Summary

Atlantic Revolutions Compared explores the American and French Revolutions as distinct yet interconnected events, delving into the nuances of revolutionary change and its impact on modern political systems. It uniquely contrasts these revolutions, examining their leadership, constitutional frameworks, and socio-political outcomes.

 
The book highlights how Enlightenment ideals manifested differently across the Atlantic, leading to contrasting results. For example, the American Constitution emphasized individual rights and federalism, while France struggled through multiple constitutions and eventually experienced authoritarianism after the Reign of Terror.

 
The book analyzes revolutionary leadership, such as George Washington and Maximillian Robespierre, to reveal how their strategies influenced each revolution's trajectory. It further examines the socio-economic conditions and pre-existing political institutions that shaped their paths.

 
Structured to provide a clear analysis, the book moves from the intellectual climate that fostered both revolutions to in-depth examinations of leadership, constitutional processes, and socio-political consequences in dedicated chapters.

 
This comparative approach challenges traditional isolated narratives, offering a more nuanced understanding of democracy, political transitions, and revolutionary change.

    Christians need to pause once in a while to get their bearings. For perspective on our own times and how we got here, it helps to listen to wise guides from other eras. In An Infinite Fountain of Light, the renowned American historian George Marsden illuminates the landscape with wisdom from one such mentor: Jonathan Edwards.
    Drawing on his deep expertise on Edwards and American culture, Marsden explains where Edwards stood within his historical context and sets forth key points of his complex thought. By also considering Benjamin Franklin and George Whitefield, two of Edwards's most influential contemporaries, Marsden unpacks the competing cultural and religious impulses that have shaped our times. In contrast, Edwards offered us an exhilarating view of the centrality of God's beauty and love. Christians' love for God, he taught, can be the guiding love of our lives, opening us to transformative joy and orienting all our lesser loves.
    "There is an infinite fullness of all possible good in God, a fullness of every perfection, of all excellency and beauty, and of infinite happiness," wrote Edwards. "This infinite fountain of light should, diffusing its excellent fullness, pour forth light all around."
    With Marsden's guidance, readers will discover how Edwards's insights can renew our own vision of the divine, of creation, and of ourselves.

    The concept of international trade was born in the ancient Mediterranean, which provided the perfect set of circumstances needed to produce an intricate trading system whose influence can still be seen in present-day economic practices. The ancient Mediterranean was home to a diverse range of cultures and landscapes, encompassing deserts, forests, islands and fertile plains. Different natural resources were available in different geographical areas, and with the advent of sailing ships around 3000 BCE, people were suddenly able to travel much further afield than ever before. This created an opportunity to trade local resources in international markets in exchange for exotic goods not available at home. At the same time, this shift in Mediterranean trade from a local to international scale was a catalyst for immense social, political and economic changes that helped to shape the course of Western Civilization as a whole. Ancient trade in the Mediterranean brought cultures into increasingly close contact with one another, and just as in the globalized world today, these cross-cultural influences came to shape the development of belief systems, languages, economics, politics, and art throughout wide expanses of land.  
    Over the centuries, the profits generated from trade helped establish wealthy nations and fuel economic development across the sea. By taxing imports and exports, governments could afford large infrastructure projects, like the construction of roads and harbors, which in turn helped to further increase trade and wealth. As a result, wars were fought for control of important trade routes and to maintain access to crucial commodities such as grain and precious metals. Economics became a primary consideration when establishing government policies and dealing with international relations. Some cities, most notably Rome and Athens, even built empires on the back of their mercantile success.
