A landmark work in modern European historiography, Europe in the Age of Imperialism 1880–1914 chronicles the dramatic decades in which the great powers of Europe extended their political, economic, and military dominance across the globe. Heinz Gollwitzer presents a rigorous and richly illustrated analysis of the ideological underpinnings, nationalist rivalries, and colonial ambitions that defined the era, drawing on a wealth of primary sources and contemporary imagery. Part of the prestigious Library of European Civilization series under General Editor Geoffrey Barraclough, the work situates imperialism not merely as a foreign policy but as a cultural and social phenomenon deeply embedded in European consciousness. With 108 illustrations — 13 in colour — the book brings the period vividly to life, illustrating the propaganda, pageantry, and power politics that ultimately set the stage for the catastrophe of the First World War.
