Encyclopedia > The long 19th century

The Long 19th Century refers to the period between 1789-1914, that is between the French Revolution which established a non-monarchial republic in Europe, to the beginnings of the World War I , the conclusion of which late in 1918 and via the Paris Peace Conference of 1919 eliminated many of the fashions and territorial agreements of the 19th Century proper (1801-1900).

Walt Disney Concert Hall - Performance Details (158 words)
Historians use a concept called "the long 19th century" to characterize the period between 1789 (the French Revolution) and 1914 (the outbreak of World War I) in European history.
One reason historians employ the concept of a "long" 19th century is that it can encompass one of the key developments of the period, the rise of nationalism.
That the 19th century also witnessed the development of "national" schools of poetry and composition was no accident when seen from this perspective.
