Table of ContentsReviews"""This book offers an original and intriguing look into the literature of the four-month period of the Siege (introducing some virtually unknown works to readers) as well as a novel exploration of the ways that literary institutions responded to this moment of turmoil.” Anne O'Neil-Henry, Georgetown University 'Because the book shows the power of a patriotism which reactivates references to the French Revolution, to the people in arms, the work, although written by a specialist in literature, is also extremely careful to get out of textual analysis stricto sensu to question literature as a social activity, [...] gives new life to printers, publishers, owners of newspapers and theatres, who are the actors of this moment of exceptional creativity. [...] All in all, this stimulating book reinforces the value of a multidisciplinary approach to writing in times of war.'Odile Roynette, Contemporary Territories" Author InformationColin Foss is an Associate Professor of French at Austin College (Texas, USA).
