Full textAbstract:
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.

Full textAbstract:
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 textAbstract:
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.

Full textAbstract:
Es ist eine geschichtsträchtige Zeit. Napoleon Bonaparte, Zar Alexander I. von Russland, König Friedrich Wilhelm III. von Preußen, Graf zu Sayn-Wittgenstein, Ludwig Graf Yorck von Wartenburg und viele andere höchste Politiker und Militärs waren 1813, nach Napoleons Rückzug aus Russland, in Radeberg zu Lage-Sondierungen, Gelände-Besichtigungen und hochrangigen Gesprächen. Nur knapp sind Radeberg und Lotzdorf direkten militärischen Kämpfen entgangen, trotzdem waren die Schäden durch Belagerungen, Requirierungen, Plünderungen u. ä. unvorstellbar.... Dabei spielte der Sandberg, gelegen zwischen Radeberg und Lotzdorf am „Lotzdorfer Zacken“ und die höchste Erhebung im Radeberger Gebiet, eine besondere Rolle, denn Napoleon kam mit seinem Stab von Dresden, um von hier aus das Terrain für die Vorbereitung einer Schlacht zu sondieren.

Adams, Alissa R. "French depictions of Napoleon I's resurrection (1821-1848)." Diss., University of Iowa, 2018. https://ir.uiowa.edu/etd/3236.
Full textAbstract:
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.

Full textAbstract:
Entre 1815 et 1848, la figure napoléonienne s’impose comme l’une des sources d’inspiration majeures de la poésie française : les plus grands auteurs mais aussi les chansonniers populaires et les poètes d’occasion se confrontent à l’évocation de celui qui apparaît alors comme l’archétype du héros. Ce travail se propose d’explorer le corpus de la poésie napoléonienne en prenant pour guide la notion de mythe littéraire : de quelles façons, sous quelles formes et avec quels enjeux le mythe littéraire de Napoléon émerge-t-il de cette poésie ?On se propose ici trois objectifs : rendre compte de la naissance d’un mythe littéraire dans l’histoire ; aller au-delà d’une étude parcellaire pour exposer sa structure d’ensemble ; étudier les sens que prend le mythe littéraire en les comprenant dans le contexte plus large du Romantisme. Un travail de dénombrement de la poésie napoléonienne sert de point de départ à une analyse qui tente de marier les approches chronologique, thématique et esthétique du mythe. Quatre parties illustrent chacune un segment chronologique du corpus, alternant entre présentations d’ensemble et développements consacrés à des œuvres précises : passage de la représentation d’un héros épique à celle d’un héros mythique (1815-1821), premier essor du mythe sous la forme d’une aurore libérale (1821-1830), apothéose du mythe (1830-1840), reflux et in fine changement de statut de ce mythe (1840-1848). La cinquième partie propose une étude en synchronie qui synthétise les matériaux précédemment rassemblés : on y explore les thèmes constitutifs et les structures du mythe ainsi que ses liens avec le RomantismeBetween 1815 and 1848, Napoleon became established as one of the major sources of inspiration in French poetry. Writers of all kinds – from the greatest poets of the age to lyricists of popular songs and part-time versifiers – took on the challenge of evoking a figure that came to be presented as the archetypal hero. This study aims to explore the corpus of Napoleonic poetry within the framework of the notion of literary myth : how, in what forms and with what consequences did the literary myth of Napoleon emerge in this poetry ?The following three objectives are thus proposed: to account for the historical birth of a literary myth ; to go beyond a fragmented analysis in order to identify an overarching structure ; to identify and situate the meanings of the literary myth in the broader context of Romanticism.A cataloguing of Napoleonic poetry serves as a starting point for an analysis that aims to marry chronological, thematic and aesthetic approaches to the myth. Each of the first four parts examines a chronological segment of the corpus, alternating between general presentations and more specific studies focusing on particular works : the transition from the representation of an epic hero to the representation of a mythical hero (1815-1821), the first blossoming of the myth, occurring together with a liberal rereading of Napoleon’s actions (1821-1830), the apogee of the myth (1830-1848), the decline and eventual redefining of the myth (1840-1848). The fifth part proposes a synthesis of the material that has been thus far assembled in order to explore the constitutive themes and the structures of the myth as well as its links to Romanticism

