Abstract:

ABSTRACTNapoleon's most famous innovation in his legendary military career was the use of the daunting Grande Armée with an emphasis on speed, maneuverability, and maintaining the offensive. Yet Napoleon understood that while skirmishes were won or lost on the battlefield, the real war lay in public perception. To that end, Napoleon used art and cultural treasures as part of his arsenal in order to create the perception of victory, regardless of the outcome of any particular campaign. Examining contemporary French artistic representations of Napoleon granting freedom of worship to religious groups, this article analyzes artwork as a tool for fashioning and communicating legal narrative. Popular visual arts are mined for meaning, painting a portrait of the legal and cultural setting of these creative works. The partisan artwork demonstrates how Napoleon's artists depicted freedom of worship as the freedom—granted to all faiths—to worship Napoleon. It is noted that Jews feature disproportionately in the Empire period's depictions of freedom of worship. This is surprising, as the Jewish community was numerically insignificant and hardly influential in Napoleon's realm. This article argues that in addition to broadcasting religious tolerance, Napoleonic artwork used Jews and symbols like Moses and tablets of law to fashion a narrative of law that foregrounded the legal legitimacy of Napoleon's rule: Napoleon's regime is legally just; the enlightened ruler affords rights and liberties to all his subjects; divine Napoleon is the new lawgiver.

Abstract: Author of the article analyzes the reasons of the fail of Napoleon’s attempts to set the guerrilla war in France during the campaign of 1814. While the forces of anti-Napoleonic coalition were standing near the border of France, Napoleon did his best to recruit his new army. But the human resources of France were exhausted, and that’s why Napoleon decided to set the guerrillia. But all his proclamations and even his orders were disobeyed - French people were too tired of incessant war, and Napoleon again decided to gain his goals on the battlefield. Besides author shows great efforts of Russian headquarters to avoid the guerrilla war. Alexander I and his allies in theirs proclamations declared that they were fighting only with Napoleon, but not with the French nation. That tactic gave a brilliant result and helped to avoid the patriotic uplift in France in 1814. In this propagandistic war Napoleon was defeated and that cost him his throne. The reasons of Napoleon’s fail, firstly, was the unclear image of the enemy. French emperor didn’t manage to unite French nation against the rival. On the contrary the French Emperor, his enemies managed (in their proclamations and personal conversations) to persuade the French people, that the allies had one enemy - the Emperor Napoleon, not the French nation, and the ultimate goal of war - to set peace on the European continent. That was exactly how the allies did set the disunity between Napoleon and his people. Ultimately, the combination of these factors was the reason that a guerrilla war never broke out in France.

Abstract:

Matthew Heitzman, “‘He Resembled the Great Emperor’: Charlotte Brontë, Villette, and the Rise of Napoleon III” (pp. 199–223) This essay offers a local historical context for Charlotte Brontë’s Villette (1853), reading it in relation to the rise of Napoleon III as Emperor of France. Napoleon III completed his ascendancy just as Brontë was completing her novel. His rise prompted a mixture of anxiety and optimism in the English press, as English political commentators were uncertain if this new Napoleon’s reign would mark a return to the Anglo-French nationalist strife of the first Napoleonic period or if his rule would mark a détente and productive path forward for Anglo-French relations. I argue that this ambiguity is coded into Brontë’s characterization of Monsieur Paul Emanuel, and that we can read Monsieur Paul’s romance with Lucy Snowe as a political allegory—Brontë’s attempt to decipher what Napoleon III’s rapid rise meant for Anglo-French relations. I suggest in this essay that Brontë’s interest in the contemporary Anglo-French political context was a product of her fascination with Napoleon Bonaparte, specifically his rivalry with the Duke of Wellington, and that understanding her interest in the first Napoleonic period can help us to decipher why her depiction of Anglo-French nationalist interaction in Villette is totally at odds with her other novels, where French nationalism is typically a trait that needs to be effaced.

Abstract The emperor and the eagle. Material culture from Napoleon’s reign in Dordrecht, 1810-1813During Napoleon Bonaparte’s reign as king and emperor of the Netherlands (1810-1813) the Napoleonic eagle had a prominent place in Dutch society. Coats of arms were changed and civic symbols were altered to fit the new regime. But what happened to these symbols when Napoleon’s occupation was over? Were they destroyed, as in France, or was there a different way of looking at Napoleonic symbolism? On a national level the Netherlands attempted to forget the period 1810-1813. As this article argues, events were remembered very differently at a local level. As the case study of Dordrecht proves, objects related to the visit of Napoleon to the city in 1811, and to his reign in general, remained in circulation there. Private stories connected to 1811 secured a place for a seemingly negative episode in the history of Dordrecht. Moreover, the visit created feelings of civic and military pride in the same way that independence did in 1813.

