Florestan. de l'Esprit de Conquete Et de l'Usurpation. Reflexions Sur Les Constitutions (1813-1814)

Jean-Daniel Candaux,C P Courtney,Alain DuBois

The 8th volume in this edition contains the works written by Benjamin Constant between March 1813 and April 1814. The texts are different in nature. Alongside a work of fiction, Florestan or the Siege of Soissons , the reader will find The Spirit of Conquest and Usurpation (the publication that did most to cement Constant’s reputation as a political author), various propagandistic writings penned in the service of the Prince-Royal of Sweden, and finally Reflections on Constitutions and Guarantees , a work of political theory. All these texts are precursors of the works from the period of the First Restoration and the Cent-Jours assembled in Volume 9, so that these two volumes are closely interrelated.
