In 1814-1815, after the French revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, the leaders of the most important countries in Europe gathered together to redraw the frontiers of their continent. The Congress of Vienna explores the attempt by Britain, Russia, Austria and Prussia to agree Europe's new frontiers after almost twenty years of continuous fighting against France and analyses how successful the Congress was. The Congress of Vienna offers a readable introduction to this difficult topic, providing a background to the negotiations, a summary of the agreements reached and assessm

Convened following Napoleon's defeat in 1814, the Congress of Vienna is remembered as much for the pageantry of the royals and elites who gathered there as for the landmark diplomatic agreements they brokered. Historians have nevertheless generally dismissed these spectacular festivities as window dressing when compared with the serious, behind-the-scenes maneuverings of sovereigns and statesmen. Brian Vick finds this conventional view shortsighted, seeing these instead as two interconnected dimensions of politics. Examining them together yields a more complete picture of how one of the most important diplomatic summits in history managed to redraw the map of Europe and the international system of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The Congress of Vienna investigates the Vienna Congress within a broad framework of influence networks that included unofficial opinion-shapers of all kinds, both men and women: artists and composers, entrepreneurs and writers, hosts and attendees of fashionable salons. In addition to high-profile negotiation and diplomatic wrangling over the post-Napoleonic fates of Germany, Italy, and Poland, Vick brings into focus other understudied yet significant issues: the African slave trade, Jewish rights, and relations with Islamic powers such as the Ottoman Empire and Barbary Corsairs. Challenging the usual portrayal of a reactionary Congress obsessed with rolling back Napoleon's liberal reforms, Vick demonstrates that the Congress's promotion of limited constitutionalism, respect for religious and nationality rights, and humanitarian interventions was influenced as much by liberal currents as by conservative ones.

De novembre 1814 à juin 1815, entre Restauration et Empire, se tient dans la capitale autrichienne la plus grande réunion diplomatique de l'histoire, destinée à réorganiser une Europe bouleversée par ving tdeux années de guerres. Elle fut bien plus qu'un tourbillon de fêtes, de bals et de spectacles. Dans cette ample machinerie de 300 délégations, le Français Talleyrand, représentant des vaincus, sut manoeuvrer avec maestria. Mais l'épisode des Cent-Jours vint tout compromettre, et le congrès reste, pour les Français, un mauvais souvenir. Ont-ils raison ? « Mon but, explique l'auteur, a certes été de raconter l'événement ? ce qui vaut la peine ?, mais aussi (...) d'évaluer l'importance de ses rebondissements, d'analyser ses décisions et leurs conséquences, sans me priver d'aller me promener dans ses coulisses. » Détaché du point de vue gallocentrique, cet ouvrage est en vérité le premier qui embrasse le congrès de Vienne dans toutes ses dimensions, en le rendant pleinement à son temps.
