Scope and content
Concerns as Austria is drawn into the discussion with the Allies. The resumption of hostilities becomes increasingly likely, as Caulaincourt suggests that Napoleon should sue for peace after a few battles meant to restore the honor of the French armies/strengthen France’s negotiating position (8 August 1813).
Resumption of hostilities on August 13 1813 sees Austria join the Allied cause. Caulaincourt’s breaks the news to the Emperor in agitated prose, urging Bonaparte to make peace (14 August 1813 [letter particularly noteworthy]).
