Sommario/riassunto

Sommario/riassunto

Cet ouvrage propose une interprétation nouvelle de l’intégration de l’Alsace au royaume de France au XVIIIe siècle. À partir de sources inédites, les auteurs analysent les modalités de ce processus. Ils posent



la question de la souveraineté du roi de France, contestée dans une province nouvellement constituée, soulignent l’importance de l’armée au détriment des populations qui freine la croissance économique, et insistent sur la volonté de francisation d’un ensemble politique, économique et culturel façonné par des siècles d’appartenance au Saint-Empire. Leur recherche renouvelle la connaissance de la monarchie française et des résistances d’une population qui garde « l’aigle gravé dans le cœur ».
