In identifying loss and nostalgia as key tropes in cultural representations, these essays call for a re-evaluation of French colonialism as a discourse informed not just by narratives of conquest, but equally by its histories of defeat. 410 0$aAfter the empire. 606 $aCollective memory$zFrance 606 $aDecolonization$xSocial aspects$zFrance 606 $aImperialism$xSocial aspects$zFrance 606 $aPostcolonialism$xSocial aspects$zFrance 607 $aFrance$xColonies$xHistory 615 0$aCollective memory 615 0$aDecolonization$xSocial aspects 615 0$aImperialism$xSocial aspects 615 0$aPostcolonialism$xSocial aspects 676 $a325/.344 701 $aFrith$b Nicola$f1974-$01499783 701 $aMarsh$b Kate$f1974-2019.$01499784 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779339203321 996 $aFrance's lost empires$93726147 997 $aUNINA
