History at its most interesting is complex, a fascinating whirl of events, personalities, and forces, and few periods of history offer us such captivating complexity as Europe’s 19th “century”-the often-broadly defined period from the French Revolution to World War I that formed the foundation of the modern world. Professor Weiner, a five-time recipient of Lafayette’s Student Government Superior Teaching Award during his 35 years of teaching history at Lafayette College, leads you on a spirited journey across an ever-changing European landscape, examining the forces and personalities that reshaped the continent’s physical borders, diplomatic relationships, and balance of power.
