Abstract:
During the Russian-Ottoman war of 1768-1774 Russia became the first European country that invaded Middle East in the Modern times and even for the short period occupied its part: the town of Beirut. The events that preceded the assault and capture of the town were fixed by the local chroniclers and Russian officers; as well they were reflected in the messages of Arab rulers and the reports of the diplomats residing in Syria. As a result the volumetric picture of the society is emerging that for the first time faced the colonial expansion of the modernized Europe. The second part of presented article presents the picture of life of the town during the siege of 1773 and its following Russian troops’ occupation, that at first indeed took place, and then imaginary. Special attention is paid to the changes in the system of co-existence of different ethno-religious communities of Beirut.

Abstract:
El 9 de diciembre de 1774, Mohamed ben Abdalah, sultán de Marruecos, puso sitio a Melilla que se prolongó hasta el 19 de marzo de 1775. Dada la gravedad de la confrontación bélica, las autoridades españolas habían establecido un buen equipo sanitario, constituido por dos médicos y trece cirujanos, además de un boticario y un sangrador. Manuel Ahuir era el médico titular y Miguel Fernández de Loaiza, el otro médico, fue enviado desde Málaga. De los cirujanos, Antonio Aldana, Ignacio de Arroyo y José Serrano formaban parte de la dotación del Real Hospital de Melilla, mientras que Jorge Grenier, Juan Antonio, Juan Modest y Rodrigo Moreno vinieron de Málaga, y Ramón Bertran, Antonio Busqué, Juan Antonio Coll, Juan Llensa, Pablo Antonio Querol y Francisco Roca fueron enviados por el Real Colegio de Cirugía de Barcelona y llegaron en el jabeque El Pilar. Estos médicos y cirujanos tuvieron que asistir a numerosísimos heridos y en gran parte gracias a ellos la plaza pudo resistir durante más de tres meses, a pesar de los continuos ataques de las tropas enemigas, hasta que el ejército sitiador, impotente ante la heroica resistencia de Melilla, levantó el sitio el día de San José de 1775.On December 9, 1774, Mohammed ben Abdallah, sultan of Morocco, besieged Melilla. This siege lasted until March 19, 1775. Because of the seriousness of military confrontation, the Spanish authorities had established a good medical team, consisting of two doctors and thirteen surgeons, as well as an apothecary and a phlebotomist. Manuel Ahuir was the titular physician and Miguel Fernández de Loaiza, the other doctor, was sent from Malaga. Three surgeons, Antonio Aldana, Ignacio de Arroyo and José Serrano, were part of the crew of the Royal Hospital of Melilla, while Jorge Grenier, Juan Antonio, Juan Modest and Rodrigo Moreno came from Malaga, and Ramón Bertran, Antonio Busqué, Juan Antonio Coll, Juan Llensa, Pablo Antonio Querol and Francisco Roca were sent by the Royal College of Surgery of Barcelona, and arrived in the xebec El Pilar. These physicians and surgeons had to attend numerous wounded and largely thanks to them the place could stand for more than three months, in despite of continuous attacks of the enemy troops, until the besieging army, helpless against the heroic resistance of Melilla, raised the siege the day of Saint Joseph, 1775.

Abstract:
El desastre militar y económico que supuso para España su participación en la Guerra de los Siete Años (1761-1763) forzó a Carlos III a impulsar un proceso reformador a todos los niveles de la Monarquía con el objeto de mantener sus posesiones. La Real Armada fue una de las instituciones más afectadas por las reformas, las cuales también alcanzaron a su área administrativa. En este entorno concreto, los cambios llegaron de la mano de unas nuevas ordenanzas publicadas en 1772 (Pertrechos e Ingenieros) y en 1776 (Arsenales) que implantaron nuevos procesos, nuevos responsables, y una innovadora forma de financiación basada en un control presupuestario. Este nuevo sistema de gestión económico-administrativa de la Marina fue muy criticado en su época, acusándole de no ser merecedor de este nombre y ser uno de los responsables de los males que aquejaron a la Real Armada de finales del siglo XVIII y principios del XIX (Salazar y Salazar, 1814).El objetivo de la tesis es corroborar o rebatir la existencia de un sistema de gestión económico-administrativa en la Real Armada en el periodo 1772-1788, tanto desde un punto de vista teórico como la verificación de su aplicación práctica en los Departamentos peninsulares.

Abstract:
La gestión de las erogaciones del Real Situado en una Caja receptora, como la de Buenos Aires, permite comprender las prioridades en la adjudicación de los recursos, pero también explica el modo en que eran dispensados y los mecanismos con que se desplegaba el financiamiento de los gastos implicados en la defensa. Considerando que el ramo del Situado representaba el rubro fiscal con mayor peso en la tesorería local, los mecanismos articulados por la Real hacienda borbónica para financiar los gastos implicados en suministros militares constituyen un observatorio clave para identificar cómo era gobernado y administrado el Erario imperial, en la escala local, durante una coyuntura crítica para el gobierno de la monarquía española: las reconfiguraciones en la defensa y en la Hacienda real después de la Guerra de los Siete Años.

