Volume III of the Cambridge History of the Napoleonic Wars moves
away from the battlefield to explore broader questions of society
and culture. Leading scholars from around the globe show how the
conflict left its mark on virtually every aspect of society. They
reflect on the experience of the soldiers who fought in them,
examining such matters as military morale, ideas of honour and
masculinity, the treatment of wounds and the fate of
prisoners-of-war; and they explore social issues such as the role
of civilians, women's experience, trans-border encounters and the
roots of armed resistance. They also demonstrates how the
experience of war was inextricably linked to empire and the wider
world. Individual chapters discuss the depiction of the Wars in
literature and the arts and their lasting impact on European
culture. The volume concludes by examining the memory of the Wars
and their legacy for the nineteenth-century world.
