Eueste .isure furono poi for.al.ente sanzionate dall’atto di abdicazione agli stati di terrafer.a fir.ato il 9 dice.bre dal re Carlo E.anuele IV. Assunto il co.ando .ilitare del Pie.onte, il 13 dice.bre il generale Grouchy no.inF un governo provvisorio della CNazione pie.onteseD, presso il Guale il direttorio francese era rappresentato del co..issario Ange-Marie Ey.ar per gli affari civili e dallo stesso Grouchy per Guelli .ilitari. A carattere collegiale, il governo era co.posto da 17 e poi 27 .e.bri, ed articolato in 7 co.itati, incluso uno di Crelazioni estere e guerraD. Euest’i.plicita rivendicazione di sovranit0 era perF contraddetta dalla .ancanza di una designazione ufficiale dell’entit0 territoriale costituita dagli e:-stati di Terrafer.a sabaudi Cal di Gua delle AlpiD. Indicati infor.al.ente co.e Hridanie, R#publiGue pi#.ontaise, R#publiGue subalpine, Gaule subalpine, erano appetiti tanto dalla Repubblica Cisalpina che dalla Ligure, tra loro rivali, .entre la 4rancia andava coi piedi di pio.bo, perch# l’estensione delle leggi e dei diritti francesi avrebbe fatal.ente ristretto le possibilit0 di sfrutta.ento bellico delle risorse pie.ontesi. Il 21 dice.bre Talleyrand incaricF Ey.ar di rassicurare i pie.ontesi che la 4rancia non aveva alcuna intenzione di annettere il Pie.onte, e nel febbraio 1799 il direttorio congelF il voto solenne delle .agistrature pie.ontesi per la I riunione J del Pie.onte alla 4rancia i.posto dalla fazione annessionista capeggiata dal diplo.atico Carlo (ossi di Sant’Agata. A Torino fu perF inviato un co..issario civile di governo (Joseph-Mathurin Musset , incaricato di riordinare l’a..inistrazione sul .odello francese. Insediatosi il 2 aprile, 10 27eme e 28eme Division Militaire Musset ri.ase in carica appena un .ese, perch# il 3 .aggio il Pie.onte fu sottoposto ad un governo .ilitare (un’Ca..inistrazione generaleD alle dipendenze del generale in capo , che durF ancora .eno e fu spazzato via dalle truppe austro-russe. Restaurazione monarchica o autonomia repubblicana? I francesi tornarono tredici .esi dopo valicando le Alpi e subito dopo la vittoria di Marengo (onaparte espresse al cardinale Martiniano, arcivescovo di Vercelli, la sua intenzione di ristabilire la .onarchia in Pie.onte. Il prelato spedK i..ediata.ente a Ro.a il nipote, conte Alciati, a parlarne col re. Carlo E.anuele IV accolse con diffidenza Guelle assicurazioni verbali, rispondendo di non poter aprire un negoziato separato senza il preventivo assenso dei suoi alleati. In realt0 il trattato di Marengo del 18 giugno aveva ri.esso il Pie.onte con tutte le sue fortezze all’Ar.#e de Reserve, la Guale era entrata a Torino il 27. Lo stesso giorno il co.andante in capo dell’Ar.ata, generale (erthier, aveva no.inato .inistro straordinario del governo francese a Torino il suo capo di stato .aggiore, generale Pierre Antoine Dupont de L’Etang (1787-1840 , con il co.pito di vegliare agli interessi della Repubblica e riscuotere le contribuzioni. A Dupont era stata inoltre attribuita la presidenza di una co..issione di governo di sette .e.bri (conti Cavalli e Avogadro, giudice (ottone di Castella.onte, canonico (audisson, avvocati Rocci, Galli e (rayda . Titolare del potere esecutivo e insediata a Palazzo Chiablese, la co..issione era do.inata dalla forte personalit0 del conte Giuseppe Cavalli d’Olivola, entrato nelle grazie di (onaparte per averlo acco.pagnato al passaggio del San (ernardo e capofila dal partito autono.ista, che i suoi avversari annessionisti e filofrancesi bollavano co.e C.oderatistaD. (erthier aveva no.inato inoltre una consulta legislativa di 30 .e.bri, articolata in 7 co.itati, inclusi Guelli di pubblica sicurezza e guerra. 