Abstract:
Perhaps the greatest ambition of a professional historian is to become so associated with a subject that he or she is instantly recognized as the "leading" authority. Many distinguished scholars are readily known by their work in a certain field-G.R. Elton on the Reformation and C.V. Wedgewood on the English Civil War, to name but two. Similarly, when one thinks of Napoleon, one immediately associates the name David Chandler with him. Chandler is easily identified by his mammoth and weighty tome, The Campaigns of Napoleon, certainly the most exhaustive and lengthy study of the erstwhile French Emperor.

The global sweep of that conflict, to quote Rory Muir's Britain and the defeat of Napoleon, forces the historian to address an ‘interlocking mosaic of problems’ (p. xii), spanning the Baltic to the Cape of Good Hope, and the Indian subcontinent to the Caribbean.

Abstract:
This reflection on the influence of Napoleon and the consequences of the wars on the major British poets of the Romantic era is meant to illustrate how the reactions of both nobility and commoners are recorded in literature and media. The dual perception of Napoleon as both hero and tyrant and the atrocious suffering of those at home and bloody battles are manifest in the works of the major poets, William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Percy Bysshe Shelly, and especially George Gordon, Lord Byron. Even today, Napoleon transcends precise definition and he has inspired some of the greatest poets in British literature

Abstract:
ABSTRACTInvestigating the letters, diaries, and memoirs of British officers and enlisted men from the Napoleonic Wars, this article explores the hitherto neglected subject of British soldiers’ perceptions of Napoleon. Soldiers often formed mixed and ambivalent views on Napoleon. At one level, this corresponds with a range of attitudes within Britain, highlighting the important connections between soldiers and domestic culture. Yet these views also reveal what soldiers as a distinct cohort prioritized about Napoleon, and how these perceptions evolved over time. They also reveal tensions and divisions within the army itself, and shed light on British soldiers and patriotism. And finally, they add to our understanding of soldiers’ writing practices, especially their cultural context and the differences between wartime writing and memoirs. A diverse and shifting set of cultural frameworks and lived experiences shaped soldiers’ writings on Napoleon – from the Black Legend and Napoleonic Legend, to the Enlightenment and Romanticism; and from Spain and its battlefields to Restoration Paris and post-Waterloo Britain. Tracing the evolution of British soldiers’ perceptions of Napoleon from the outbreak of the Peninsular War in 1808 to the mid-nineteenth century reveals a growing admiration of Napoleon and the increasing hold of the Napoleonic Legend.

Abstract:
Russian poets during the reign of Alexander I widely employed images and stories from Old Testament Scriptures to describe the ongoing wars with Napoleon, especially regarding the invasion of 1812. Their ideas are collected in a body of patriotic literature, which has received little attention for its literary merits but provides insight into the contemporary climate of opinion and the ways in which Russians responded to the French Revolution and Napoleon. Across Europe, other writers and intellectuals exhibited millenarian tendencies, seeking a renewed world with the old order swept away. While Russian writers exhibited similar concerns with finding a way to regenerate the decadent European world, they did so by appealing to their own experience as expiation for Europe’s sins. This study argues that the Napoleonic Wars catalyzed the development of Romantic Nationalism and the development of a messianic national myth, which arose primarily in Moscow after its destruction in 1812.

Abstract:
History
Ph.D.
This dissertation explores the influence of late eighteenth-century British imperial and global paradigms of thought on the formation of British policy and strategy during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. It argues that British imperial interests exerted a consistent influence on British strategic decision making through the personal advocacy of political leaders, institutional memory within the British government, and in the form of a traditional strain of a widely-embraced British imperial-maritime ideology that became more vehement as the conflict progressed. The work can be broken into two basic sections. The first section focuses on the formation of strategy within the British government of William Pitt the Younger during the French Revolutionary Wars from the declaration of war in February 1793 until early 1801. During this phase of the Anglo-French conflict, British ministers struggled to come to terms with the nature of the threat posed by revolutionary ideology in France, and lacked strategic consistency due to acute cabinet-level debates over continental versus imperial strategies. The latter half of the work assesses Britain’s response to the challenges presented by Napoleonic France. Beginning with the debates surrounding Anglo-French peace negotiations in late 1801, the British increasingly came to define Napoleonic France as a regime harboring imperial aspirations that represented an explicit threat to British imperial interests. By defining the Napoleonic regime as an aspirational imperial power, British opponents of the Peace of Amiens provided the intellectual framework for the hegemonic struggle between land and sea powers that would define the Anglo-French struggle until its conclusion in June 1815. While Britain ultimately proved successful in defeating France in Europe, the expanse of the conflict also exposed the strengths and weaknesses of British force projection outside of Europe at the beginning of the nineteenth century.

