Days of Glory?: Imaging Military Recruitment and the French Revolution - War, Culture and Society, 1750–1850
Valerie Mainz
This book examines a range of visual images of military recruitment to explore changing notions of glory, or of gloire, during the French Revolution. This military song, later adopted as the national anthem, represents a deceptively unifying moment of collective engagement in the making of the modern French nation.
