The National Guard Woes of Alexandre Dumas: Witness to the June Rebellion

Maya Chhabra will present and discuss her translation of Alexandre Dumas’s account of the June 1832 rebellion, as described in his article “My National Guard Woes” (Mes Infortunes de Garde National). Chhabra and panelists will discuss this previously untranslated account, how the description of the rebellion fits into Dumas’s larger work on his experience in the National Guard, and possible issues of censorship, as the article was published under Louis-Philippe.
