A l'évidence, cette époque n'a pas laissé, et ne laisse pas, indifférent le public britannique. On se souvient de la Grande Terreur que fit régner la menace d'un débarquement. Mais, la figure de l'Empereur, si elle fut présentée de manière très négative de son vivant, pour des motifs de propagande, a toujours eu des admirateurs dans la société anglaise, y compris parmi les soldats, qui étaient loin de souscrire tous à la fable de l'ogre de Corse. Après sa mort, sa légende se développa en Angleterre comme ailleurs et le malheureux Hudson Lowe, à son retour de Sainte-Hélène, fut terriblement désappointé en s'apercevant que la plupart des gens lui tournaient le dos, alors qu'il pensait n'avoir accompli que son devoir. Ce n'est pas le buste de Wellington qui trônait sur le bureau de Winston Churchill mais celui de Napoléon. D'ailleurs, Wellington se serait satisfait, au moins en 1814, du maintien de l'Empereur des Français au pouvoir, à condition qu'il eût les dents et les ongles rognés. De cette abondante littérature britannique, peu de livres ont été traduits en français et c'est bien dommage car on y trouve des renseignements d'autant plus précieux qu'ils proviennent pour l'essentiel de notre ennemi le plus tenace, celui qui fut à l'origine de toutes les coalitions contre la France impériale et qui les finança toutes. Il n'est pas une guerre de l'Empire qui ne trouve son explication dans la rivalité entre l'Angleterre et la France, y compris la déplorable campagne de Russie, et bien des conquêtes françaises n'avaient d'autres buts que de servir de monnaie d'échange au moment de la négociation d'une paix générale. Beaucoup d'ouvrages sont aujourd'hui gratuitement accessibles, dans leur langue d'origine, sous forme de fichiers électroniques dans diverses bibliothèques à travers le monde. La présente bibliographie vise à en faciliter la consultation, grâce aux liens qu'elle contient, sans négliger cependant les ouvrages accessibles seulement en version papier moyennant espèces sonnantes et trébuchantes. Bien entendu, le sujet est beaucoup trop vaste pour prétendre à l'exhaustivité. Cependant, la version numérique de cette bibliographie présente l'avantage de pouvoir être mise à jour facilement et c'est ce que je me propose de faire chaque fois que je découvrirai un nouveau titre. Parallèlement, je poursuivrai mon travail de traduction qui a déjà permis la publication en français de plusieurs témoignages étrangers. En réalisant cette bibliographie, j'ai été amené à faire des choix qui, comme toutes les sélections de cette nature, peuvent être contestés. Je me suis attaché à retenir les documents d'époque en langue anglaise, au sens large du terme c’est-à-dire en prenant en compte aussi ceux qui furent publiés aux Etats-Unis, même lorsqu'il ne s'agit pas à proprement parler de témoignages, dans la mesure où ils sont le reflet de l'opinion publique d'alors. J'ai rejeté, en revanche, les études et biographies plus récentes, en dépit de leurs mérites, sauf lorsqu'elles contenaient une large part de correspondances, de documents ou de mémoires rédigés par des personnes ayant vécu à l'époque de l'Empire ou de la Restauration. Je n’ai pas fait figurer dans cette bibliographie les très nombreux mémoires français traduits en anglais, sauf lorsqu'ils avaient été d'abord publiés en Angleterre, souvent dans une version différente de celle publiée en France. En revanche, j'ai retenu les mémoires et correspondances d'étrangers, Allemands, Espagnols et Russes notamment, lorsque ces ouvrages ne sont pas disponibles, à ma connaissance, en langue française. Enfin, les textes retenus ne concernent pas tous les guerres qui se déroulèrent en Europe ; certains montrent, au contraire, que l’engagement britannique avait déjà un caractère planétaire. Tel qu'il est, et tel que j'espère encore l'améliorer dans l'avenir, je pense que ce travail sera utile à ceux qui s'intéressent à cette période si riche de notre histoire nationale. C'est le seul souhait que je formule.

