8 3. Italy 1815–48 16 4. Italian Unification 1849–70 21 HISTORY Introduction In this option, students focus on the unification of Italy and Germany between 1815 and 1871. Students analyse the growth of liberalism, nationalism and cultural movements in the period 1815–48, concentrating, in particular, on the causes and reasons for the failure of the revolutions that broke out in Italy and Germany in 1848. The main focus is on the unification process in both countries. Students examine the contribution of individuals such as Bismarck and Cavour, economic developments and the favourable international situation. This option is assessed in a written examination lasting one hour 30 minutes. Candidates answer two questions. Question 1 is a short response question and candidates answer one question from a choice of two. Question 2 is a source-based question with two parts. In Question 2(a) candidates assess the usefulness of a primary and/or contemporary source to an historian studying a particular historical event or development. In Question 2(b) candidates assess which of two different interpretations of a particular historical event or development they find more convincing. Question 1 targets Assessment Objective AO1: the candidate’s ability to demonstrate, organise and communicate knowledge and understanding to analyse and evaluate the key features related to the periods studied, making substantiated judgements and exploring concepts, as relevant, of cause, consequence, change, continuity, similarity, difference and significance.

    OFFENSIVE SPENDING: TACTICS AND PROCUREMENT IN THE HABSBURG MILITARY, 1866-1918 by JOHN ANTHONY DREDGER B.A., St. Mary’s College, 1993 M.A., University of Kansas, 1996 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2013 Abstract This manuscript reveals the primary causes of Habsburg defeat both in 1866 and in 1914- 1918. The choice of offensive strategy and tactics against an enemy possessing superior weaponry in the Austro-Prussian War and opponents with superior numbers and weapons in the First World War resulted in catastrophe. The inferiority of the Habsburg forces in both wars stemmed from imprudent spending decisions during peacetime rather than conservatism or parliamentary stinginess. The desire to restore the sunken prestige of Austria-Hungary and prove Habsburg great power status drove the military to waste money on an expensive fleet and choose offensive tactics to win great victories. This study shows the civil-military interaction in regard to funding and procurement decisions as well as the deep intellectual debates within the army, which refute the idea that the Habsburg military remained opposed to technology or progress.
