Download or read book Napol on et la campagne de Russie written by Jacques-Olivier Boudon and published by Dunod. This book was released on 2021-04-21 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: « Bérézina ! » Ce mot aujourd’hui passé dans le langage courant illustre à lui seul combien l’expérience de la campagne de Russie est ancrée dans la mémoire nationale. Cette mémoire est, du reste, partagée par les Russes qui font de 1812 un élément fondateur de leur histoire. L’affrontement des deux empires, alliés depuis 1807, qui se déroule dans la démesure avant de tourner au désastre, offre une dramaturgie qui se prête au récit : phase de préparation, début de la campagne jusqu’à son apothéose lors de l’entrée dans Moscou, bientôt en flammes, puis chute, avec cette lente retraite dramatique effectuée pour l’essentiel à pied, dans le froid glacial de l’hiver russe. Au-delà de la narration des principaux épisodes de cette expédition, une réflexion s’impose sur le traumatisme qu’a représenté cette tragique campagne. À travers des sources nombreuses, une littérature riche, Jacques-Olivier Boudon s’attache à croiser les approches pour nous aider à comprendre le rôle majeur de cet épisode dans la construction des mémoires européennes. Jacques-Olivier Boudon, grand spécialiste et auteur de nombreux ouvrages sur l’époque napoléonienne, professeur d’histoire contemporaine à l’université Paris IV-Sorbonne, est président de l’Institut Napoléon. “Un ouvrage documenté qui porte un nouveau regard sur la plus grande défaite française, et ce qu’il en reste.” HISTORIA

Download or read book The French Imperial Nation State written by Gary Wilder and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2005-12 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: France experienced a period of crisis following World War I when the relationship between the nation and its colonies became a subject of public debate. The French Imperial Nation-State focuses on two intersecting movements that redefined imperial politics—colonial humanism led by administrative reformers in West Africa and the Paris-based Negritude project, comprising African and Caribbean elites. Gary Wilder develops a sophisticated account of the contradictory character of colonial government and examines the cultural nationalism of Negritude as a multifaceted movement rooted in an alternative black public sphere. He argues that interwar France must be understood as an imperial nation-state—an integrated sociopolitical system that linked a parliamentary republic to an administrative empire. An interdisciplinary study of colonial modernity combining French history, colonial studies, and social theory, The French Imperial Nation-State will compel readers to revise conventional assumptions about the distinctions between republicanism and racism, metropolitan and colonial societies, and national and transnational processes.

Download or read book A Velvet Empire written by David Todd and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2023-09-26 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How France's elites used soft power to pursue their imperial ambitions in the nineteenth century After Napoleon's downfall in 1815, France embraced a mostly informal style of empire, one that emphasized economic and cultural influence rather than military conquest. A Velvet Empire is a global history of French imperialism in the nineteenth century, providing new insights into the mechanisms of imperial collaboration that extended France's power from the Middle East to Latin America and ushered in the modern age of globalization. David Todd shows how French elites pursued a cunning strategy of imperial expansion in which conspicuous commodities such as champagne and silk textiles, together with loans to client states, contributed to a global campaign of seduction. French imperialism was no less brutal than that of the British. But while Britain widened its imperial reach through settler colonialism and the acquisition of far-flung territories, France built a "velvet" empire backed by frequent military interventions and a broadening extraterritorial jurisdiction. Todd demonstrates how France drew vast benefits from these asymmetric, imperial-like relations until a succession of setbacks around the world brought about their unravelling in the 1870s. A Velvet Empire sheds light on France's neglected contribution to the conservative reinvention of modernity and offers a new interpretation of the resurgence of French colonialism on a global scale after 1880. This panoramic book also highlights the crucial role of collaboration among European empires during this period—including archrivals Britain and France—and cooperation with indigenous elites in facilitating imperial expansion and the globalization of capitalism.

Download or read book The French Revolution in Global Perspective written by Suzanne Desan and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2013-03-19 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Situating the French Revolution in the context of early modern globalization for the first time, this book offers a new approach to understanding its international origins and worldwide effects. A distinguished group of contributors shows that the political culture of the Revolution emerged out of a long history of global commerce, imperial competition, and the movement of people and ideas in places as far flung as India, Egypt, Guiana, and the Caribbean. This international approach helps to explain how the Revolution fused immense idealism with territorial ambition and combined the drive for human rights with various forms of exclusion. The essays examine topics including the role of smuggling and free trade in the origins of the French Revolution, the entwined nature of feminism and abolitionism, and the influence of the French revolutionary wars on the shape of American empire. The French Revolution in Global Perspective illuminates the dense connections among the cultural, social, and economic aspects of the French Revolution, revealing how new political forms-at once democratic and imperial, anticolonial and centralizing-were generated in and through continual transnational exchanges and dialogues.