  • La Política Mediterránea De Gran Bretaña Durante La Guerra Peninsular Great Britain’S Mediterranean Policy During the Peninsular War
    ARTÍCULOS Benditas banderas: nacionalismo y catolicismo en la modernidad hispanoamericana La política mediterránea de Gran Bretaña durante la Guerra Peninsular Great Britain’s Mediterranean policy during the Peninsular War Maties RAMISA Universitat de Vic RESUMEN El artículo expone cuál fue la política mediterránea de Gran Bretaña durante la Guerra de la Independencia y el lugar secundario, pero muy relevante, que tenía en la estrategia general de las guerras napoleónicas. También explica cuál fue el papel que desarrolló la isla de Sicilia como base británica desde 1806, así como el de la isla de Menorca y especialmente del puerto de Mahón desde el inicio de la contienda en España en 1808. Convertida también en base inglesa, Menorca atendía al abastecimiento y reparación de la Royal Navy y era el punto de partida de la vigilancia de la flota francesa de Tolón, así como un lugar de recreo de oficiales y marinería. Por último, la comunicación se extiende sobre las características de la intervención británica en Cataluña, tanto en el aspecto logístico como el militar, así como sobre la 119 personalidad y actuación del comodoro Codrington –que mandaba el escuadrón naval que operaba en las costas del Principado– y en la visión que los españoles y catalanes que tenían de los políticos y militares ingleses. PALABRAS CLAVE Guerra de la Independencia; Royal Navy; Menorca; Cataluña; Edward Codrington ABSTRACT The article exposes what was the Mediterranean policy of Great Britain during the War of Independence and the secondary, but very important, place it had in the general strategy in the Napoleonics wars. It explains the role of the island of Sicily as a British base since 1806, as well as that of the island of Menorca and especially that of the port of Mahon since the beginning of the war in Spain in 1808.

  • THE BRITISH ARMY in the LOW COUNTRIES, 1793-1814 By
    ‘FAIRLY OUT-GENERALLED AND DISGRACEFULLY BEATEN’: THE BRITISH ARMY IN THE LOW COUNTRIES, 1793-1814 by ANDREW ROBERT LIMM A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY.

ABSTRACT The history of the British Army in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars is generally associated with stories of British military victory and the campaigns of the Duke of Wellington. An intrinsic aspect of the historiography is the argument that, following British defeat in the Low Countries in 1795, the Army was transformed by the military reforms of His Royal Highness, Frederick Duke of York. This thesis provides a critical appraisal of the reform process with reference to the organisation, structure, ethos and learning capabilities of the British Army and evaluates the impact of the reforms upon British military performance in the Low Countries, in the period 1793 to 1814, via a series of narrative reconstructions. This thesis directly challenges the transformation argument and provides a re-evaluation of British military competency in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT In the historiography of pharmacology and therapeutics, the 18th century is regarded as a period of transition from traditional, Galenistic materia medica to the beginnings of modern, experimental drug research. Ackerknecht (1973) characterized the pharmacotherapy of this period as a "chaotic mixture of chemiatric and Galenistic practices", yet acknowledged an "increasing tendency toward empiricism, partly even true experimentalism". This thesis explores this transitional phase for the first time in depth, examining the relations between pharmacological experimentation, theory-building, and therapeutic practice. Furthermore, ethical aspects are highlighted. The general introduction discusses the secondary literature and presents the results of a systematic study of pharmacological articles in relevant 18th-century periodicals. The identified main areas of contemporary interest, the spectrum of methods applied, and the composition of the authorship are described and interpreted.