Abstract:
Existing studies of popular culture and popular politics in the long eighteenth century over-favour either the ‘culture’ or the ‘politics’. This thesis contributes to debates on the making of both national and class identity in Britain via intensive analysis of popular song culture, in the context of the Napoleonic Wars. Portrayals of Napoleon himself are used to shape the thesis’ source material and the forms of discussion. It argues for the necessity of sympathetic, informed contextualisation of political issues within contemporary cultural processes: that an understanding of the composition/production and performance/ consumption of song is a prerequisite of determining songs’ relevance and reception. In so doing, it uncovers a nuanced array of attitudes towards both Napoleon and British patriotism, of unsuspected breadth, assertiveness, and idiosyncrasy. The thesis is divided into two stages of argument. Part I consists of a close and contextualised reading of songs as literary and musical objects. Chapter One, after close historiographical engagement that moves to a focus on Colley’s Britons and revisionist arguments about British society, discusses those songs originating after Waterloo. Chapter Two considers songs from 1797-1805. Chapter Three considers songs from 1806-15. Part II builds upon the themes and conclusions of Part I by situating these songs within a lived context. Chapter Four looks at the role of songwriters and printers; Chapter Five at singers; Chapter Six at audiences and reception. Chapter Seven elaborates the overall argument in a synoptic case study of Newcastle. The conclusion is followed by an appendix, listing the songs most pertinent to the thesis, giving additional bibliographical information. A hard copy (USB) of recordings of a representative selection of these songs is also included. These appendices reinforce the thesis’ methodology: to consider songs, not as passive evidence of expression, but as active, dynamic objects.

Abstract:
The Austrian army played a crucial role in Napoleon's decisive defeat during the War of the Sixth Coalition. Often considered a staid, hidebound institution, the army showed considerable adaptation in a time that witnessed a revolution in the art of war. In particular, changes made after defeat in the War of the Fifth Coalition demonstrate the modernity of the army. It embraced the key features of the new revolutionary way of war, including mass mobilization, a strategy of annihilation, and tactics based on deep echelonment, mobility, and the flexible use of varied formations. While the Austrians did not achieve the compromise peace they desired in 1814, this represented a political failing rather than a military one. Nevertheless, the Austrian army was critical in securing the century of general European peace that lasted until the dawn of the Great War.

Abstract:
A la rupture de la paix d’Amiens, le Premier Consul retient en otage les Britanniques présents sur le sol de la France en réponse au gouvernement britannique qui détient aussi des Français. Mais la raison est avant tout économique. Les Anglais sont séparés des autres prisonniers de guerre et ne servent que dans les domaines où ils excellent comme les filatures. Leur dénombrement s’avère difficile, à cause de documents incomplets ou de mutations trop fréquentes. Les dépôts, au nombre de quatre en 1803, passent à douze en 1810, puis à quinze à de la fin des hostilités.La vie en société s’organise et les prisonniers ont tendance à recréer la vie « à l’anglaise » particulièrement festive dans divers dépôts. Mais les jeux d’argent sèment la discorde et entraînent les duels et les dettes. Les évasions nombreuses provoquent la colère du Ministère de la guerre. Les échanges sont rares et blessés et invalides font l’objet de tractations pour les échanges.La santé reste un problème majeur, la qualité de la nourriture est douteuse. La mortalité est importante.Hormis les mariages et les naissances, ils ont laissé peu de choses puisqu’ils n’ont rien bâti mais demeure le souvenir
After the breaking off of the Peace of Amiens, the Premier Consul keeps the British who were present on the French ground as hostages as a reply to the British Government who keeps also French prisoners. But the true reason is more economical. The British prisoners are treated differently from prisoners of war and are only used in what is useful, such as spinning factories.Having a precise census of the British population in the depots was difficult: the documents are incomplete and the transfers from depot to depot too often. There were four depots at the beginning but it went to twelve in 1810 and 15 by the end of the war.Social life is organized and the prisoners tend to recreate the “British way of life” with much rejoicing in the various depots. But money games bring quarrels and debts. Escapes arises hunger in the French War Ministry. Exchanges are seldom and wounded and disabled men are part of these exchanges. Health remains a major problem and food is of poor quality. Death rate is severe. Except weddings and births, they have not left anything as they did not build but remembrance is still there

