    Perceiving French Presence in the Levant: French Subjects in the Sicil of 18th Century Ottoman Salonica «Perceiving French Presence in the Levant: French Subjects in the Sicil of 18th Century Ottoman Salonica» by Eyal Ginio Source: Southeast­Studies (Südost­Forschungen), issue: 65­66 / 2006­2007, pages: 137­164, on www.ceeol.com. Perceiving French Presence in the Levant: French Subjects in the Sicil of 18th Century Ottoman Salonica By EYAL GINIO (Jerusalem) A loaf of fi ne, white French bread, called francala by the Ottomans and apparently of Italian origin, cast its shadow in the fi rst months of 1806 on the already deteriorating relationship between the Ottoman Empire and the French state (or devlet, the term adopted by the Ottomans when referring to post-revolutionary France). We learn about this debate from a sultanic decree, a ferman, issued on 6th April 1806 in response to a petition submitted by the French chargé d’aff aires (maslahatgüzar) in the imperial capi- tal. Th e petition involved the French claim regarding their ancient privilege to possess their own bakery in which francala bread and rusks (peksimet) would be produced.1 Th is privilege, the edict emphasized, was vital in order for the French to supply their “necessities of life” (kefaf-i nefs). Th e clientele for these pastries in Salonica was quite considerable: according to the petition, it included the consul (komisar in the new Ot- toman terminology) and his agents, merchants, all kind of visitors, and seafarers – in short, the local French “nation”.2 We can presume

McCLOY THE NEGRO IN FRANCE UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY PRESS Copyright© 1961 by the University of Kentucky Press Printed in the United States of America by the Division of Printing, University of Kentucky Library of Congress Catalog Card No. 61-6554 FOREWORD THE PURPOSE of this study is to present a history of the Negro who has come to France, the reasons for his coming, the record of his stay, and the reactions of the French to his presence. It is not a study of the Negro in the French colonies or of colonial conditions, for that is a different story. Occasion­ ally, however, reference to colonial happenings is brought in as necessary to set forth the background. The author has tried assiduously to restrict his attention to those of whose Negroid blood he could be certain, but whenever the distinction has been significant, he has considered as mulattoes all those having any mixture of Negro and white blood.

  • Public Opinion and Foreign Policy: British and French Relations with the Netherlands
    Public Opinion and Foreign Policy: British and French Relations with the Netherlands, 1785-1815 Graeme Edward Callister PhD University of York Department of History September 2013 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the interplay of public opinion, national identity and foreign policy during the period 1785-1815, focusing on three consistently interconnected countries: the Netherlands, France and Great Britain. The Netherlands provides the centrepiece to the study, which considers how the Dutch were perceived as a nation, a people and as a political entity, at both governmental and popular levels, in the three countries throughout the period. Public opinion is theorised as a two-part phenomenon. Active public opinion represents the collated thoughts and responses of a certain public to an event or set of circumstances. Latent public opinion represents the sum of generally-accepted underlying social norms, stereotypes or preconceptions; the perceptions and representations latently present in unconscious mentalités. The thesis examines how perceptions and representations of the Netherlands in all three countries fed into public opinion and, ultimately, into national identity either of the self or the ‘other’. It then investigates the extent to which the triangular policies of Britain, France and the various incarnations of the Dutch state were shaped by popular perceptions, identities and opinion. While active opinion is shown to have generally been of negligible importance to the policy-making process, it is argued that the underlying themes of latent opinion often provided the conceptual background that politicians from all three countries used to make policy. The influence of latent opinion was often as much unconscious as deliberate.
