Description

Challenge the enduring myth of Prussian obedience with this scholarly examination of urban political culture under Frederick the Great and his successors. Oxford University Press presents a revisionist history that contests the traditional narrative of an oppressed Prussian bourgeoisie powerless against state authority. This used book in good condition explores how Prussia's city dwellers resisted, negotiated, and shaped their political landscape during the eighteenth century, offering fresh perspectives on German historical development and the emergence of civil society. Essential reading for historians and students of modern Germany seeking to understand how urban populations engaged with state power and challenged assumptions about Prussian authoritarianism.

Key Features

Published by Oxford University Press, providing scholarly authority on German history and state-society relations.

Used book in good condition, offering an affordable entry point to this revisionist historical study.

Addresses debates about German modernisation, bourgeois emancipation, and the roots of political culture in Central Europe.
