520 | _aThis special thematic bibliography (comprising more than 350 works in French, English and German) traces two hundred years of publishing and historiography related to the first four months of 1814 in France. The allied invasion of French territory and the collapse of the regime stimulated a great deal of editorial activity. Contemporaries wrote memoirs, eye-witness accounts, and political pamphlets as they attempted to make sense of or justify this major European political upset, which only months earlier would have been seen as inconceivable. Histories of the time (including descriptions of the military encounters) were written using not only these publications but also unpublished archival documents.The title most frequently used to describe this period is “The French Campaign” (with campaign in the singular) in that the majority of French historians have concentrated on the battles in north-east France where emperor Napoleon I was present. It would however be more accurate to speak of campaigns (plural), given the French military encounters at the time with European allied troops also in the Pyrenees, the Alps and in Belgium, although these affairs have not received as much attention. | ||
