"This richly detailed and entertaining work is distinguished by its acute sense of the connections between songs about Napoleon and the wider debates about the character of political controversy during his rise to and fall from power. It demonstrates that taking 'ephemera' seriously can transform our understanding of the period." - Mark Philp, University of Warwick, UK
"In a series of richly textured readings, Oskar Cox Jensen shows how central popular songs were to the formation of British identity and opinion during the period of the revolutionary and Napoleonic wars. The critical implications of this brilliant, multi-layered study will resonate with scholars for years to come." - Philip Shaw, University of Leicester, UK
"This is a brilliant book, impressively researched, and argued with great clarity. It uses the evidence of song to challenge some previously unquestioned accounts of the supposed popular hostility towards France and Napoleon, at the same time as it shows that popular song in general was neither loyalist nor radical." - John Barrell, Queen Mary, University of London, UK
“Napoleon and British Song, 1797–1822 is an excellent study that brings fresh insights to our understanding of both the political and cultural histories of this period. It demonstrates that a nuanced reading of the era’s popular song is highly rewarding, and its critical approach should serve as a model for scholars working with any ephemera of any kind.” (Erica Buurman, The BARS Review, Issue 48, Autumn, 2016)

Buchbeschreibung Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This study offers a radical reassessment of a crucial period of political and cultural history. By looking at some 400 songs, many of which are made available to hear, and at their writers, singers, and audiences, it questions both our relationship with song, and ordinary Britons' relationship with Napoleon, the war, and the idea of Britain itself.