Smith, Eric C. "A Pre-professional Institution: Napoleon’s Marshalate and the Defeat of 1813." Thesis, University of North Texas, 2014. https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc699890/.

Full text
Abstract:
Napoleon’s defeat in 1813 generates a number of explanations from historians regarding why he lost this epic campaign which ultimately resulted in France losing control over the German states. Scholars discussing the French marshalate of the Napoleonic era frequently assert that these generals could not win battles without the emperor present. Accustomed to assuming a subordinate role under Bonaparte’s direct supervision, these commanders faltered when deprived of the strong hand of the master. This thesis contributes to this historiographical argument by positing that the pre-professional nature of Napoleon’s marshalate precluded them from adapting to the evolving nature of warfare during the First French Empire. Emerging from non-military backgrounds and deriving their capabilities solely from practical experience, the marshals failed to succeed at endeavors outside of their capacity. An examination of the military administration of the Old Regime, the effects of the French Revolution on the French generalate, and the circumstances under which Bonaparte labored when creating the imperial marshalate demonstrates that issues systemic to the French high command contributed to French defeat in 1813. This thesis also provides evidence that Napoleon understood this problem and attempted to better prepare his marshals for independent command by instructing them in his way of war during the 1813 campaign.

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo desenvolver uma análise comparada da representação de Napoleão Bonaparte por meio do estudo da obra de Lev Tolstói, Guerra e paz, e dos exemplares da Gazeta do Rio de Janeiro. Para tanto, foi realizado o mapeamento de tais escritos com a finalidade de identificar as referências à figura de Napoleão e o contexto em que estão inseridas. Desta maneira, foi possível identificar as aproximações e os afastamentos entre os dois tipos de representações de Napoleão e a dimensão do mito napoleônico no imaginário de russos e luso-brasileiros.
This work aims to develop a comparative analysis of Napoleon Bonaparte representation through the study of Lev Tolstoys work, War and Peace, and Gazeta do Rio de Janeiros issues. Therefore, the mapping of such writings was done in order to find references to Napoleons figure and the context in which they are inserted. Thus, it was possible to identify the approaches and departures between two types of Napoleons representations and the size of Napoleonic myth in the minds of Russians and Portuguese-Brazilians.

