Representations and Uses of the American Revolution in Past and Present
Undoubtedly, the American Revolution is the founding moment of the United States of America. However, it also had major repercussions outside the U.S., as an inspiration for independence and social movements, for state- and nation-building. The contributions in this anthology draw from research in history, history of law, political science, art history, literary and cultural studies to assess the representations and uses of the American Revolution across the last 250 years.
