Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Francis Joseph: Emperor of Austria--King of Hungary' is a comprehensive biographical study of one of the longest-reigning monarchs in modern European history. Written by Eugene S. Bagger, this work explores the life and political legacy of the man whose sixty-eight-year reign defined the final era of the Habsburg Empire. From his ascension during the turbulent revolutions of 1848 to the twilight of his dynasty during the First World War, the narrative captures the internal and external pressures that shaped the Dual Monarchy.Bagger provides a detailed examination of the Emperor's character, his rigid adherence to tradition, and his efforts to maintain a multi-ethnic empire in the face of burgeoning nationalism. The work delves into the intricate diplomatic shifts of the nineteenth century and the tragic personal losses that marked the life of the imperial family. By focusing on the intersection of the sovereign's personal values and the shifting political landscape of Central Europe, the book offers a vital perspective on the collapse of the Old World order. This volume serves as an essential resource for those interested in the history of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the historical forces that led to the transformation of the European continent.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