В статье анализируется имперская идея Наполеона Бонапарта, ее основные контуры и осуществление. В центре внимания автора находятся такие аспекты, как соотношение имперской идеи и возможностей ее претворения во внутренней и внешней политике Франции в начале XIX века, проблемы трактовки «естественных границ» и выхода за их пределы, функционирования «сестринских республик» и их эволюции к «братским» монархиям, формирования новой политической элиты, общеевропейской экономической политики (в том числе в рамках континентальной блокады), культурного империализма и новой имперской символики, структуры Великой армии. Не менее важным является вопрос, можно ли считать имперскую стратегию Наполеона частью грандиозного плана по переустройству Европы или же она была плодом сложившейся конъюнктуры, ситуативных действий, насколько возможным было в постреволюционных условиях нарушения баланса сил и подъема национализма реализация объединения Европы при сохранении французской гегемонии? Большинство наполеоновских исследований долгое время оставались сконцентрированными на личности императора, его военных кампаниях, дипломатии и международных отношениях. Историографическая дискуссия, имевшая место в последние десятилетия, поставила и решила ряд ключевых проблем в трактовке имперского проекта Наполеона Бонапарта (например, в оценках характера военнополитической экспансии и системы «сестринских» республик), но осталась актуальной в контексте роли Франции в процессах европейской интеграции и формирования общеевропейской исторической политики. The article analyzes the imperial idea of Napoleon Bonaparte, its main outlines and implementation. The authors focus on such aspects as the correlation of the imperial idea and the possibilities of its implementation in the domestic and foreign policy of France at the beginning of the XIX century, the problems of interpreting “natural borders” and going beyond them, the functioning of “sister republics” and their evolution to “fraternal” monarchies, the formation of a new political elite, pan-European economic policy (in particular within the framework of the continental blockade), cultural imperialism and the new imperial symbols, the structure of the Great Army. No less important is the question whether Napoleon’s imperial strategy can be considered part of a grandiose plan for the reconstruction of Europe, or whether it was the fruit of the prevailing conjuncture, situational actions, and the question of how it was possible in the post-revolutionary conditions of the power imbalance and the rise of nationalism to realize the unification of Europe while preserving French hegemony? Most of the Napoleonic studies for a long time remained focused on the personality of the emperor, his military campaigns, diplomacy and international relations. The historiographical discussion that has taken place in recent decades has raised and solved a number of key problems in the interpretation of Napoleon Bonaparte’s imperial project (for example, in assessing the nature of military-political expansion and the system of “sister republics”), but has remained relevant in the context of France’s role in the processes of European historical policy.

В год 210-летия Отечественной войны 1812 г. было решено осуществить комплексное искусствоведческое исследование Военной галереи Зимнего дворца как памятника русскому героизму. Авторов интересует вопрос, можно ли и сегодня, в эпоху политических потрясений, считать галерею пантеоном Славы или же герои войны с Наполеоном постепенно уходят в забвение, даруя свое место героям текущего столетия. In the year of the 210th anniversary of the Patriotic War of 1812, it was decided to carry out a comprehensive art history study of the Military Gallery of the Winter Palace as a monument to Russian heroism. The authors are interested in the question whether today, in the era of political shocks, the Gallery can be considered the Pantheon of Glory, or whether the heroes of the war with Napoleon are gradually fading into oblivion, giving their place to the heroes of the nowadays.

Abstract:
Since the beginning of the 18th century, the instability of the PrussianIGerman state has affected the shape of Berlin. Constant shifts in the boundaries of the empire as well as in its ideology have forced countless architectural redefinitions of the center of its capital. The decisions to preserve, renovate, or replace Berlin’s monuments have thus always been caught between considerations of their ideological impact and their effect on the body of historic docurnentation. Schinkel’s Neue Wache grew out of this tension. It was originally designed and subsequently renovated at significant points of change in German history: it was designed after the defeat of Napoleon and renovated after WWI, modified during the Nazi period, and substantially changed at three points after WWII: in the early years of the German Democratic Republic, at the height of the Cold War, and after reunification in 1993. Consequently, its architecture has always borne traces of history consciously transformed by the ideologies of the present.

Abstract:
In our most recent topics we have explored the theme of the modern fortifications of the Island of Elba and more specifically of Portoferraio in the French period. Medici Portoferraio is well known and already widely documented, from its sixteenth-century foundation to the last eighteenth-century adjustments of the landward bastions of this formidable "war machine". Less known and yet to be explored further is the history of the fortified architecture of the period between the end of the Medici dynasty and the French occupation. Today, important unpublished iconographic documents allow us to fill this gap and fully understand the choices that Napoleon himself would then make on the defensive system of the main stronghold of the island.

Статья подготовлена на основе анализа документального материала, характеризующего практики адаптации смоленского купечества к чрезвычайным условиям послевоенного восстановления хозяйственной жизни Смоленской губернии, прежде всего во взаимоотношениях с властью, а также с иноверным (еврейским) населением Смоленской губернии после Отечественной войны 1812 года. Взаимоотношения с властными структурами строились на основе материальной помощи купечеству, льготах в оплате налогов, списании долгов и недоимок. После 1814 года власть рассчитывала на восстановление хозяйственного потенциала смоленского купечества, однако это произошло гораздо позже, не ранее конца 1810 года. Поэтому поиск виновных в длительном хозяйственном застое стал одной из форм психологической адаптации к чрезвычайным условиям.

