The Hanoverian Dimension in British History, 1714-1837
by Brendan Simms, Torsten Riotte
Hardcover, 350 Pages, Published 2007 by Cambridge University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-521-84222-8, ISBN: 0-521-84222-0

"For more than 120 years (1714-1837) Great Britain was linked to the German Electorate, later Kingdom, of Hanover through Personal Union. This made Britain a continental European state in many respects, and diluted her sense of insular apartness. The geopolitical focus of Britain was now as much on Germany, on the Elbe and the Weser as it was on the Channel or overseas. At the same time, the Hanoverian connection was a major and highly c ..."

"49 For Bolingbroke's political Elizabethanism, see especially Isaac Kramnick, Bolingbroke and his circle: the politics of nostalgia in the age of Walpole(Harvard, 1968). It remained a key theme in Patriot propaganda throughout the rest of the early Hanoverian period, for which see especially Christine Gerrard, Patriot opposition to Walpole: politics, poetry, and national myth, 1725–1742 (1994). For Walpole's press strategy, see esp ..."

"The US invasion of Iraq in 2003 was done mainly, if one is to believe US policy at the time, to liberate the people of Iraq from an oppressive dictator. However, the many protests in London, New York, and other cities imply that the policy of "making the world safe for democracy" was not shared by millions of people in many Western countries. Thinking about this controversy inspired the present volume, which takes a closer look at how s ..."

Die Zeit seit 1850 erwies sich als eine Epoche der intensiven internationalen ..."

But did German relatives really influence decisions made by any British monarchs or are they just an "imagined community," invented by journalists and historians? The Royal Archives at Windsor gave the authors - among others John Rohl, doyen of 19th century m ..."
