It began on Saint-Domingue, the richest colony in the Western Hemisphere, where he witnessed first-hand the torture of the enslaved population. Yet he managed to earn his freedom and establish himself as a small-scale planter. He even purchased slaves of his own. In Toussaint Louverture, Philippe Girard tells the incredible tale of how Louverture transformed himself from lowly freedman to revolutionary hero. Working as a coachman for his wealthy, white owners, Louverture traveled across Saint-Domingue, building a network among slaves and free blacks that would form the basis of the slave revolt he engineered in 1791. What followed was a decade of unprecedented bloodletting: about 200,000 people in the colony of Saint-Domingue were killed in battle or murdered. By 1801, Louverture was general and governor of the colony, now called Haiti. But his lifelong quest to be accepted as a member of the French colonial elite ended in despair: in 1802, on Napoleon's orders, he was exiled to France, where he spent the last year of his life in a prison cell. Ten years in the making, Toussaint Louverture is based on extensive archival research in France, Britain, Spain, the United States, and the Caribbean. The book contains many revelations about Louverture's life, from a previously unknown first marriage to the circumstances of his manumission, his exact role in the outbreak of the 1791 Haitian slave revolt, his actions as governor of France's richest colony, and the tragic nature of his death."--Provided by publisher. 606 $aRevolutionaries$zHaiti$vBiography 606 $aGenerals$zHaiti$vBiography 607 $aHaiti$xHistory$yRevolution, 1791-1804$vBiography 615 0$aRevolutionaries 615 0$aGenerals 676 $a972.94/03092 676 $aB 700 $aGirard$b Philippe R.$01246560 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910163944903321 996 $aToussaint Louverture$92890276 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05873nam 22007215 450 001 9910377835103321 005 20230810170030.0 010 $a9783030360405 010 $a3030360407 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-030-36040-5 035 $a(CKB)4100000010348992 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6038865 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-030-36040-5 035 $a(PPN)252910702 035 $a(Perlego)3480364 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000010348992 100 $a20200205d2020 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aDiffusion in Franco-German Relations $eA Different Perspective on a History of Cooperation and Conflict /$fby Eric Sangar 205 $a1st ed. 2020. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2020. 215 $a1 online resource (249 pages) 225 1 $aStudies in Diplomacy and International Relations,$x2731-393X 300 $aIncludes index. 311 08$a9783030360399 311 08$a3030360393 327 $a1 Introduction -- 2 The mainstream narrative of Franco-German relations and the value of 'diffusion' as a complementary analytical framework -- 3 Exporting revolutionary institutions across the Rhine -- 4 Importing 'alien' or 'enlightened' law?

There were fans of the other country's values on both sides. This study puts key episodes of this exchange inter-cultural exchange under the scientific microscope, drained of blood and passion, picking them apart with the clinical instruments of the social scientist. It is history made accessible to the sociologist and the anthropologist." -Beatrice Heuser, Professor of International Relations at the University of Glasgow, UK This book analyses and compares instances of the diffusion of political norms and ideas in the history of Franco-German relations. While this relationship is often described as a history evolving from enmity over reconciliation to friendship, the book uses the concept of diffusion as a complementary analytical perspective to emphasize how political norms and ideas originating in one society have influenced the other, especially in periods of intergovernmental conflict. Established in International Relations to explain transnational normative change in contemporary contexts, the framework of diffusion is heuristically useful to explore how various types of actors have contributed, using analytically different mechanisms, to normative change across the Rhine. The book presents eight case studies featuring various contents and mechanisms of ideational diffusion taken from three contexts of Franco-German history, including the French Revolution, the Franco-Prussian War, and Franco-German rapprochement after 1945. Arguing that phenomena that are often seen as genuinely 'national' evolutions, such as German nationalism or the French system of primary education, cannot be understood without taking into account the reception and emulation of norms from across the Rhine, the book should help students and scholars to overcome the limits of methodological nationalism when studying bilateral relationships, in the Franco-German context and elsewhere.
