Bourbon Restoration

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Bourbon Restoration

(1814–30) In France, the period that began when Napoleon abdicated and the Bourbon monarchs were restored to the throne. The First Restoration occurred when Napoleon fell from power and Louis XVIII became king. Louis's reign was interrupted by Napoleon's return to France (see Hundred Days), but Napoleon was forced to abdicate again, leading to the Second Restoration. The period was marked by a constitutional monarchy of moderate rule (1816–20), followed by a return of the ultras during the reign of Louis's brother, Charles X (1824–30). Reactionary policies revived the opposition liberals and moderates and led to the July Revolution, Charles's abdication, and the end of the Bourbon Restoration.

Sensibly, given his brief, Horne has chosen to focus on the social and cultural changes during the period of Napoleon's peak influence, from 1795, when he received his first post with political clout, to 1820, when his presence was still felt in a shaky Bourbon restoration.