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse porte sur une étude générale de la vie littéraire sous le premier Empire. Il s’agit non seulement de retracer l’histoire littéraire de cette période méconnue, mais aussi d’analyser les rapports qu’avaient les écrivains avec le régime napoléonien. De plus, cette littérature, si faible en production littéraire dans l’opinion publique, augure déjà de la renaissance prochaine des lettres françaises après les épreuves sanglantes de la Révolution. Elle est donc naturellement celle qui ouvre la voie à toute cette pléthore d’auteurs célèbres qui porteront le romantisme à son accomplissement. Notre problématique est donc d’analyser le rôle des auteurs du début du siècle tels que Chateaubriand, Madame de Staël et Senancour dans cette éclosion spectaculaire de l’écriture romantique. Ce travail a aussi pour but de dresser un tableau complet des genres sous le premier Empire : le roman, le théâtre, la poésie sont traités en profondeur en faisant ressortir les nouveautés intervenues dans ces formes littéraires, une attention particulière est accordée aux figures talentueuses qui s’illustrent dans cette littérature. La presse est étudié de manière approfondie, on s’est surtout intéressé aux conditions dans lesquelles les journalistes écrivaient dans les papiers ; c'est-à-dire que l’on a passé en revue la législation restrictive mise en place par le régime pour diriger l’esprit public. En province, les mêmes mesures contraignantes étaient observées sous la vigilance des préfets, une création de Napoléon. La conception napoléonienne du pouvoir, et la légitimité qu’il fonde sur la gloire constituent la charpente de ce chapitre qui analyse profondément les vues et les innovations de l’Empereur dans la gestion des affaires du pays. Ainsi ce travail ambitionne de porter un nouvel éclairage sur la décennie qui a vu Napoléon arriver au pouvoir et forger un imaginaire depuis devenu légendaire. Nous avons donc tenté de corriger cette omission en entreprenant ce travail qui apporte une nouvelle vision et une nouvelle connaissance du premier Empire hors des clichés et des stéréotypes portant sur la faiblesse de sa production littéraireThis thesis concerns a general study of the literary life under the first Empire. It is not only a question of redrawing the literary history of this underestimated period, but also of analyzing the reports connections which had the writers with the napoleonic regime. Furthermore, this literature, so weak in literary production in the public opinion, already expect from the next revival of the French letters after the bloody events of the Revolution. It is the one thus naturally which opens the way to all this plethora of famous authors who will carry the romanticism in its fulfillment. Our problem thus is to analyze the role of the authors of the beginning of the century such as Chateaubriand, Madame de Staël and Senancour in this spectacular hatching of the romantic writing. This work also aims at drawing up a complete board of the genres under the first Empire: the novel, the theater, the poetry are treated in depth by highlighting the novelties intervened in these literary forms, a particular attention is tuned to the talented figures which become famous in this literature. The press is studied in a detailed way, we were especially interested in the conditions in which the journalists wrote in papers; that is we reviewed the restrictive legislation organized by the regime to manage the public spirit. In province, the same binding measures were observed under the attentiveness of the prefects, a creation of Napoleon. The napoleonic conception of the power and its legitimacy which stand on the glory constitutes the skeleton of this chapter which analyzes profoundly the sights and the innovations of the Emperor in the management of the country affairs. So this work aspires to concern a new lighting the decade which saw Napoleon coming to power and forging an imagination since become legendary. We thus tried to correct this omission by undertaking this work which brings a new vision and a new knowledge of the first Empire outside clichés and stereotypes concerning the weakness of its literary production

Full textAbstract:
HistoryPh.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.

