France, Britain, and the Struggle for the Revolutionary Western Mediterranean
This book investigates the conflict over control over the Western Mediterranean in the late eighteenth-century. The Western Mediterranean during the 1790s featured a constant struggle for control over the region. While most histories point to military events such as the Italian Campaign as descriptive of this struggle between the two competing ideological forces of Revolutionary France and the Counter-Revolutionary First Coalition led by Britain, this book takes a different approach. Rather than looking at the struggle between ideologies, this book looks at the struggle within those ideologies, arguing that the Western Mediterranean states were not simply the battlefields or the prizes of the struggle, but were active participants with goals of autonomy or neutrality. The focus stretches beyond conflict between France and Britain, into the adaptation of ideology for different uses in Tuscany, Toulon, Algiers, Spain, and especially Corsica.
Casticismo e ideología en la Corte de Carlos IV de Benito Pérez Galdós
El término casticismo es un concepto equivoco. Los historiadores lo han tratado como un fenómeno cultural, desde la literatura ha venido siendo una forma de ser, en ocasiones una pose… pero nadie ha sabido definir este fenómeno histórico. Lo es porque si como hecho histórico define una imagen, un periodo el que ocupa el último tercio del siglo XVIII, concretamente 1766 y converge en 1808. Patria, independencia y libertad empiezan a bullir a nivel popular. Desde el punto de vista histórico-antropológico, si podemos unir todos los contenidos y aparatos formales en una misma razón de ser, podremos apreciar que concepto representa mucho más. Este, no obstante, no es un trabajo sobre ...
Dictionnaire de la Contre-Révolution
Hors des polémiques et des prises de positions partisanes, un ouvrage ambitieux qui analyse d'un oeil neuf un mouvement peu étudié et mal connu, mais décisif dans l'histoire politique et des idées depuis 1789. La Révolution française a été considérée immédiatement comme une rupture dans l'histoire de l'humanité. Contre elle, des hommes politiques, des penseurs, des théologiens, puis des masses populaires ont manifesté des refus vite qualifiés de " contre-révolutionnaires ". La Contre-Révolution s'identifie alors à l'attachement aux valeurs dynastiques, au respect des hiérarchies traditionnelles, à la défense de la religion catholique ainsi qu'au maintien des pratiques r...

Meridiana 78: Unificazione e Mezzogiorno
La fine del Regno delle Due Sicilie e la formazione dello Stato unitario, con la contrastata partecipazione del Sud alla vita nazionale, sono un luogo permanente del confronto politico e intellettuale, oltre che del discorso pubblico italiano. Gli interventi registrati in occasione del centocinquantenario testimoniano che intorno a questi problemi c’è un interesse molto più diffuso dell’attenzione di ristretti gruppi di specialisti. Al tempo stesso segnalano il rischio di ridurre questo fenomeno all’interno di visioni datate e provinciali. Le guerre e soprattutto i conflitti civili producono, dopo la loro conclusione, monumenti e identità opposte, rivendicazioni e miti differenti. U...