    SLAVE HOUNDS AND ABOLITION IN THE AMERICAS* Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/past/article/246/1/69/5722095 by guest on 30 September 2021 I INTRODUCTION In 1824 an anonymous Scotsman travelled through Jamaica to survey the island’s sugar plantations and social conditions. Notably, his journal describes an encounter with a formidable dog and its astonishing interaction with the enslaved. The traveller’s host, a Mr McJames, made ‘him a present of a fine bloodhound’ descended from a breed used for ‘hunting Maroons’ during Jamaica’s Second Maroon War almost three decades earlier.1 The maroons had surrendered to the British partly out of terror of these dogs, a Cuban breed that officials were promoting for use in Jamaica on account of their effectiveness in quelling black resistance.2 Unfamiliar with the breed, the traveller observed its ‘astounding ...aversion ...to the slaves’. For instance, when a young slave entered his room to wake him early one morning, the animal viciously charged the boy. The Scotsman judged that, without his intervention, the * We should like to thank Matt D.

  • Barrosa (Chiclana), March 5, 1811
    Barrosa (Chiclana), March 5, 1811 Cádiz had been invested by the French in January 1810 by a 25,000-strong French army commanded by Victor, but in March of 1811 a reduction in the besieging army gave its Anglo-Spanish garrison an opportunity to lift the siege. Their plan was to ship an expeditionary force 100 km south along the coast from Cádiz so as to launch an attack against Victor from inland. The force comprised 4,000 British under Graham, 8,000 men of two Spanish divisions led by Lardizabal and the Prince of Anglona, four squadrons of cavalry under Col. Samuel Ford Whittingham - an English officer serving with the Spanish army - 1,000 infantry from Gibraltar and 1,600 Spaniards from an irregular force led by Beguines. The overall command was given to Lapeña, the senior officer at Cádiz. After several chaotic night marches, Lapeña diverted from his original intention and decided to march by the coast road towards Cádiz. Victor prepared a trap in the plain between the town of Chiclana and Barrosa Hill (known now as the Loma de Sancti-Petri). Using one division under Villatte to block the road into Cádiz, Victor kept two divisions under Leval and Ruffin out-of-sight in readiness to make a surprise flank attack that fell on the single Anglo-Portuguese rearguard division under the command of Sir Thomas Graham. Following a fierce battle on two fronts, the British succeeded in routing the attacking French forces. Although some Spanish units also participated in the fight, Lapeña does not support his ally and thus prevented a smashing French defeat.

Sharing their husbands’ sense of duty and mission, these women transferred, adopted, and adapted national values and customs, to fashion a new imperial sociability, influencing the course of empire by cutting across and restructuring gender, class, and racial borders. Stationed at isolated stations in British India and the American West, many officers’ wives experienced homesickness and disorientation.

  • Engaging Origins, Tradition and Sovereignty Claims of Jamaican Maroon Communities
    The Work of Diaspora: Engaging Origins, Tradition and Sovereignty Claims of Jamaican Maroon Communities By Mario Nisbett A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in African American Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Percy C. Hintzen, Chair Professor Na’ilah Suad Nasir Professor Laurie A. Wilkie Summer 2015 © 2015 by Mario Nisbett All Rights Reserved Abstract The Work of Diaspora: Engaging Origins, Tradition and Sovereignty Claims of Jamaican Maroon Communities by Mario Nisbett Doctor of Philosophy in African American Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Percy C. Hintzen, Chair This dissertation examines the concept of the African Diaspora by focusing on four post-colonial Maroon communities of Jamaica, the oldest autonomous Black polities in the Caribbean, which were established by escapees from slave-holding authorities during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In exploring the Maroons as a Black community, the work looks at how they employ diaspora in making linkages to other communities of African descent and for what purposes. Maroons are being positioned in relation to the amorphous concept of diaspora, which is normally used to refer to people who have been dispersed from their place of origins but maintain tradition and connections with kin in other countries. However, I complicate the definition, arguing that diaspora, specifically the African Diaspora, is the condition that produces the collective consciousness of sameness rooted in the idea of common African origins based on a common experience of Black abjection. This understanding of diaspora opens the way to see that the uses of the concept are varied.
