Overview
The years between 1830 and 1852 were turbulent ones in French politics – but were also a golden age for French political caricature. Caricature was wielded as a political weapon, so much so that in 1835 the French politician Adolphe Thiers claimed that ‘nothing was more dangerous’ than graphic satire. This book is the first full study of French political caricature during the critical years of the July Monarchy (1830–48) and the Second Republic (1848–52). Focusing on the crucial question of republicanism, it shows how caricature was used – by both republicans and anti-republicans – to discuss, define and articulate notions of republican identity during this highly significant period in modern French and European history.
