Publisher's Synopsis
The Great Continental Revolution: Marking The Expiration Of The Times Of The Gentiles, A. D. 1847-1848 is a historical book written by James Hatley Frere and published in 1848. The book is focused on the events that took place in Europe during the years 1847 and 1848, which are commonly referred to as the ""Year of Revolutions"". Frere argues that these events marked the end of the ""Times of the Gentiles"", a biblical concept that refers to the period of Gentile domination over the world, and the beginning of a new era in which the Jews would regain their power and influence. The book provides a detailed account of the various uprisings and revolutions that occurred across Europe during this time, including the French Revolution of 1848, the Hungarian Revolution, and the Italian Risorgimento. Frere also discusses the role of various political and social movements in these events, such as liberalism, nationalism, and socialism. Frere's writing is heavily influenced by his religious beliefs, and he frequently references biblical prophecies and interpretations throughout the book. He argues that the events of 1847-1848 were a fulfillment of these prophecies, and that they heralded the coming of a new age in which the Jews would once again play a central role in world affairs. Overall, The Great Continental Revolution provides a unique perspective on the events of 1847-1848, and offers insights into the religious and political beliefs of the time. It is an important historical document that sheds light on a pivotal moment in European history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
