Retrieving memories from the French interlude of 1798-1800, the author presents current academic theories of collective memory and researched documents – some for the first time – in Malta and abroad to argue the case for Malta’s identity as perceived by different generations from various perspectives. Dr. Xuereb challenges the veracity of what Maltese history has been saying for the past 200 years about this crucial event and the British period that followed, provoking a debate by investigating and analyzing new perspectives and arguments.

Michel Vandepoorter, Ambassador of France to Malta –
The 1798-1800 events unfortunately appear to have defined France’s image in the Maltese mindset ever since, ignoring other periods of time but also the more positive contributions of these two years. Charles Xuereb’s outstanding book provides thought-provoking inputs and points out the necessity for Maltese people to take greater ownership of their long and rich history in order to better assert their identity.
