520 "To be modern may mean many different things, but for
nineteenth-century Europeans 'modernity' suggested a new
form of life in which bourgeois activities, people,
attitudes and values all played key roles. Jerrold
Seigel's panoramic new history offers a magisterial and
highly original account of the ties between modernity and
bourgeois life, arguing that they can be best understood
not in terms of the rise and fall of social classes, but
as features of a common participation in expanding and
thickening 'networks of means' that linked together
distant energies and resources across economic, political
and cultural life. Exploring the different configurations
of these networks in England, France and Germany, he shows
how their patterns gave rise to distinctive forms of
modernity in each country and shaped the rhythm and nature
of change across spheres as diverse as politics, money and
finance, gender relations, morality, and literary,
artistic and musical life"--|cProvided by publisher