O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar alguns pontos da construção simbólica do poder de napoleão bonaparte, em sua relação direta com um projeto de personalização do poder e de legitimação política, captando seu significado em meio ao universo de práticas e representações políticas de fins do século XVIIIe início do XIX.Privilegiamos alguns de seus aspectos, como a estruturação de uma imagem pública em associação com o fortalecimento e legalização de seu governo, procurando entendê-los no interior do conflito entre inovação e conservação, ou seja, de distanciamento ou aproximação dos modelos e convenções de construção simbólica do poder já utilizados durante o antigo regime. Para tanto, observamos os elementos de propaganda implícitos na fabricação da imagem napoleônica e na legitimação de seu poder, buscando perceber igualmente a dinâmica de sua elaboração e as repercussões desta imagem no imaginário coletivo. deparamo-nos, assim, com diversos "Bonapartes" e "Napoleões", ficções sociais construídas pelo uso de um conjunto de criações culturais.The purpose of this work is to analyze some points of the symbolic construction of Napoleon Bonaparte's power, In its direct relationship with a personalizing project of power and of political legitimation, catching its meaning in a universe of political practices and representations in the end of the 18th and early 19th centuries. We give privilege to some of its aspects, like the structure of the public image associated with the empowerment and legalization of his government, trying to understand them within the inner conflict between innovation and conservation, i.e., the distancing or approaching of the models and conventions of power's symbolic construction already used during the Ancien Regime. To this, we observe the elements of propaganda that are implicit in the construction of the Napoleonic image and in the legitimation of his power, aiming to realize equally the dynamics of its formation and the repercussions of this image in the collective imaginary. We face, therefore, several "Bonaparte" and "Napoleons", social fictions built by the lise of a set of cultural creations.

Full textAbstract:
Lancashire redefined popular politics and national identity in its own image. The perceived threat of invasion by Napoleon, together with the Irish Rebellion, sustained the evolution in extra-parliamentary politics that had begun in reaction to the American and French revolutions. The meanings and principles of 'radicalism,' 'loyalism' and 'Britain' continued to be debated and contested in 1798-1812. Elite loyalism became even more exclusive, developing into the Orange movement. Radicals remained silent until the Napoleonic invasion scares had faded and opportunities arose for renewed vocal criticisms of government foreign and economic policy from 1806. Conflicts re- emerged between radicals and loyalists in the middle classes and gentry which provided the training for a new generation of postwar radical leaders and the popularity of the free trade campaign. Inhabitants of Lancashire felt British in reaction to the French and Irish, but it was a Lancashire Britishness. Political identities and actions followed national patterns of events but were always marked with a regional stamp. This was in part because most political movements were held together by a shared 'sense of place' rather than vague notions of class-consciousness or shared class identity. A sense of place manifested itself in the regional organisation of strikes, petitions and the Orange institution. Furthermore, it could also entail a common bitter or defiant provincialism against the government or monarchy. In an atmosphere of anti-corruption and a growing desire for peace, this provincial frustration ironically brought professed loyalists closer to radicalism in campaigns against the Orders in Council and other government policies. Provincialism and other elements of regional identity ensured that any ideas of Britishness were tempered through local concerns and allegiances, but an identity with the nation that was not an acquiescent acceptance of national tropes and stereotypes. Lancashire Britishness was commercial, manufacturing, and above all, independent from homogenisation and the impositions of government.

