I appreciate your post, it resonated!

Could you please point me in the right direction regarding the literature from which I could gain some knowledge relating to reformist movements from 1848.?

As a lifelong musician (on the side), it's always nice to know when a thing resonates. Thanks. As for the requested syllabus, I wouldn't have arrived *here* without developing the ability (very) early on for self-direction and self-study sans curation from on high. In my youth, that meant libraries and phone calls and lots of unanswered questions.

You know more than enough to get started : 1848, a string of Republican uprisings against king & crown around the world in the wake of the Congress of Vienna 1815, a new round of statist backlash... go.

classical guitarst (as well on the side:)) here, but ever since wife and I were blessed with a baby late last year the time for deeper dives in history became scarce and that's also true for my playing.
