About the lecture

In this module, we consider the social and political impact of the French Revolutionary Wars (1792-1802) and Napoleonic Wars (1814-15), which led to the formation of the Quadruple Alliance between Britain, Russia, Austria and Prussia, and the signing of the Treaty of Chaumont on 9 March 1814.

About the lecturer

Dr Michael Rapport is a Reader in Modern European History at the University of Glasgow. His research interests include, firstly, the French Revolution (both within France and in pursuit of its wider geographical impact), secondly, the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars and, thirdly, the ‘domino’ revolutions, meaning such revolutionary waves as those of 1848 in Europe.

Michael was born in New York, but studied History at the University of Edinburgh, undertook his PhD thesis on the French Revolution at the University of Bristol (under the supervision of Professor William Doyle) and, after a short spell at the University of Sunderland, taught at the University of Stirling for seventeen years before joining the School of Humanities at Glasgow in February 2013.
