Crossing traditional chronological boundaries, it brings together periods in French history that are usually treated separately and challenges established views of change and continuity during the Age of Revolution. Based on a wealth of archival sources, this book is as much a social history of ideas like equality, talent, and merit as a military history. 606 $aHISTORY / Social History 606 $aHISTORY / Military / Wars & Conflicts (Other) 606 $aHISTORY / Europe / France 610 $aDirectorial regime. 610 $aFrench army. 610 $aNapoleonic policies. 610 $aOld Regime concept. 610 $aThermidoreans. 610 $amilitary professionalism. 610 $aofficer corps. 610 $arepublican rule. 610 $arevolutionary meritocracy. 610 $arevolutionary military reforms. 615 0$aHISTORY / Social History. 615 0$aHISTORY / Military / Wars & Conflicts (Other) 615 0$aHISTORY / Europe / France. 676 $a355.3094409033 700 $aRafe Blaufarb$01723416 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910827942503321 996 $aThe French army 1750-1820$94124639 997 $aUNINA