Abstract:

This essay explores the significance of Napoleon for contemporary history and public affairs by reflecting on the career of Melvin Richter (1921-2020) and his forthcoming Tocqueville and the Two Napoleons. Richter maintains that Tocqueville’s ever-deepening analysis of the Napoleonic model, a new and sinister form of the administrative state, achieved dystopian dimensions in his thought and serves as an important thread by which we can re-assess Tocqueville’s entire oeuvre and political career. The article argues that Tocqueville’s historical method, which takes center stage in Richter’s reconstruction of the way in which Tocqueville submits Napoleon to the discipline of history, continues to inspire, even as contemporary concerns shift away from the dangers of the administrative state. It also speculates that the mythical Napoleon who transcended time, a figure inevitably neglected in “Tocquevillian” histories but made compelling by a generation of romantic writers, is newly relevant in a world of mysterious affective attachments to populist leaders and the waves of expressive violence in which such attachments are enmeshed.

Abstract:

The risks of Napoleon's maritime strategy ; Evaluating Napoleon’s relations with his navy and his maritiume strategy is like trying to shine light into a black hole. Only the defeats have gone down into history - Aboukir, Trafalgar - the underside, as it were, of the glories of the Napoleonic era. Yet in exile on St. Helena Napoleon, with some justification, declared himself satisfied with his record at sea. This article seeks to explain this apparent paradox. On assuming power, Napoleon inherited a French navy crippled by six years of war and blockade. He got to grips with making improvements quite effectively, but realised that he would need ten years of peace to fashion a fleet capable of challenging Britain’s Royal Navy with any prospect of suc¬ cess. The ending of the Peace of Amiens (1803) left France virtually disarmed at sea, certainly compared with the protection afforded Britain by its insular position and the ‘wooden walls’ of her fleet. To escape this strategic impasse, Napoleon decided to attempt an invasion of Britain. He based his plan on the assembly of a large fleet of shallow-draught barges to project the Grand Army, 150,000 soldiers, across the Channel. But the plan became delayed. And the more time passed, the greater the complications that emerged, and the clearer became the need for an accompanying sea-going fleet. In 1805 Napoleon attempted a large-scale manoeuvre aimed at concentrating the squadrons of the French fleet in the rear of the British - in the West Indies - before bringing them unexpectedly and suddenly back into Channel waters to cover the passage of the Grand Army to England. The plan failed, but it resulted in the Battle of Trafalgar, which ought never to have taken place. Napoleon, who at first sought to deny the scale of that defeat, did not give up on the French navy. On the contrary, he had it rebuilt once again and raised to the level of the fleet in 1789. He hoped that Britain would lower its guard, to enable him at some point to deliver her a mortal blow. Thus, contrary to what is often argued, Napoleon did understand the mysteries of naval strategy. He realised that a full-scale naval recovery could not be achieved in wartime, whilst Britain retained its mastery of the waves. Yet, and to his credit, he persevered.

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.

Do we need yet another book on Napoleon? Michael Broers answers, not exactly. According to Broers, what we need, and indeed what he has given us, is a sophisticated historical analysis of the impact of Napoleonic rule on conquered Europe from the point of view of the ruled. So, if you are looking for a book primarily on Napoleon the man and ruler, or one on France under Napoleon, you will need to look elsewhere.

Abstract:

The staff officers of the armies of Napoleon ; During the course of the Napoleonic wars the French army benefited from superbly well organised military staffs at all levels, to support the command. At the top of the organisational pyramid stood the Imperial General Staff. This consisted of three bodies : the ‘Imperial Household’, the ‘Emperor’s General Staff’, and the ‘War Administration’. The military staffs of subordinate formations (army corps and divisions ) were divided into three in exactly the same manner. Whatever level one examines in the Napoleonic French army, the staffs all shared the common characteristic of providing the commanding general with the means to plan and direct the movement of his formation’s constituent units. It was this that made possible in that era the material and technical ‘way of war’ that Napoleon pursued. Within each of the military staffs there were specialists, adjutant-majors and their assistants, who ran the offices that generally dealt with non-tactical business, whilst the other officers (including the aides-de-camp to the generals and Napoleon’s personal adjutant officers) took care of observation missions and troop inspections, and acted as courriers -roles that did not require specialist training.

Abstract:

From the campaign waged by Revolutionaries like Barère and the Abbé Grégoire against those regional languages they referred to pejoratively as 'patois', to the educational policies of Jules Ferry a century later, successive governments of France engaged in a broadly successful struggle to force the French to speak French. Inverting the logic of cultural nationalists like Herder, who claimed a shared language as the legitimate basis of national polities, French legislators sought to impose French as a common language on a linguistically diverse population that had already been constituted as a state. Recent historical work has shown the particular significance of such projects during the Napoleonic period. Historians have begun considering how far the Napoleonic regime was characterized by cultural imperialism. While the ideological nature of such projects- the 'view from the centre', so to speak- is now well understood by historians, this thesis is concerned with the practice of Napoleonic imperialism in one sphere of action: language. By focusing on the practice of linguistic imperialism under Napoleon this thesis makes an important contribution to understandings of the cultural politics of the period as well as Napoleonic state-building policies more generally.

