- 摘要註: The Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars have been described as the first b1stotal warb2s, which affected millions of people's lives and brought a whole continent into contact with armies and bloodshed. But the extent to which the constant state of war that existed between 1792 and 1815 shaped everyday experience has been much less studied, even although these wars, conducted by mass armies and often mobilized by patriotism, led to the circulation of millions of people throughout Europe and beyond. The changing nature of warfare had far-reaching consequencesfor civil society as well asfor those directly engaged in fighting. This volume of essays by international scholars examines the formative experiences of men and women - soldiers, citizens and civilians - in theyears 1792-1815,drawing particularly on their personal documents and social and cultural practices, to offer a perspective on the wars whichis at some distance from broader and more familiar historical narratives.