4u la consulta, con legge 8 luglio, a istituire la coccarda nazionale pie.ontese, adottando il tricolore rosso, turchino e arancione scelto nell’aprile 1798 dall’effi.era Repubblica di Alba. In luglio il Pie.onte tornF nella giurisdizione dell’Arm e d’Italie, co.andata da Mass#na. Il generale nizzardo, fa.oso non soltanto per le sue eccellenti capacit0 .ilitari .a anche per la sua particolare avidit0 di denaro, provocF un secondo conflitto con i subordinati dopo Guello che nel febbraio 1798 gli era costato il co.ando del Corps d’Arm e de Rome. Si ostinF infatti a pretendere dal Pie.onte un contributo .ilitare di 1 .ilione e .ezzo di lire, bench#, esaurita da otto anni di guerra, la rendita pie.ontese fosse precipitata a soli 18 .ilioni e Dupont gli avesse 11 27eme e 28eme Division Militaire assicurato di non potergli fornire piL di 700.000 lire. Nel .e.oriale del 18 luglio 1799 da Gr#noble, l’avvocato giacobino Angelo Pico aveva calcolato che solo nei pri.i cinGue .esi dell’anno il Pie.onte aveva fornito alla 4rancia 43 .ilioni, senza contare le spese fatte ad aprile da Musset n# Cles ve:ations partielles et les concussions des agens subalternesD. Lo stesso Talleyrand riconobbe che le condizioni econo.iche del Pie.onte non consentivano uno sforzo .aggioreM del resto oltre un Guarto degli 80.000 torinesi era a carico della pubblica beneficienza. Co.unGue il pubblico contrasto tra i due generali costF il posto ad entra.bi. Il 13 agosto Mass#na fu infatti sostituito da (rune, che, sciolta l’Ar.ata di riserva, assunse il co.ando in capo di Guella d’Italia. Due giorni dopo anche Dupont - che i pie.ontesi consideravano non .eno rapace di Mass#na - fu sostituito dal generale Jean (aptiste Jourdan (1782-1833 , inviato da Parigi. Jourdan, sopranno.inato la vierge d’Italie, era considerato il piL onesto dei generali francesiM nondi.eno la sua attivit0 di governo fu larga.ente inGuinata dai .aneggi e dalle clientele della sua a.ante torinese. L’amputazione del Novarese (7 settembre 1800) Ri.asto a Livorno, durante l’estate il duca d’Aosta pensava ancora di poter contare sul sostegno inglese ed austriaco per raccogliere truppe in Toscana e tornare alla situazione del 1797, .agari guadagnando i feudi i.periali e Savona. Ma intanto, senza neppure infor.arne preventiva.ente la co..issione di governo, il 7 sette.bre il pri.o console, su suggeri.ento del .inistro delle finanze Prina, decretF il trasferi.ento del diparti.ento dell’Agogna (Novarese, Valsesia, Ossola, Laghi d’Orta e Maggiore dal governo del Pie.onte a Guello della Cisalpina. Il re di Sardegna lo interpretF co.e un indizio favorevole, ritenendo che (onaparte, proprio in vista della prossi.a restituzione del resto del Pie.onte alla dinastia sabauda, si preoccupasse di garantire gli interessi econo.ici e di sicurezza della Cisalpina portandone il confine alla Sesia. A Torino, invece, la .odifica dei confini fu un duro colpo non soltanto per gli autono.isti, .a anche per i loro avversari annessionisti, perch# eli.inava la dipendenza econo.ica di Milano da Torino e di conseguenza anche l’ege.onia italiana che i circoli filofrancesi speravano di poter esercitare una volta divenuti cittadini della superpotenza.

