Dear Colleagues, It is with great joy that we welcome you as you convene in the hundreds from thirty-four countries and six continents to present papers on worldwide subjects in the disciplines of law, history, theology, philosophy and political science. We are happy and proud to bring together so many specialists and so amazing a richness and variety of research, and we thank you most warmly for coming sometimes from so far to share with us the result of your reflections. Around 1500, the year that marks the starting-point for our work, Europeans would have considered our event a consummate example of the sodalitates litterariæ, those large-scale, transnational communities of scholars that illustrated the humanistic ideal. ‘Monarchy & Modernity since 1500’: our conference title’s most important word is undoubtedly ‘&’. Formerly – before 1500 – in the West and elsewhere, monarchy was a political and theological obviousness. From the beginning of what historians call modern times, monarchy has come increasingly into question, even while it has itself become a reason for doubting modernity’s patent character. Across the centuries, Cambridge, the city where John Milton (Christ’s) and Robert Filmer (Trinity) were both students, has liberally fostered such common questioning. We are confident that it will once more be the site of original and stimulating reflections of the highest quality on this crucial subject. May your time here be the occasion of much learning and enjoyment as you exchange ideas with fellow scholars from all over the world.

    ROY PORTER Wellcome Library, London Roy Sydney Porter 1946–2002 I WHEN ROY PORTER DIED on 4 March 2002, he had been recognised as an original, prolific and influential historian for a considerable time. He had been preternaturally productive for about three decades; in addition to his numerous and diverse writings, he was a frequent broadcaster and public speaker. Many people knew about him, his writings and ideas far beyond the confines of academia. He was both public historian and public intel- lectual. Roy worked prodigiously and with a special kind of energy. Since he published so much, it is tempting to list his achievements and to stress the sheer volume of work he produced. But to do so would miss the defin- ing features of the man and of his legacy. In assessing his impact and pay- ing just regard to his ideas and their influence, it is necessary to grasp the drives that lay behind this extraordinary and inspiring man. In writing this memoir I have had in mind those features of his life and work that seem to me to have been most fundamental; they provide the threads that were woven into his existence. I am thinking especially of his work ethic, his dedication to his students, his energy, his attachment to his roots, his capacity to bring people together, to positively exude encouragement and to embrace the tawdry, ugly and desperate parts of humanity’s past as well as its more elegant and elevated manifestations. The broad contours of Roy Porter’s life are familiar. Born on 31 December 1946, his early days are briefly sketched, and in moving terms, in his Preface to London: a Social History (1994).

    H-France Review Volume 18 (2018) Page 1 H-France Review Vol. 18 (April 2018), No. 72 Cecil Courtney and Jenny Mander, eds., Raynal’s Histoire des deux Indes: Colonialism, Networks, and Global Exchange. Oxford: Voltaire Foundation, 2015. xii + 349 pp. Illustrations, tables, notes, summaries, bibliography, and index. £70.00 U.K. (pb). ISBN 978-0-7294-1169-1. Review by Elizabeth Cross, Florida State University. Cecil Courtney and Jenny Mander are right to observe in their introduction to this volume that the Abbé Raynal’s Histoire philosophique des deux Indes has indeed come a long way since Gustave Lanson dismissed it as an “oeuvre morte” in 1895 (p. 1). Despite the fluctuating fortunes of the text--from eighteenth-century bestseller, to nineteenth and early twentieth- century oblivion--Raynal is everywhere in eighteenth-century studies now. Work by scholars such as Yves Bénot, Sankar Muthu, and (to a lesser extent) Jennifer Pitts has placed the Histoire des deux Indes in a canon of anti-imperial Enlightenment writings.[1] The Centre international d’étude du XVIIIe siècle is currently publishing a critical edition of the text, of which half of the collaborators on this volume are on the editorial team.[2] The introduction to this book is an essential summary of the current state of the field of Raynal historiography, and it makes clear just how much scholarly work went into the reestablishment of Raynal as an omnipresent figure in studies of the French Enlightenment today. As the editors readily note, the Histoire des deux Indes is not an easily approachable text.

    War of the Fourth Coalition 1 War of the Fourth Coalition

    War of the Fourth Coalition 1 War of the Fourth Coalition The Fourth Coalition against Napoleon's French Empire was defeated in a war spanning 1806–1807. Coalition partners included Prussia, Russia, Saxony, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. Many members of the coalition had previously been fighting France as part of the Third Coalition, and there was no intervening period of general peace. In 1806, Prussia joined a renewed coalition, fearing the rise in French power after the defeat of Austria and establishment of the French-sponsored Confederation of the Rhine. Prussia and Russia mobilized for a fresh campaign, and Prussian troops massed in Saxony. Overview Napoleon decisively defeated the Prussians in a lightning campaign that culminated at the Battle of Jena-Auerstedt on 14 October 1806. French forces under Napoleon occupied Prussia, pursued the remnants of the shattered Prussian Army, and captured Berlin on October 25, 1806. They then advanced all the way to East Prussia, Poland and the Russian frontier, where they fought an inconclusive battle against the Russians at Eylau on 7–8 February 1807. Napoleon's advance on the Russian frontier was briefly checked during the spring as he revitalized his army. Russian forces were finally crushed by the French at Friedland on June 14, 1807, and three days later Russia asked for a truce. By the Treaties of Tilsit in July 1807, France made peace with Russia, which agreed to join the Continental System. The treaty however, was particularly harsh on Prussia as Napoleon demanded much of Prussia's territory along the lower Rhine west of the Elbe, and in what was part of the former Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth.

    The Peace Treaty of Fredrikshamn and Its Aftermath in Sweden and Finland to Some Extent, the Chronological Manifestation of the Consequences

    The Peace Treaty of Fredrikshamn and its Petri Karonen Aftermath in Sweden and Finland By the end of 2009, in both Finland and Sweden the bicentennial commemora- tion of the dissolution of the common realm was drawing to a close. At the same time, what was being celebrated was the birth of an autonomous Finland. These commemorations have offered a rare occasion to explicate the annexation of Fin- land into the Russian Empire and the issues involved in it. Rather less to the fore has been the union of Sweden and Norway, which was also a consequence of the Finnish War of 1808–1809, at least when seen in a pan-European context.1 In what follows, I shall concentrate on analyzing the Peace Treaty of Fredriks- hamn of September 1809 and its consequences. Thus I will not deal with the Finnish War as such. It is widely accepted that the war in Finland was one of the side effects of the French Revolution and the chain of European-wide unrest and revolutionary upheaval that followed in its wake. We also know that relations between Sweden and Russia were relatively good at the turn of the nineteenth century, and indeed again soon after 1809. All these factors have a bearing on the Peace Treaty of Fredrikshamn. The war continued in Norrbotten and Västerbotten in the spring and summer of 1809, after Finland had been occupied by the Russian forces in the autumn of 1808. The Swedish defence was not made any easier by the fact that the com- manders of the main Swedish forces left their units to join the heated political game that was being played out in Stockholm, the consequence of which being Gustavus IV Adolphus’ deposition in March 1809.
