Desde 2002, en que comenzó su andadura, la tarea desarrollada por nuestros ante- cesores, Glicerio Sánchez Recio como director y Francisco Sevillano Calero como secretario, fue decisiva en el impulso original del proyecto, en su con- solidación y en que la revista obtuviera un amplio reconocimiento entre los y las especialistas en Historia Contemporánea. Nos gustaría, en la medida de nuestras posibilidades, continuar el trabajo precedente y plantear nuevos retos. En este sentido, quisiéramos en primer lugar abrir la revista a nuevos ámbitos de estudio circunscritos entre los si- glos XIX y XXI y a perspectivas teóricas actuales, con la finalidad de con- tribuir al debate epistemológico y teórico en la investigación sobre la época contemporánea. En segundo lugar, nos proponemos adaptar la revista a los niveles de ca- lidad exigidos actualmente a las publicaciones académicas, introduciendo al- gunos cambios formales que permitan que Pasado y Memoria se convierta en una herramienta útil de reflexión. Nos interesa también que los contenidos de la revista sean accesibles, por lo que queremos reforzar y mantener al día su presencia en los foros y repositorios más utilizados en la profesión, como Dialnet y RUA (Repositorio de la Universidad de Alicante). Para afrontar esta nueva etapa, que entendemos como un proyecto co- lectivo, contamos con el respaldo y la colaboración de todo el Consejo de Redacción, del Consejo Asesor y, estamos convencidos, de quienes se dedican a la Historia Contemporánea. Vaya nuestro agradecimiento por delante, así como nuestro compromiso de intentar ofrecer un espacio de discusión que contribuya al avance del conocimiento y la reflexión en nuestra disciplina.

Para ello utilizaremos principalmente unas car- tas de María Esclavitud Sarmiento, condesa viuda de Fernán Núñez, encontradas en los Archivos Nacionales de París. Esta dama de la alta nobleza reflejó en su correspon- dencia los miedos, esperanzas y especulaciones que asaltaron a la sociedad madrileña del momento. De esta manera podremos tomarle el pulso a la España del momento con un testigo presencial (femenino, lo que es aún más novedoso) que fue recogien- do las noticias y rumores que le llegaban, muchas veces obsoletos ya en la siguiente carta a causa del estado de ebullición política. Gracias a sus contactos con gente muy bien informada (como su hijo, el conde de Fernán Núñez, o miembros del gobierno, como Pedro Cevallos o Eusebio Bardaji), la condesa viuda nos ofrece interesante in- formación sobre hechos y personajes fundamentales del momento: Fernando VII (su ascenso al trono o la gestación de su viaje a Bayona), Napoleón (su llegada a España y su reconocimiento o no del nuevo rey), Manuel Godoy (su prisión y su entrega a las * Miembro del proyecto de investigación I+D: «La Corona en la España del siglo XIX.

Napoleon Bonaparte, crowned Emperor of the French in 1804, returned to Paris. Napoleon spent most of his time as emperor away, fighting various wars. But, frightful words had reached his ears that impelled him to return to France. He was told that Joseph Fouché, the Minister of Police, and Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord, the former Minister of Foreign Affairs, had held a meeting behind his back. The fact alone that Fouché and Talleyrand were meeting was curious. They loathed each other. Fouché and Talleyrand had launched public attacks against each other for years. When Napoleon heard these two were trying to reach a reconciliation, he greeted it with suspicion immediately. He called Fouché and Talleyrand to his office along with three other high-ranking members of the government. Napoleon reminded Fouché and Talleyrand that they swore an oath of allegiance when the coup of 18 Brumaire was staged in 1799.

  • Napoleon Andrew Roberts Reviewed by Robert Schmidt
    Napoleon Andrew Roberts Reviewed by Robert Schmidt About the Author Andrew Roberts is a British author who graduated with honors from Gonville & Caius College, Cambridge and is presently a visiting professor in the War Studies Department at Kings College, London. He has written or edited 19 books which have been translated in 22 languages and appears on radio and television around the world. About the Book There have been many books about Napoleon, but Andrew Roberts’ single-volume biography is the first to make full use of the ongoing French publication of Napoleon’s 33,000 letters. Seemingly leaving no stone unturned, Roberts begins in Corsica in 1769, pointing to Napoleon’s roots on that island—and a resulting fascination with the Roman Empire—as an early indicator of what history might hold for the boy. Napoleon’s upbringing—from his roots, to his penchant for holing up and reading about classic wars, to his education in France, all seemed to point in one direction—and by the time he was 24, he was a French general. Though he would be dead by fifty one, it was only the beginning of what he would accomplish. Although Napoleon: A Life is 800 pages long, it is both enjoyable and illuminating. Napoleon comes across as whip smart, well-studied, ambitious to a fault, a little awkward, and perhaps most importantly, a man who could turn on the charm when he needed to. Through his portrait, Roberts seems to be arguing two things: that Napoleon was far more than just a complex soldier, and that his contributions to the world greatly surpassed those of the evil dictators that some compare him to.

  • At Water's Edge: Britain, Napoleon, and the World, 1793-1815
    AT WATER’S EDGE: BRITAIN, NAPOLEON, AND THE WORLD, 1793-1815 ______________________________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ______________________________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ______________________________________________________________________________ by Christopher T. Golding May 2017 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Gregory J. W. Urwin, Advisory Chair, Department of History Dr. Travis Glasson, Department of History Dr. Rita Krueger, Department of History Dr. Jeremy Black, External Member, University of Exeter (UK) © Copyright 2017 by Christopher T. Golding All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT 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.

  • Blanton Organizes Exhibition of Prints and Paintings by Francisco De Goya
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MEDIA CONTACT: Tessa Krieger-Carlisle, 512-471-8433, [email protected] BLANTON ORGANIZES EXHIBITION OF PRINTS AND PAINTINGS BY FRANCISCO DE GOYA Goya: Mad Reason June 19 – September 25, 2016 AUSTIN, TX—April 5, 2016—The Blanton Museum of Art at the University of Texas at Austin presents Goya: Mad Reason, an exhibition of nearly 150 prints and paintings by renowned Spanish court painter Francisco de Goya. The series of prints comprising Goya: Mad Reason—borrowed from Yale University Art Gallery’s distinguished Arthur Ross Collection— illustrate the artist’s mastery of forms and concepts as he grappled with the changing political and intellectual landscape of his native Spain in the early nineteenth century. Yale chose the Blanton as a partner for its Ross Collection sharing initiative, and the Blanton in turn selected Yale’s superb and affecting Goya prints as a foundation for this exhibition. Select paintings on loan from the Kimbell Art Museum, the Meadows Museum, and the Museum of Fine Arts Houston will further punctuate Goya: Mad Reason thematically and visually, offering new and insightful ways of understanding the artist’s prints. “We are honored to partner with Yale University Art Gallery to bring selections from the renowned Arthur Ross Collection to Austin,” remarked Blanton Director Simone Wicha. “This project has also afforded us the opportunity to borrow paintings from other key institutions across Texas, offering further insight into the remarkable works of Francisco de Goya, an artist whose oeuvre touches on the very fabric of human nature, and whose profound creativity remains an inspiration centuries after his death.” Among Spain’s most celebrated artists, Francisco de Goya (1746–1828) is sometimes considered the first truly modern artist.
