There has been no entry into the French aristocracy for the formerly enslaved and their descendants. No pathway has been offered to a life of dignity, despite their labor helping to build the very foundation of France.

He wasn’t born to rule—he decided to. Seize the Crown tells the story of how a boy from Corsica rose to dominate Europe—not just with armies, but with ideas, optics, and unstoppable momentum. This isn’t a dry military chronicle or another romantic portrait. It’s a forensic breakdown of how Napoleon hacked power, reshaped law, manipulated myth, and became the blueprint for modern authoritarianism.

Over 40,000 Frenchmen were executed for holding fast to the Catholic Faith and objecting to the worst excesses of the Committee of Public Safety. The bloodlust of the time staggers the imagination, and the campaign against the Church was as diabolical as it was cruel. Carroll captures the brutality of the period, but also the action of grace in the heroism of the Church, the saintliness of her martyrs and the dramatic conversion of Danton—an erstwhile leader of the uprising who landed in a death-battle with the forces he helped put in motion.

Voici le livre de Loïc Prigent que tout le monde attendait : son histoire de la mode. Dans ce récit savant, personnel et aussi irrésistible que l'achat d'un vêtement superflu et donc indispensable, il dévoile la couture, du XIXe siècle à l'ouverture de la première boutique de Gabrielle Chanel en 1913. Des premiers grands couturiers (Worth) et des premières acheteuses stars (l'impératrice Eugénie) à l'industrie qui s'en mêle et aux débuts de la commercialisation de masse, nous découvrons les dessus et les dessous de cette folie française.

In Belle Époque Paris, the Eiffel Tower was newly built, France was experiencing remarkable political stability, and American women were painting the town and gathering at a female-only Residence known as The American Girls' Club in Paris. Opened in 1893, The Club was the center of expatriate living and of dedication to a calling in the fine arts, and singularly harbored a generation of independent, talented, and driven American women. Now in The Club, curator, art historian, and podcast host Jennifer Dasal presents the never-before-told story of the Club.

At the eve of the Second World War, an estimated 1.6 million Jewish children lived in Nazi-occupied Europe. While 10,000 of them escaped to Britain in the Kindertransport, only some 500 found a new home in France. Here they attempted to begin again—but their refuge would all too soon become a trap. For the first time, Laura Hobson Faure brings to life the experiences of these children, and the Jewish and non-Jewish organizations who helped them. Drawing on survivors' testimonies as well as children's diaries, letters, drawings, songs, and poems, Who Will Rescue Us? recreates their journeys.

As nationalism and anti-immigration rhetoric surge in France (and elsewhere), The Shortest History of France presents a portrait of a nation whose politics and society have always been shaped by global forces. Grounded in up-to-date historical scholarship that avoids the traps of national exceptionalism, Jones reminds us that it was only after the first millennium of French history that a nation-state began to emerge.

Qu’est-ce que la nation française ? La question s’est posée à de multiples reprises au fil de l’histoire, parfois de manière très vive comme lors de la Révolution, de la perte de l’Alsace-Lorraine, du régime de Vichy et jusqu’à nos fractures contemporaines. S’agit-il d’une communauté ethnique, linguistique, territoriale, d’une organisation politique de citoyens désireux de vivre ensemble ou bien encore d’une construction historique d’un autre type ? Doit-on la faire remonter à 1789, à la bataille de Bouvines, au baptême de Clovis, voire à " nos ancêtres les Gaulois " ?

De 1940 à 1944, une bande de malfrats, dirigée par Henri Lafont et Pierre Bonny – un petit escroc allié à un flic ripou – s'est mise au service de l'occupant allemand en semant la terreur et le chaos dans la capitale française. Protégée par les nazis, cette organisation criminelle est entrée dans l'histoire sous le nom de la Gestapo française de la rue Lauriston, surnommée la Carlingue. De loin la plus puissante, la plus crainte et la plus haïe des Gestapos françaises, elle était également la mieux organisée.

The captivating biography of the French aristocrat who balanced the demands of her society with passionate affairs of the heart and a brilliant life of the mind. Although today she is best known for her fifteen-year liaison with Voltaire, Gabrielle Emilie le Tonnelier de Breteuil, Marquise Du Châtelet (1706-1749) was more than a great man's mistress. After marrying a marquis at the age of eighteen, she proceeded to fulfill the prescribed-and delightfully frivolous-role of a French noblewoman of her time.

The eighteenth century was a time of cultural friction: individuals began to assert greater independence and there was a new emphasis on social equality. In this surprising history, Lynn Hunt examines women's expanding societal roles, such as using tea to facilitate conversation between the sexes in Britain. In France, women also pushed boundaries by becoming artists, and printmakers' satiric takes on the elite gave the lower classes a chance to laugh at the upper classes and imagine the potential of political upheaval.

Die Französische Revolution der späten 1790er Jahre war eines der entscheidenden Ereignisse in der Geschichte Europas. Sie war der Wendepunkt – ein historischer Erdrutsch, der die Welt in eine neue, völlig andere Epoche führte. Leider kommen solche Veränderungen immer mit einem hohen Preis. In der Folge der Revolution brach eine Reihe von großangelegten Konflikten aus, die zusammenfassend als Napoleonische Kriege bekannt sind.

Als Inspektor Belin sich anschickte, den schwer fassbaren Henri Landru wegen Veruntreuung und Betrugs festzunehmen, war er nicht auf das komplexe Netz von Geheimnissen vorbereitet, das sich auftun sollte.