  • To the Ombrone-Orcia Valley
    CHAPTER IV ............... To the Ombrone-Orcia Valley r\.T noon on n June Fifth Army pursued the Germans northwestward with two fresh command groups directing operations. IV Corps was on the left and the FEC on the right after completion of their relief of VI Corps and II Corps respectively. Comparatively fresh troops were available for the continuance of the chase, especially in the French zone where the two FEC divisions initially committed, the 1st Motor­ ized Division and the 3d Algerian Infantry Division, had been out of heavy com­ bat nearly two weeks. Only one American division, the 36th, was in action on the IV Corps side. It had been following behind the swift advance of Combat Command A of the 1st Armored Division north of Rome. Although its men had been con­ stantly on the move since passing Rome, it had not been engaged in any extensive righting, its action behind the armor having been confined largely to mopping up operations. The 361st Regimental Combat Team was attached, giving the 36th Di­ vision four regimental combat teams. The 34th Division was resting in the vicinity of Tarquinia, where it had moved from Civitavecchia to make way for supply depots being set up near the port. The 1st Armored Division was rehabilitating near Bracciano, and the other two French divisions, the 26. Moroccan Infantry Division and the 4th Mountain Division, were in FEC reserve. The 85th and 88th Divisions were en route to rest areas south and west of Rome. Other American and British divisions around Rome were in the process of leaving Fifth Army.

  • Documents from the Archive of Scuola Normale Superiore Presented By
    Exposition - documents from the archive of Scuola Normale Superiore Presented by: Alberto Lusiani - Physics researcher at SNS Maddalena Taglioli - Head archivist at SNS Chiara Visentin – SNS Student, Virtual Immersion in Science Scuola Normale Superiore of Pisa was formally founded in 1810, by a Napoleonic decree which dealt with “places of public instruction” in Tuscany, part of the French empire since 1807 and referred to as the departments of Arno, Ombrone and Mediterraneo in the terminology used in revolutionary France at that time. Scuola Normale was to be a subsidiary of École Normale Supérieure of Paris, granting 25 publicly funded places, for students in the humanities and sciences. Scuola Normale began operating in 1813 and only for one year, as in April 1814 Napoleon was forced to abdicate. “Normale” refers to the mission of the school, which was to train middle and high school teachers able to convey “norms” in a context where training teachers was connected to “forming” citizens loyal to the laws and the emperor. Scuola Normale and École Normale did not initially have the denomination “Superiore / Supérieure”. In France, after the institution of the “Écoles Normales primaries” in 1845, the School was denominated “École Normale Supérieure”. In 1846, the grand duke of Tuscany, Leopold III, established the “Scuola Normale Toscana”, also called the “ Scuola Normale of the Imperial Reign” - as it was then connected to the “Theoretical and Practical” Austro-Hungarian system – designed “to train teachers and masters for secondary schools”. After the Italian unifcation, the “Scuola Normale of the Kingdom of Italy” was formally established in 1862.

  • Départements Conquis Et Provinces Illyriennes » 1 1792 – 1815
    « Départements Conquis et Provinces Illyriennes » 1 1792 – 1815 Source E.H. de BEAUFOND– Carte Départements Français 1812 (1957) modifiée Le 11 novembre 1789, la Constituante adopte le découpage du territoire français en 83 départements dont la nomenclature est basée sur des critères géographiques ou hydrographiques. Le 31 décembre 1791, les marques postales à numéro remplacent celles de l’ancien régime. A son apogée (1812) le territoire français comportera 134 départements. La loi du 28 Pluviôse An VIII (17 février 1800) donne le nouveau cadre institutionnel des départements qui subsistera jusqu’à la loi de décentralisation de 1982 sans grands changements et le pouvoir administratif est confié aux Préfets (loi du 17 février 1800). Les Départements Conquis seront organisés exactement comme le reste du territoire au fur et à mesure de leur création. Leur numérotation suit la chronologie de leur création à l’exception des départements récupérant les numéros de départements supprimés ou réorganisés. Les 50 départements conquis ont vu le jour suite aux victoires des armées françaises sur 6 coalitions qui se sont succédées de 1792 à 1813 impliquant la quasi-totalité des pays européens. Les « Provinces Illyriennes » sont les territoires occupés et gouvernés par la France (1809 - 1814). Le 20 novembre 1815, le Traité de Paris signifie la fin des hostilités et ramène la France à 86 départements. Les tarifs postaux appliqués sont ceux du territoire français.

