1. La France Du Xi Xe Siècle. 1814 1914
A concise synthesis of France’s “long nineteenth century,” from the Restoration to the eve of World War I, charting successive regime changes (Restoration, July Monarchy, Second Republic, Second Empire, early Third Republic), cycles of revolution and repression, and the consolidation of the nation-state and republican institutions. It examines industrialization, urbanization, social and regional transformations, the rural world and labor movements, church–state relations and secularization, colonial expansion, and cultural life, showing how continuities and ruptures shaped modern France.
