A History of Modern France offers a framework to understand modern
French history through a survey of the dramatic events that have
punctuated its history from the eighteenth century to the present
day. Covering events such as the French Revolution, the two World
Wars and the more recent election of Emmanuel Macron and the
"yellow vest" movement, the book takes a balanced approach to the
competing interpretations of modern France inspired by its history.
This edition has been thoroughly updated to incorporate the most
recent scholarship on topics including French imperial history and
the empire's postcolonial legacy, the history of women and gender,
and the French experience of World War I. A new section extends the
narrative into mid-2019, and additional emphasis has been given to
the role of historical memory in the making of French identity.
Taking a chronological approach, the book is approachable for
students and provides a clear and understandable picture of the
history of modern France. Supported by further reading that has
been updated to include the most recent publications, the book is
the ideal introduction to the history of modern France for students
of this fascinating country.
