18021766Stockholm: tryckt hos Carl Delén 1802. First Swedish edition. Papered spine. Occasional brown spots. In very good condition. First Swedish edition. 87 1 p. <p><br /> First edition of the Swedish translation of the first biography of the "Black Napoleon" Toussaint-Louverture.<br /> <p><p><br /> François-Dominique Toussaint Louverture 1743-1803 was an ex-slave the best-known and the most successful black commanders of the Haitian Revolution the only successful slave rebellion in history. The insurrection culminated in the elimination of slavery and the founding of the Republic of Haiti in 1804 the first independent black republic and the second independent nation in the Western Hemisphere.<br /> <p><p><br /> Approaching the last phase of the Revolution after Toussaint Louverture defeated the British expeditionary force in 1798 and led a successful invasion of the neighboring Santo Domingo freeing the slaves there in late 1800 and early 1801 he issued a constitution for Saint-Domingue that decreed he would be governor-for-life and called for black autonomy and a sovereign black state. In response Napoleon Bonaparte dispatched a large expeditionary force of French soldiers and warships to the island to restore French rule. At the same time the ongoing campaign to vilify Louverture has been increased and Bonaparte's regime hired Jean-Louis Dubroca 1757-1835 to lead the propaganda war against Louverture. Dubroca wrote and published a biography La vie de Toussaint-Louverture chef des noirs insurgés de Saint-Domingue in 1802 accusing him of treason and murder and attacking for his hypocrisy and desperate ambitions Ghachem; Danforth 2014. Besides Swedish the book was translated into English and Dutch in the same year later into German and Spanish published in Mexico in 1806.<br /> <p><p><br /> In her dissertation Helen Matthews claims that Dubroca's book appeared several months before Charles-Yves Cousin D'Avallon's Histoire de Toussaint-Louverture Paris 1802 thus it is the first biography of Louverture published in France Matthews 2012.<br /> <p>. tryckt hos Carl Delén unknown
