Résumé
"Bonaparte et les Républiques Italiennes (1796-1799)" by Paul Gaffarel is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book examines the dramatic transformation of Italy during the Napoleonic campaigns, highlighting the various political energies and struggles faced by the Italian states of that era. Central to this narrative is Napoleon Bonaparte, whose military conquests not only defeated the existing powers but also initiated a series of short-lived republics in Italy. At the start of the book, Gaffarel sets the scene for the Italian landscape in the late 18th century, dominated by Austrian influence and characterized by a burgeoning nationalist sentiment among Italians. The opening chapters detail the emergence of the Cisalpine Republic, marking the initial triumphs and subsequent disappointments of the Italian patriots as they navigate their newly acquired freedoms amid the realities of foreign domination. Gaffarel introduces key figures from various social classes reacting to both the French occupation and the changes it brings, capturing a sense of hope intertwined with the harsh reality of lives subject to war and exploitation.
