(return to lesson links)

Site Annotation

“Popular Politics and the Revolutions of 1848”

 

This site has wonderful images related to the 1848 revolutions.  Look at the icons on the left-hand side of the page – use these images for power points, for lessons, etc.!  It’s also got a map of Paris in the June Days, discussion topic examples, and transcriptions of eye-witness accounts of the revolutions.  Maps, readings, images – pretty much everything you need can be found at this site…

 

“Encyclopedia of Revolutions of 1848”

 

This site has a great table of contents covering major topics related to the 1848 revolutions.  There are a number of articles written about major figures, places, and events involved in and related to the revolutions.  There are no visuals here, though – text only.

 

“Timelines.info”

 

A really interesting interactive timeline on the 1848 revolutions, and other topics as well.  There are links for sub-timelines showing the events of the German, Austrian, Italian, and French revolutions.

 

“Timeline--Revolutions of 1848”

 

This site has a no-frills timeline, beginning in 1846, and extending through August 1849, with all of the major events of the revolutions.  A handy reference.  Could be nice as a brief review of the revolutions.

 

“Documents of the Revolution of 1848 in France”

 

Among the documents transcribed at this site are the February 1848 by the provisional government in Paris, the proclamation of the Second Republic, and Louis Napoleon’s campaign manifesto.  A nice source of primary documents for the revolutions.

 

“1848: Revolution and Reaction”

 

Here you’ll find some lecture notes for the German 1848 revolutions.  A good length, and reliable information.

 

“Revolutions of 1848”

This could be a good starting point for anyone needing basic background information on the revolutions.  It is simply the Wikipedia entry for the revolutions, with interesting links to subtopics, if any are needed.
