Story2
After Prussia was victorious in the Austro-Prussian War, Bismarck played a waiting game where the unification of Germany was concerned, as the joining of the southern states - initially resistant to Prussian rule, friendly with Austria, and bent on independence - would have to be overcome. What was needed was “a clear case of French aggression” toward either Prussia or the southern states. Not only would such a move by Emperor Napoleon III trigger the terms of the treaty between the German states, but it would keep the remaining world powers out of the conflict.

Longtemps sous-estimé par les historiens qui se représentaient le roi de France comme un monarque absolutiste dépassé par les événements et incapable d’en prendre la mesure, Louis XVI est présenté par Aurore Chéry comme un monarque adepte des idées républicaines et déterminé lui aussi à mener une lutte contre l’aristocratie. Au fil de la thèse novatrice de l’historienne, nous découvrons un Louis XVI proche des idées des patriotes américains, désireux de se détacher de l’influence de la cour et, en cela, projeté dans notre modernité politique.

Between 1796 and 1815, the continent of Europe was held in thrall by one of the most remarkable personalities of modern times, a man whose name was on the lips of every man, woman, and child: Napoleon Bonaparte. Certainly, one would have to go back to the time of Charlemagne to find his equal on the field of battle, in the halls of diplomacy, or in the courts of jurisprudence.

Im Jahr 1861 drang die Polizei eines französischen Dorfes in das Haus von Martin Dumollard im Wald ein. In seinem Innern herrschte das Chaos, in dem man sich Wege durch Berge von blutverschmierten Kleidungsstücken, die an manchen Stellen bis zur Decke reichten, bahnen musste. Die Beamten gingen davon aus, dass der mysteriöse Dienstmädchenräuber eine Frau getötet hatte, bei seinen anderen Versuchen jedoch gescheitert war. Doch nun wurde immer deutlicher, dass zwischen den Verbrechen, von denen sie wussten, und denen, die wirklich begangen wurden, eine enorme Kluft bestand.

Throughout history, a countless number of historical figures have had their lives overshadowed by the myths and legends that surround them to the extent that their legacy comes to define them. In French history, this is truer of Marie Antoinette than just about everyone else. Nearly 220 years after she was put to the guillotine, Marie Antoinette is more famous than ever, fairly or unfairly coming to epitomize royalty and everything that was wrong with it.

When the leaders of the French Revolution executed Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette in 1793, they sent a chilling message to the hereditary ruling orders in Europe. Believing that monarchy anywhere presented a threat to democratic rule in France, the leaders of the revolution declared war on European aristocracies, including those of Great Britain. For more than 20 years thereafter, France and England waged a protracted war that ended in British victory.

Philippe Pétain est un sujet historique qui dépasse le personnage. Jean-Yves Le Naour, historien en spécialiste de la Première Guerre mondiale et du XXe siècle, nous présente ici la biographie du maréchal Pétain mais aussi une histoire du pétainisme. L’historien se penche sur le mythe Pétain forgé durant la Première Guerre mondiale, en tant que vainqueur de Verdun, l’enracinement du mythe durant l’Entre-deux guerres, pour aboutir au chef de l’État vénéré sous Vichy, de 1940 à 1944, quand le maréchal se pose en protecteur des Français tout en collaborant activement avec l’occupant.

Qu’est-ce que la nation française ? La question s’est posée à de multiples reprises au fil de l’histoire, parfois de manière très vive comme lors de la Révolution, de la perte de l’Alsace-Lorraine, du régime de Vichy et jusqu’à nos fractures contemporaines. S’agit-il d’une communauté ethnique, linguistique, territoriale, d’une organisation politique de citoyens désireux de vivre ensemble ou bien encore d’une construction historique d’un autre type ? Doit-on la faire remonter à 1789, à la bataille de Bouvines, au baptême de Clovis, voire à " nos ancêtres les Gaulois " ?

"Das Bild der Kathedrale Notre Dame in Flammen ergriff und schockierte mich zutiefst. Ein Vermächtnis von unschätzbarem Wert lag vor unseren Augen im Sterben. Es war beängstigend und ich hatte das Gefühl, der Boden unter unseren Füßen hätte begonnen zu beben." So äußert sich der große Schriftsteller nach dem tragischen Brand, der die Kathedrale Notre-Dame am Abend des 15. April 2019 verwüstet hat. In seinem berühmtesten Roman, Die Säulen der Erde, beschrieb Ken Follett ausführlich die Verbrennung der Kingsbridge-Cathedral fast wie eine Vorahnung dessen, was in Paris geschehen ist.
