| Summary |
"Insurrections et guerre des barricades dans les grandes villes" by le Général de Brigade Roguet is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The work examines the phenomena of insurrections and civil strife in major European cities, particularly through the lens of military strategy and urban warfare. The book likely delves into various historical examples of uprisings, the conditions that give rise to them, and the methods employed for suppressing such disturbances. The opening of the book introduces the historical context within which urban insurrections occur, emphasizing their significance in shaping governance and social order. Roguet starts by discussing moral circumstances influencing civil conflicts, citing historical instances of uprisings from ancient cities to medieval Italy, including the notable barricades erected during these tumultuous events. He suggests that the tactics and strategies of both civilians and military forces are critical to understanding the dynamics of such upheavals, setting the stage for a detailed exploration of specific cases in subsequent chapters.