Abstract:
En 1759, le chevalier de La Pause, un officier français débarqué en Nouvelle-France en 1755 et qui a connu quatre années de guerre en Amérique, note dans son journal : « Toute la science de la guerre en Canada consiste dans l’attaque ou la défense des postes qui ferment ou ouvrent la communication d’une frontière à l’autre ». Cette remarque se veut révélatrice de la place qu'occupe la guerre de siège, dans l'esprit des officiers européens, dans la conduite de la guerre en Amérique. Mais par extension, elle montre également le poids qu'occupe cette pratique particulière de la guerre dans la culture militaire des armées européennes au milieu du XVIIIe siècle. Cette étude analyse et compare le modèle militaire théorique de la guerre de siège tel que pratiqué en Europe au Siècle des Lumières avec son application par l’armée française dans le contexte colonial de la Nouvelle-France lors de la guerre de Sept Ans.
In 1759, the Chevalier de La Pause, a French officer who landed in New France in 1755 and saw four years of war in North America, wrote in his diary: "The science of all war in Canada consists in the attack or defense of posts that close off or open up communication from one region to another. " This remark reveals the place that siege warfare occupied in the minds of European officers and in the conduct of war in North America. By extension, it also shows the importance of this particular method of warfare in the military culture of the European armies in the middle of the eighteenth century. This study analyzes the theoretical military model of siege warfare as practiced in Europe during the Age of Enlightenment and comparatively examines the French Army’s use of these methods in the Seven Years' War in New France.

Abstract:
This chapter covers the beginning of the American Revolution in the South Carolina backcountry and explains why many frontier people, especially Presbyterians, saw the rejection of royal authority not so much as rebellion, but rather as a bid to establish order and protect themselves from a corrupt royal government that allegedly was encouraging Cherokee attacks on white settlements. In this chapter, Pickens emerges as an important local militia leader and participates in several early campaigns and battles, including the first siege of Ninety Six and the Cherokee campaign of 1776, and narrowly escapes death and emerges as a hero in the “Ring Fight.”

Abstract:
‘The general, 1796–1799’ describes how it was the French Revolution that made Napoleon’s stupefying ascent possible. The Revolution badly damaged the traditional hierarchies of French society, opening the door to radically new forms of social mobility and political power. It also unleashed newly intense forms of war, and provided French rulers with new ways to harness their country’s formidable natural resources against its enemies. Napoleon displayed both military and political genius. His successful battles in Italy and Austria are outlined, followed by his campaign in Egypt, which triggered a new period of large-scale European war. Finally, his return to France to sieze power from the French parliament is described.

Abstract:
When Spain declared war to Britain on June 21, 1779, the Spanish empire had been already supporting the American patriots for several years. Money and supplies were channelled both through Gardoqui & Sons, a Spanish firm with long standing commercial ties with Boston, and New Orleans from where they went up the Mississippi and then by land to George Washington’s Continental Army in the East. In order to prevent a British attack against Spanish Louisiana, Bernardo de Gálvez launched a pre-emptive strike against the ill-prepared and little defended British outposts of Fort Manchac (September 7, 1779) and Baton Rouge (September 21, 1779) that quickly surrendered. The next objective, Mobile, had stronger defenses so reinforcements were needed from Cuba. The high command on the island, however doubted both the operation, and the commander. More so, on January 1780, the Spanish forces that sailed from New Orleans were mostly wrecked by a storm. Despite this setback, Gálvez continued his march towards Mobile and after the arrival of the long-awaited reinforcements and supplies from Havana he was able to start the siege by late February 1780. On March 13, the Spanish artillery was able to breach Fort Charlotte’s walls and the British garrison surrendered.

Abstract:
From war machine to “decorous backdrop”: the Citadel of Turin in the nineteenth centuryThe citadel of Turin, built in the sixteenth century by the duke Emanuele Filiberto, became an expensive and obsolete object that hampered the enlargements during the nineteenth century. The Enlargement Plan for the capital designed by Carlo Promis (1851-1852) progressively reduced the military constraints facing the citadel. In 1856 the City Council decreed the demolition of the defensive structure. During the demolition one section of the building was spared: the donjon. In 1864 it became the urban background of the statue erected in honor of Pietro Micca, the “soldier mineworker” hero of the siege in 1706. Therefore, this project became an opportunity for the Municipality and the Ministry of War to discuss two central issues. On one hand, the need to set up a “decorous backdrop” to the Piedmontese hero, and on the other hand keeping the costs of the restoration project to a minimum. A well-known architect from Turin named Carlo Ceppi presented an accurate report about the choices of the “restoration” works. Finally, in 1892 the responsibility of the work was given to the engineer Riccardo Brayda, who was an expert in medieval and modern architecture.