Abstract:
Статья посвящена одному из средиземноморских сюжетов эпохи Наполеоновских войн – конфронтации держав в южной Италии, на территории Неаполитанского королевства. Этот стратегически важный регион между Западом и Востоком крайне слабо защищался его непосредственными хозяевами. Их власть держалась на нейтралитете и интригах, лавировании между Францией и членами антифранцузской коалиции. После разрыва Амьенского мира в 1803 г. Наполеон направил существенные силы к неаполитанским границам. Англия и Россия ответили на это организацией совместной операции по защите Неаполя: в 1805 г. с Корфу в южную Италию были отправлены русские, а с Мальты – английские войска. Впрочем, подобная активность скорее навредила Неаполю, убедив Наполеона в лживости местной Бурбонской династии и укрепив его в намерении завоевать Италию полностью, изгнав неаполитанских монархов с территории королевства и посадив на их трон своего брата Жозефа. Поняв, что сопротивление превосходившей их французской армии бесполезно, союзники приняли решение об эвакуации. Впрочем, если русские вернулись на Корфу по приказу императора Александра I, то англичане все же предприняли попытку защиты части Неаполитанского королевства – Сицилии – и эмигрировавшего туда королевского двора. С разрешения монархов британские солдаты высадились на острове и заняли крепость Мессины. Тем временем французы вошли в Неаполь. Однако для полной победы им требовалось захватить и Сицилию, о чем неустанно напоминал брату Наполеон. Со своей стороны, англичане на Сицилии вынашивали планы по высадке на континент и нанесения удара по французам. Только узкий пролив отделял соперников друг от друга, и в течение двух лет инициатива переходила из рук в руки. При этом каждая сторона имела целью скорее сохранить статус непобежденной, чем нанести противнику решительное поражение. The article is devoted to one of the Mediterranean aspects of the Napoleonic wars period – the confrontation in South Italy, in the Neapolitan Kingdom. This strategically important region between the West and the East was poorly defended by its owners. Neutrality and intrigues, maneuvering between France and the states-members of the antiFrench coalitions were the basis of their power. After the break of the Amiens treaty in 1803 Napoleon turned his troops to the Neapolitan borders. Britain and Russia responded at once by organizing a joint military operation. Russian troops were sent from Corfu, while the British came from Malta. However, such activity was more of harm to Naples. It convinced Napoleon of the Neapolitan Bourbons’ deceitful nature, and strengthened his desire to conquer the whole of Italy, banishing the monarchs from their kingdom and replacing the vacant throne with his brother Joseph. Having understood the hopelessness of confronting the much bigger French army, the allies decided to retreat. Still, while the Russians returned to Corfu according to the order of Emperor Alexander I, the British made an attempt to defend at least a part of the Kingdom – Sicily – together with the royal court that had emigrated there. By the King’s permission the British soldiers landed on the island and occupied the fortress of Messina. Meanwhile, the French entered Naples. However, for final victory they needed to capture Sicily as well, and Napoleon kept reminding his brother about it. At the same time, the British at Sicily came up with plans of landing on the continent and striking a blow to the French. Just a narrow straight separated the enemies from each other, and during the two years that followed the initiative changed hands. It should be noted that neither side actually tried to win a decisive victory, but rather to save the status of having remained unbeaten.

