Through a study of monuments, memorials, museum collections and other 'sites of memory' in France connected with France's overseas empire this book analyzes the way in which French authorities marked the Paris and provincial landscapes with these reminders of France's colonial 'mission' during the period of imperial expansion, and the fate of these sites in the post-colonial period and what that evolution reveals about French memory and amnesia of the colonial epoch.HistoryHistory, ModernArchitectureHistoryEuropean HistoryModern HistoryHistory of FranceArchitecture, generalEuropeHistoryFranceHistoryHistory.History, Modern.Architecture.History.European History.Modern History.History of France.Architecture, general.940Aldrich Robert1954-859065BOOK9910458232103321Vestiges of the Colonial Empire in France1917483UNINA
