In this final episode, the historian returns to his favorite period, focusing on the concept of the nation in the 19th century. What are the elements of continuity in the national phenomenon between the 18th and 19th centuries? Is there a link between absolutism and the nation? What does the revolutionary motto "The law, the king, the nation" mean? How did the concept of the nation evolve in the 19th century? How did the Third Republic build the republican nation? What was the role of the national novel in nation building? Guest: Specialist in the Second Empire, Éric Anceau is a professor of political and social history of contemporary France and Europe at the University of Lorraine. The author of numerous books, he published a History of the French Nation with Tallandier and has just edited a New History of France (Passés Composés, 1099 pages, €36). *** Facebook:   / histoireetcivilisationsmag   Instagram:   / histoireetcivilisations   Twitter:   / storiavoce