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.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with French caricatural representations of Louis- Napoleon Bonaparte in the period from his appearance on the political scene during the nascent Second Republic to the summer following the end of the Franco-Prussian War and Paris Commune. The study of these images reveals his centrality to contemporary republican thought. From 1848 to 1871, Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte was constructed in the Parisian caricature press as the embodiment of all that was anti-republican. Under the Second Republic and Empire the caricature press was recognisably and overwhelmingly republican and yet the very conception of republicanism espoused in its pages was inseparable from opposition to the Napoleon Ill. The delineation of republicanism and its differentiation from other political associations throughout this period can be shown to have relied upon caricatural constructions of Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte. Indeed, it is in the efforts made by Parisian caricaturists to publicly ridicule, humiliate and undermine Napoleon III (even during the actively censorious Empire), that the attempt to plot and construct the idea of republicanism in mid-nineteenth- century France can be clearly witnessed and analysed. These caricatural representations do not simply demonstrate the differences between republican ideology and Louis-Napoleon's Bonapartism, although this was one of their key aims. They reveal the effect his person, his policies and his rule had on the development of what would come to be regarded as fundamental republican principles. His political positioning as heir to Napoleonic gloire, advocate of economic progress, preserver of order and champion of liberty forced responses from the self-styled republican caricaturists. Most fundamentally of all, his commitment to and successful management of the principal of universal male suffrage during Second Empire had a lasting influence upon republican conceptions of democracy, progress and modernity. Even after the debacle of Sedan, the thousands of images mocking the former Emperor and his imperial menagerie betray his impact upon French republican conceptions of politics, history and the nation itself.

Nur knapp sind Radeberg und Lotzdorf direkten militärischen Kämpfen entgangen, trotzdem waren die Schäden durch Belagerungen, Requirierungen, Plünderungen u. ä. unvorstellbar....

Abstract:

Despite the inherently multivalent nature of images of Napoleon Bonaparte created during the middle of the nineteenth century, scholars often employ only one lens to interpret them: the political context of the age in which they were created. In doing so, they effectively separate these images from the wider art historical narrative. A second—and equally fraught—effect of this tendency is the perpetuation of dominant assumptions that the popularity of his image was due to his status as a “Great Man.” This dissertation examines a subset of mid-century Napoleonic imagery that demonstrates the flawed nature of neglecting other approaches to interpreting these works: depictions of the Emperor’s resurrection. These images frequently portray the Emperor as an inherently democratic, republican, or Populist force that derives its power not from Napoleon’s identity, but from the creativity, commemorative work, or critical thinking of the audience and the French people. This dissertation closely examines these images in their artistic and cultural contexts, applying cultural art historical methodology and close iconographical analysis to works that are either absent from or marginalized in the art historical narrative. In doing so, it reveals Napoleonic resurrection imagery’s potential for commenting on changing social mores that privileged the cultural agency of the French people at mid-century. The underlying argument of this study is that Napoleon was a popular artistic subject not because of his status as a “Great Man,” but because of his endlessly mutable identity. This mutability facilitated the creation of new forms of art and knowledge while allowing the French people to reflect upon their place in the changing cultural and artistic milieu. By demonstrating that this admittedly narrow subset of Napoleonic representation is open to cultural analysis, this dissertation opens up new avenues of inquiry for scholars of the Napoleonic Revival. The first chapter of this study is a largely theoretical examination of Napoleonic “ghosts” and their connection to the strained relationship between fine art and popular culture as well as the masses and “Great Men.” Chapter two analyzes several images in which academically trained artists use Christ-like Napoleonic imagery to engage with the rising cultural and creative agency of the lower classes. The third chapter examines the political implications of the Napoleonic Revival. However, unlike earlier studies, it does so through the lens of the ongoing conflict between cultural narratives passed down from a centralized authority and popular culture that challenges these narratives. In particular, it contrasts the July Monarchy regime’s marginalization of the “real” Napoleon with public enthusiasm for the image of his corpse. Finally, the dissertation considers Paul Delaroche’s Napoleonic series in the context of the shifting locus of artistic production during the period.

Abstract:

‘The emperor, 1804–1812’ describes the imperial expansion after Napoleon became Emperor. It explains how the new political and military forces unleashed by the French Revolution, which had made possible Napoleon’s astonishing conquests and reforms, did not allow him to consolidate and preserve them. Instead, a different geopolitical dynamic took shape. On the level of grand strategy, Napoleon felt increasingly forced into incessant war and annexation, above all because of his inability to overcome his greatest and most supremely frustrating enemy, Great Britain. The brutal Napoleonic wars are described, including the battles at Trafalgar and Austerlitz, defeat of Prussia, and the shortcomings of the French navy. Napoleon was finding it difficult to control events.

Abstract:

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.

Abstract:

The paper discusses the possibility of a potential reception between F.-R. Chateaubriand and S. S. Uvarov in pamphlets on Napoleon in 1814. The author (in the process of comparative comparison of political and cultural glossaries and rhetorical strategies of both figures) draws on the methodological tools of the Cambridge School of the “History of Concepts” (Q. Skinner and J.G.A. Pocock). Based on this analysis, a conclusion is drawn about the similarities and differences between rhetorical strategies, political, and cultural glossaries in the designated pamphlets about Napoleon.

Abstract:

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.
