This book explores imperial entanglements to reassess the
Napoleonic Empire as a missing link-or at least an important
chain-in the global and longue duree history of Empires. In recent
years Napoleonic studies have, belatedly but resolutely, embraced
the transnational historiographical turn, vastly expanding the
field's geographical scope. Its canonical chronological boundaries,
on the other hand, appear increasingly narrow against this wider
backdrop, giving the impression of a parenthetical, almost
anachronistic aside from 1799 to 1815. What connects, and what
doesn't connect, the Napoleonic Empire to the Age of Empire,
remains by and large an open question. Put another way, this book
attempts to locate the Napoleonic empire in World History.