Comme tous les souverains francais depuis louis xvi. Napoleon iii toucha durant son regne une allocation financiere. Appelee liste civile. Et jouit d'une dotation composee de plusieurs palais situes a paris et en province. Du gardemeuble de la couronne. Des manufactures des gobelins. De beauvais et de sevres. Et des musees du louvre. Du luxembourg et de versailles. Que fit l'empereur de sa listecivile ? il accorda de nombreuses subventions a des gens dans le besoin. A des chercheurs : comme la loi l'y obligeait. Il pourvut a l'entretien de sa dotation mais il fit aussi de nouvelles constructions : il crea le musee des antiquites nationales de saint-germain-enlaye et le musee des souverains. Qui fut supprime en 1872. Il se constitua. Tout comme l'imperatrice. Une collection de tableaux et sculptures modernes. Principalement par des achats au salon. Le comte de nieuwerkerke etait charge des acquisitions destinees aux musees s'il sut enrichir le louvre par des achats prestigieux. Malgre un budget reduit. Il ignora des artistes contemporains importants. Deja reconnus. Apres 1870. Le sequestre fut mis sur les biens de la famille imperiale. Et un long litige l'opposa a l'etat sur la propriete des objets d'art un grand nombre de tableaux et de sculptures furent restitues a l'imperatrice. Tandis que les collections d'armures de pierrefonds et le musee chinois de fontainebleau furent restitues a l'etat. Cette etude est completee par la liste des tableaux et sculptures modernes acquis par la liste civile.

Full textAbstract:
Entre 1814 et 1830, 243 préfets se succèdent au service des derniers Bourbons, Louis XVIII et Charles X, au cours des deux Restaurations, que sépare en 1815 l’épisode des Cent-Jours. Chargées de représenter le souverain dans les départements, ces personnalités sont, sauf exception, tombées dans l’oubli. De leur étude dépend pourtant la compréhension des rouages administratifs du pays et des modalités d’intervention de l’État. Les préfets incarnent peut-être mieux que quiconque la tension entre le maintien des structures administratives héritées de l’an VIII et la volonté de « renouer la chaîne des temps » avec l’Ancien Régime, tension qui est le propre de la Restauration. Tous d’ailleurs n’ont pas la même idée de la monarchie constitutionnelle et de ses institutions, dont ils sont partie prenante au cours de leur existence, que ce soit comme administrateurs, membres des assemblées locales, députés, pairs de France ou ministres ; tous n’ont pas la même idée de leurs rapports au roi, à la patrie et au département confié à leurs soins. Aussi participent-ils pleinement du règne des derniers Bourbons, que nombre de contemporains, Chateaubriand et Balzac en tête, définissent comme un temps des plus composites. Aussi donnent-ils à voir une mosaïque dont cette étude de prosopographie se veut le reflet le plus fidèle possibleBetween 1814 and 1830, during the two Restorations, the “Cent-Jours” excepted, 243 prefects serve the last Bourbons, Louis XVIII and Charles X. All these personalities represent the sovereign in the departments. With a few exceptions, they are forgotten nowadays. But it seems necessary to study them in order to understand the French administration and the public action, especially during the period considered. French Restoration’s prefects embody perhaps better than anyone the tension which exists at that time between the will to keep the administrative structures created by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1800 and the temptation to recreate the old monarchy. For that matter, all of them don’t understand in the same way the constitutional monarchy and its institutions. They don’t have the same idea of the king, the fatherland and the department they have to run. Thus, they are emblematic of the last Bourbon’s reign, defined by many writers of this period, for instance Chateaubriand and Balzac, as a genuine mixed time. They consequently compose a mosaic of men we tried to analyze as rigorously as possible in the prosopographic study