  • 4711, Le Saviez Vous
    Le saviez-vous ? Pour l’administration du territoire national, la Révolution a créé les départements à la place des provinces. Ils furent identifiés par des noms en rapport avec la topographie de leur situation géographique et le plus souvent, par le nom des fleuves ou rivières qui les traversent. Pour ces derniers, il existe une particularité : le département du Var. À l’origine, ce fleuve côtier traversait le département du même nom et lui donnait son appellation. Aujourd’hui, il s’écoule entièrement dans le département des Alpes-Maritimes et plus du tout dans celui du Var. Que s’était-il donc passé ? En1860 lors du rattachement de la Savoie et du Comté de Nice à la France, on se rendit compte que le territoire du Comté était tout petit et que pour en faire un département, il fallait étoffer sa surface. Pour cela, on reprit au nord une partie du département des Basses-Alpes et à l’ouest une partie du département du Var qui était contigu et cette partie comprenait la totalité du cours du fleuve Var. Le département du Var a perdu son cours d’eau mais a gardé son nom. Par ailleurs, certains départements qui comportaient un nom dévalorisant aux yeux de leur population changèrent d’appellation : Seine-Inférieure qui devint Seine-Maritime, de même pour la Loire-Inférieure qui devint Loire-Atlantique, pour les Basses-Alpes qui devinrent Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, pour les Basses- Pyrénées qui devinrent Pyrénées-Atlantiques, etc. Pour les départements qualifiés de « Haut de quelque chose » : Haute-Saône, Hautes-Pyrénées, Haute-Garonne, etc.

  • Bb8. Justices De Paix. an Xi-1925
    « État sommaire des versements faits aux Archives nationales par les ministères… » (version de 1955) BB8. JUSTICES DE PAIX. AN XI-1925. La sous-série BB8 est composée des dossiers et documents qui concernent les juges de paix, leurs suppléants et leurs greffiers. Elle est, parmi les sous-séries de BB, l'une des plus homogènes : 1386 liasses s'étendent à peu près sans interruption depuis l'an XI jusqu'à 1878. Puis, deux versements effectués en janvier 1938 et en décembre 1943-janvier 1944 ont fait entrer aux Archives nationales les dossiers des années 1895(1) à 1925 (BB8 1391 à 2185(2)). (1) Les dossiers de juges de paix pour les années 1879 à 1894 ont été détruits au Ministère de la Justice. (2) Trois liasses concernant les justices de paix et le personnel de 1849 à 1905 et provenant du versement d'avril-mai 1941, ont été cotées BB8 2186 à 2188. Electifs depuis la loi du 24 août 1790 qui les a créés, les juges de paix, à partir du sénatus- consulte du 16 thermidor an x, furent nommés par le Chef du Gouvernement pour une période de dix années. Ils étaient choisis sur une liste de deux candidats présentés par le Ministre de la Justice. Ce régime dura jusqu'à la Charte de 1814 qui changea le mode de nomination de ces magistrats : il furent, depuis lors, nommés non plus pour dix ans mais pour une durée illimitée et sans condition de candidature. On distingue, dans la sous-série BB8, deux parties correspondant, l'une au régime de la nomination pour dix années, l'autre à celui de la nomination pour une durée illimitée.
