Book Description
Napoleon's official diplomatic career lasted nearly two decades and involved relations with scores of kings, queens, ministers, diplomats, and secret agents across Europe and beyond. All those involved asserted their respective state (and often their private) interests across the entire span of international relations in which conflicts over trade and marriage were often inseparable from war and peace. For Napoleon, war and diplomacy were inseparable and complementary for victory. Much of Napoleon's military success was built upon a foundation of alliances and treaties. Although not always at war, Napoleon incessantly practiced diplomacy on a steady stream of international issues.

The Art of Diplomacy
Author: François de Callières
Publisher: University Press of America
ISBN: 9780819187253
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
In 1716, the French diplomat and author Francois de CalliËres published the treatise "De la Maniere de negocier avec les souverainsoan outstandingly successful manual of advice for diplomats, perhaps the best of its kind ever written. It has become the classic text, highly regarded by 18th century statesmen, who considered it essential reading for prospective diplomats, and by modern historians who have praised its insights into the conventions and techniques that remained a distinctive feature of European statecraft for almost 300 years. This book is the first, complete critical edition of Callieres' work based on an accurate but virtually unknown English translation of 1716. It also includes a biographical introduction, based on French manuscript sources, which provides an account of Callieres' life as writer and diplomat, a discussion of the origin of the work and an assessment of the intellectual and historical background to which the treatise belongs. In addition, the book includes appendixes on the French political academy, Callieres' library and a list of his publications as well as those of his father, Jacques, also a notable author in his day. The volume concludes with a bibliography of works on diplomatic theory covering the period 1648 to 1815. This reprint of the 1983 edition by Leicester University Press makes available once again this historical work of enduring value.

Book Description
Excerpt from Napoleon III. And American Diplomacy at the Outbreak of the Civil War: An Address Read in French Before the Societe D'histoire Diplomatique at Paris, on the Ninth of June, 1905 After well nigh half a century it is easy to recognize the impression created abroad by the Federal Government's indecision on the eve of the Civil War. If republican institu tions had always seemed in the nature of an experiment to European statesmen, their sudden lack of stability appeared to justify every misgiving. It must be confessed that the want of real insight which so often makes nations, like individuals, misjudge each other, was not here to blame.

Excerpt from Napoleon and America: An Outline of the Relations of the United States to the Career and Downfall of Napoleon Bonaparte Mute his thoughts into deeds upon such a colos sal scale, and the United States could not avoid the influence of the scholar-soldier. France and America acted and reacted upon each other with dramatic force during the fifteen years between Marengo and Waterloo. While a mere segment of that circle of activities, which encompassed the civilized world for twenty years, is sighted in this American phase of the marvellous legend, yet it possesses historical interest in a much higher de gree than we have been accustomed to attribute. The intrinsic attraction of the subject must aid this meagre presentation to the students of Amer ica's relations to Napoleonic Europe.