Full textAbstract:
Un territoire est indéniablement associé à Napoléon et à sa légende dans l'esprit des populations. Il ne s'agit pas de la Corse, lieu de naissance, mais bien de Sainte-Hélène, lieu d’exil, de mort mais aussi de construction de la légende napoléonienne. C'est sur cette île de l'Atlantique sud qu'entre 1815 et 1821 celui qui, pendant plus de vingt ans, a fait trembler l'Europe, vit les dernières années de son existence. Le captif pendant toutes les années de sa détention sur Sainte-Hélène n'est peut-être à aucun autre moment de sa vie si étroitement observé. Cependant, les Français, entre 1815 et 1821, ignorent ce qui se passe sur cette île perdue de l’Atlantique sud. Les nouvelles sur ce personnage sont rares sinon absentes et l'absence d'information véridique sur les événements de l'île est considérable. Ce constat est accentué par la situation de Sainte-Hélène. Il s'agit d'un lieu éloigné, inconnu et difficilement compréhensible pour la grandes majorités des Français du XIXe siècle. Cette absence d'information entraine les plus folles rumeurs. Effectivement, les fausses nouvelles parsèment l'exil de Napoléon, des Français répandent des bruits, prétendent connaître la vérité et la transmettre généralement oralement, plus rarement par l'écrit, aux autres. Si les bruits sont essentiellement émis entre 1815 et 1821 ils se poursuivent au cours des années 1820 et même au-delà par de multiples relais.Nombre de bruits et d'ouvrages offrent de multiples histoires toutes plus sensationnelles les unes par rapport aux autres sur l'exil de Napoléon. Parmi elles, Napoléon s'est évadé de Sainte‑Hélène. De véritables faits ont inspiré les nombreuses théories évasionistes qui fleurissent à partir de 1815. Ainsi, des projets d’enlèvement ont indéniablement été pensés. Néanmoins, aucun des plans n’est mis à exécution, amenant en conséquence un questionnement sur les raisons de l’absence de leur concrétisation, n'ont-ils pas simplement été de simples échanges verbaux entre Bonapartistes ?Enfin, les rumeurs perdurent après 1821 en partie grâce aux arts. En effet, l'internement de Napoléon a beaucoup été représenté par la littérature, la peinture et plus récemment par le cinéma. Par exemple, de très nombreux auteurs du XIXe siècle se sont inspirés du séjour de l'Empereur à Sainte-Hélène de façon plus ou moins évidente et ont réinvesti les éléments constitutifs de la légende.Toutes les rumeurs et les représentations artistiques de la captivité déforment les dernières années de Napoléon. Or, ces représentations altérées restent dans la mémoire collective car elles sont plus faciles à retenir, elles sont de meilleures histoires que la réalité... Et donc, la mythologie fini par altérer la réalité historique. Par exemple, l'idée d’un Napoléon humilié en permanence par les Anglais est ancrée dans la mentalité populaire comme parmi les élites. D'ailleurs cette distorsion de la réalité est une partie intégrante de la légende napoléonienne. Sans l'idée du calvaire de Napoléon à Sainte-Hélène prisonnier des puissances de la Sainte-Alliance et l’image négative de Hudson Lowe, la figure du captif auprès des libéraux et des nationalistes au XIXe siècle n’aurait pas été la même. La légende de Sainte-Hélène est donc une partie fondamentale de l’histoire napoléonienneA territory is undeniably associated with Napoleon and his legend in the minds of the peoples. It is not a question of Corsica, place of birth, but of Saint Helena, place of exile, of death but also of construction of the napoleonic legend. It is on this island of the South Atlantic that between 1815 and 1821 he who, during more than twenty years, made tremble Europe, saw the last years of its existence. The captive during all the years of his detention on St. Helena Napoléon is closely observed. However, the French, between 1815 and 1821, do not know what is happening on this lost island of the South Atlantic. News about this character is rare if not absent and the lack of truthful information about the events of the island is considerable. This observation is accentuated by the situation of St. Helena. It is a distant place, unknown and difficult to understand for the great majority of the French of the nineteenth century. This lack of information leads to the wildest rumors. Indeed, the false news strew the exile of Napoleon, French spread noises, claim to know the truth and to transmit it generally orally, more rarely in writing, to others. If the noises are essentially emitted between 1815 and 1821 they continue during the 1820s and even beyond by multiple relays. Many noises and books offer multiple stories all about Napoleon's exile. Among them, Napoleon escaped from Saint Helena. Real facts have inspired the many evasive theories that flourished from 1815. Thus, kidnapping projects have undeniably been thought out. Nevertheless, none of the plans are put into execution, leading consequently a questioning on the reasons of the absence of their concretization. Maybe, they were simple verbal exchanges between Bonapartists? Finally, rumors endure after 1821 partly thanks to the arts. Indeed, the internment of Napoleon was much represented by literature, painting and more recently by cinema. For example, many nineteenth-century writers drew inspiration from the Emperor's stay in Saint Helena in a more or less obvious way and re-invested the constituent elements of the legend. All the rumors and artistic representations of captivity distort the last years of Napoleon. However, these altered representations remain in the collective memory because they are easier to remember, they are better stories than reality ... And so, mythology ended up altering the historical reality. For example, the idea of a Napoleon permanently humiliated by the British is rooted in the popular mentality as among the elites. Moreover this distortion of reality is an integral part of the Napoleonic legend. Without the idea of Napoleon's ordeal on St. Helena prisoner of the Holy Alliance and the negative image of Hudson Lowe, the figure of the captive among liberals and nationalists in the nineteenth century would not have been the same. The legend of St. Helena is therefore a fundamental part of Napoleonic history

