罗杰斯·普莱斯是东英吉利大学(University of East Anglia)的一名历史课讲师，毕业于斯旺西--威尔士大学的现代历史和政治专业。他发表了很多作品，包括1972年的《法兰西第二共和国：社会历史(The French Second Republic: A Social History)》，1981年的《现代法国经济史，1730~1914 (An Economic History of Modern France, 1730-1914)》，1983年的《法国农村的现代化(The Modernisation of Rural France)》, 以及1987年的《19世纪法国社会史(A Social History of Nineteenth Century France)》。

这是一段不应被忽视的历史。 尽管1848年欧洲革命历时短暂，以失败而告终，但在这意义非凡的一年，变革之力如星星之火，蔓延到整个欧洲大陆。直至今日，整个欧洲乃至所有现代国家的公共生活、政治思想中，仍可见其烙印。本书作者克里斯托弗·克拉克将其评价为：“有史以来唯一一场真正的欧洲革命。” 本书以多维度视角，通过融合微观叙事与宏观分析，重构1848年欧洲革命的全景图，将这场席卷欧洲大陆的动荡置于社会结构、意识形态与全球变革的复杂网络中。 本书首先从底层社会问题切入，剖析革命前夕的深层社会危机：贫困、饥荒引发的阶级矛盾，旧秩序崩塌下的政治失能。第二章转向意识形态的论争，解析各思想派别在“秩序”与“自由”的拉锯中，重塑欧洲政治话语，为后续行动提供精神纲领。第三、四章还原革命爆发的过程，再现了民众如何以暴力与理想冲破旧制的枷锁。然而，胜利的狂欢转瞬即逝：第五章至第...(展开全部)
