Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Undoubtedly, the American Revolution is the founding moment of the United States of America. However, it also had major repercussions outside the U.S., as an inspiration for independence and social movements, for state- and nation-building. The contributions in this anthology draw from research in history, history of law, political science, art history, literary and cultural studies to assess the representations and uses of the American Revolution across the last 250 years.The first of four thematic trajectories explores the historiographical narratives produced within and outside the borders of the U.S. The second deals with political and constitutional narratives on the American Revolution and how they were used during the Italian Risorgimento, the 'Vormärz' or the Revolution of 1848. The third trajectory is about the rejection of the American Revolution, about loyalists and conservatives in Europe and the Atlantic World. The fourth axis focuses on the relationship between visual/stage representations and cultural/historical memory.All contributions show how actors remember and as such construct the American Revolution by means of visual, textual, performative, and musical representations and how they connect their representations of this past event to their present-day collective experiences, claims and actions.Universitätsverlag Winter, Dossenheimer Landstraße 13, 69121 Heidelberg 331 pp. Englisch.