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse porte sur l’histoire de l’Église catholique romaine entre la fin du XVIIIe et les premières décennies du XIXe siècle. L’itinéraire du barnabite Francesco Luigi Fontana constitue un prisme pertinent pour éclairer d’un jour nouveau les dynamiques internes à la Curie romaine et les sensibilités des collaborateurs de Fontana, lesquelles permettent aussi d’expliquer les solutions apportées aux nombreuses questions intra- et extraecclésiales soumises à Rome. L’étude des prises de décisions fait apparaître une Curie non monolithique mais au sein de laquelle plusieurs solutions étaient envisagées avant l’adoption de celle définitive.Au-delà même de cette perspective, l’enjeu de la présente recherche est d’ordre méthodologique, s’agissant du type d’analyse à conduire et des catégories à adopter pour comprendre les prises de position intellectuelles, politiques et ecclésiologiques des membres de la Curie. Un autre questionnement a trait à l’exercice, qui fait l’objet de récents approfondissements historiographiques, de la biographie et en l’espèce de la figure d’un cardinal placé à la croisée de plusieurs thématiques majeures de la période considérée, interrogeant enfin certains éléments de continuité de l’histoire de la papauté et du catholicisme de la fin de l’époque moderne au début de la période contemporaineThis doctoral thesis is focused on the history of the Roman Church between the end of the 18th Century and the beginning of the 19th Century. Using Francesco Luigi Fontana’s biography, I will describe the ecclesiastical dynamics and the different sensibilities of the curiali (the members of the Roman Curia) who cooperated with the barnabite to find a solution for both intraecclesiali and extraecclesiali problems submitted to Rome from all over the world.Consequently I will outline the developments in policymaking, in order to represent a non-monolithic Roman Curia, in which –conversely– different solutions were examined before making a definitive political decision.Furthermore this doctoral thesis reflects upon the problems linked to the paradigm chosen and upon the opportunity to use a biography and the category of intransigenza –employed in this study to interpret the intellectual, political and ecclesiological opinions of the curiali– to determine the crucial issues and to identify the elements of continuity of ecclesiastical history

Ross, Monique Deidre. "The development and evolution of Parisian fashion supremacy from François I to Napoleon III." DigitalCommons@Robert W. Woodruff Library, Atlanta University Center, 1999. http://digitalcommons.auctr.edu/dissertations/2139.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis charts the development of Parisian fashion supremacy, dating from the 16th century reign of François I to the eventual establishment of haute couture in the 19th century. Via a century-by-century analysis, key individuals who contributed to the development of fashion dominance and haute couture are highlighted.
This analysis is composed of three chapters and a conclusion. The first chapter concentrates on the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, identifying François I and Louis XIV as central personalities who influenced French fashion supremacy during their respective eras. This chapter also mentions key aspects of the French Renaissance which makes this a logical starting point for this analysis.
The second chapter identifies Madame de Pompadour and Marie Antoinette as the most influential personal ties influencing fashion trends on a worldwide scale. It marks the emergence of the female as the dominant arbiter of fashion; taking the position formally held by the French kings. Characteristics during the reigns of Louis XV and Louis XVI which allowed this transition of authority to take place are discussed. Finally, it is during this chapter that Paris emerges as the fashion capital of the world.
The third chapter reviews the nineteenth century and its ultimate contribution to French fashion dominance: haute couture. Key elements during the reign of Napoleon III, along with the creative genius and dressmaking ability of Charles Frederick Worth are credited with its creation. Additionally, the development of the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Française and its influences on the fashion world are analyzed.
The conclusion summarizes the evolution of French fashion and discusses France's current position.

