Political melancholy in the 19th century - on-site symposium June 19-20, 2025 - University of Lausanne

Announcement Calenda 1264169

This symposium examines the forms taken by political melancholy in the long 19th century (1789-1914). In an era fragmented by regime changes - and particularly troubled by the socio-cultural implications that flowed from them - melancholy became, paradoxically, a constant sentiment common to even the most distant political ideologies.
