This important book offers fresh critical insights in the long lasting political, ideological 　and cultural resonance of European and transatlantic revolutions between 1770 and 1850. Challenging teleological concepts of revolution, a series of sophisticated case studies explores how ideas, texts, and objects are transformed and appropriated in new contexts.