Abstract:
The Industrial Revolution of the 19th century had a profound effect on the way the wars were fought. Historians often refer to the American Civil War (1861-65) as the first genuine modern war. History has shown that the effects of technological advances in industry are processes which follow the revolution in the history of war. Napoleon's military campaigns formed the basis of formal military education and lidership in the Western world. Wars as a social phenomenon were more effective through the use of the first modern railways, roads, and warships, which in most military operations changed the doctrine and tactics of warfare and the deployment of military forces on the battlefield. The first and second generation of modern warfare was dominated by the massive use of military force, and numerous armies. This generation of warfare culminates in the Renaissance with the wars of the french emperor and one of the famoust strategic military leaders in that time, Napoleon Bonaparte. The third generation of warfare was a product of the First World War and was generally developed by the German army and was better known as “Blitzkrieg” or maneuver warfare. The strategic military leader in this generation of warfare was Adolf Hitler. The fourth generation of warfare is an evolved form of rebellion that uses all available networks: political, economic, social, and military, in order to create an imaginary image of the adversary. Also, the fifth generation of warfare is defined as contactless warfare, which states and destroys a specific goal without the physical presence of a human. This generation of warfare begins with long-range artillery and naval firearms and longrange missile systems and has been studied since the US terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Strategic leadership in the fourth and fifth generation of warfare have been most developed by US military strategic leaders especially after the US terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. World-class warriors are strategic leaders which have moved beyond tactical and operational competence in the employment of the future force. They understand and implement a full spectrum of operations at the strategic level to include theater and campaign strategy, joint force, interagency in multinational operations. At the end, the military strategic leaders are using all spectrum of military elements of national political 208 power and technology in the execution of the national security strategy. The aim of this paper is to analyze the historical development of strategic lidership in warfare throughout history, taking into account the comprehensive social changes that have taken place in the world over the last two centuries. Keywords: historical development, strategic lidership, generations of warfare, strategy, tactics

Abstract:
This article deals with the stories of Vsevolod Ivanov “At Borodino”, “Near the old Smolensk road” and the story “On the Borodino Field”, written in 1943 and forming a kind of trilogy in the writer's work dedicated to the Patriotic War of 1812 and the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. The elements of the poetics of texts that unite them into a whole are revealed. For the first time, the historical context of the creation of Ivanov's works in 1943 is analyzed: the actualization of attention to Russian history, and in particular to the war with Napoleon, Soviet propaganda work in the early years of the Great Patriotic War, aimed at covering the events of the people's liberation struggle with foreign invaders in the central press and in fiction. Ivanov's works are also considered from the point of view of the realities of the historical periods of 1812, 1839 and 1941 reflected in them. Possible historical sources of the storylines of the stories “At Borodino” and “Near the old Smolensk Road” are revealed: these are the stories of the heroic Tuchkov family, the creation of a monument on the Borodino field. The methods of psychological analysis used in the trilogy are correlated in the article with the poetics of Ivanov's book “The Secret of Secrets” (1926). The author dwells on the ideas of continuity of Russian and Soviet history, the national-historical origins of the military national feat, emphasized by the writer in the trilogy.

Abstract:
The Tino Island’s lighthouse. Transformation of a defensive building to a reference for navigationThe special and unique position of the Tino Island in the Gulf of La Spezia, with its complex orography, has strengthen his attitude of sighting, protecting and controlling the sea over centuries. Nothing can escape the view enjoyed from the top of the island, which on the clearest days catches a stretch of sea that goes from Livorno to Genoa. This was certainly noticed by the Republic of Genoa’s engineers around 1600, who probably built the current base of the lighthouse that still exists today. This tower was part of the program to strengthen the defense of the Ligurian’s eastern coast. The structure, of which there are no detailed studies, has a remarkable typological similarity with the ruins of the only surviving coeval tower, Torre Scola, not far from Palmaria Island. It’s not certain that the tower on Tino Island had an offensive character, because its extremely high position relative to the water level would be too difficult to shoot an enemy on the sea, but it is still possible to see defensive features that could be used if the structure had been besieged. What’s certain is that his vocation of control over the sea was never lost, even if Napoleon wanted to transfer this facility to the nearby Palmaria Island. We owe its renovation to the Savoy government, in particular to King Carlo Alberto, who first wanted to build a lighthouse in 1839, adding a small tower to the Genoese structure. Then in 1884, the second lighthouse was built, higher than the first, which can still be seen today and that is still used for the light signals. These structures were added over time to house the lighthouse’s staff. Today the island is closed to the public, as it is the property of the Italian Navy, and perhaps, thanks to this, it has kept intact the features of its architecture surrounded by nature, as it certainly was in the century of its construction.

The value of equity market transactions in emerging economies soared from about 2 percent of the world total in 1986 to 12 percent in 1996. This boom was accompanied by an explosion of international capital flows, especially flows into developing country stock markets. Moreover, while equity flows were a negligible part of capital flows to emerging markets a decade ago, equity flows now represent about 20 percent of private capital flows to developing nations.