Dans cette thèse, nous nous intéressons d’abord aux origines du cadre arabo-espagnol en montrant comment la société du XIXe siècle est tournée vers l’Orient et comment l’art est pénétré par ce nouveau monde, notamment grâce à l’orientalisme et au romantisme. Nous abordons l’iconographie orientale hugolienne par le biais de ses souvenirs personnels, des traces laissées par ses voyages, en tenant compte de sa biographie mais aussi de la peinture et de la littérature arabo-espagnoles pour étudier des figures et mouvements emblématiques de l’Orient hugolien. Ensuite nous approchons l’univers arabo-espagnol et ses motifs récurrents. Nous voyons comment la culture arabo-espagnole a influencé les écrits de Hugo. Enfin, nous plongeons dans l’âme espagnole de Hugo avec son caractère fantasmatique et ésotérique. Toutes les passions humaines sont enfermées dans ce monde arabo-espagnol et permettent à Hugo de se livrer tel qu’il est réellementIn this thesis, firstly we investigate the origins of the Moorish Spanish context by showing how XIXth century society is turned towards the Orient and how Art is permeated by this new world in particular due to the influences of orientalism and romanticism. We discuss Hugo’s oriental iconography through his personal memoirs, notes from his travel journals, taking into account his biography but also by studying figures and movements symbolic of Hugo’s orient as depicted in Moorish Spanish painting and literature. Secondly, we look into the Moorish Spanish world and its recurrent themes. We illustrate how Moorish Spanish culture influenced Hugo’s writings. Lastly, we delve into Hugo’s Spanish soul with all its phantasmagorical and esoteric elements. Every human passion can be found in this Moorish Spanish world which allows Hugo to reveal his true inner character

Full textAbstract:
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.

Full textAbstract:
Le recours fréquent aux serments pendant la décennie révolutionnaire a déjà attiré l’attention de nombre d’historiens. Le serment civique a été surtout considéré en tant qu’acte significatif autour duquel semble s’être joué la légitimité révolutionnaire. Effectivement, du serment du roi et des députés de février 1790, à celui des prêtres adhérents à la Constitution civile du clergé, ou encore à celui que la troupe doit prêter après la fuite du roi, des formules constitutionnelles de 1791 et 1792 à celles de haine à la royauté de l’âge du Directoire, jusqu’aux variations apportées par Napoléon, le serment est un élément fondamental de la grammaire politique révolutionnaire. Mon projet de recherche se propose de considérer le serment dans une perspective plus vaste, en comparant la situation française aux expériences des Républiques Sœurs, en élargissant mon propos jusqu’à l’âge de la Restauration pour révéler l’importance du serment dans la culture politique contemporaineThis thesis aims to study the characteristics of political trust and loyalty during the eighteenth century and the French Revolution. These characteristics are essential to understand the revolutionary culture, as they involve one of the most divisive issues of that time : civic oath. My thesis is aimed to clarify how the experience of oaths shaped the relationship between citizens and power during the revolutionary decade (1789-1799) in France and in Italy, and how this relationship is empowered by narratives taken from religion, the culture of honor, and ideology. From a wider, transnational viewpoint, my primary goal was to provide a deeper look into this key topic of the historiography of French Revolution

Full textAbstract:
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.
