Excerpt: ...doubtful whether to proceed or halt here for the night, I was pressed to adopt the latter resolution, which I at length declared my, intention of doing. Immediately many offers were made me of accommodation for the night, and it was not until after strong entreaties that I was persuaded partly to accept of one of them. Having ordered a bed to be procured for me at the post-house, I accompanied one of the Spaniards, who appeared the most warm in his offers, to his own habitation: the name of this hospitable man was Don Francisco de Paula de Rovles: he had been a soldier in his earlier years, and had even served against the English, but his present enthusiasm was highly raised in fa-_ vour of that nation, ' which he declared he had never been able thoroughly to consider as hostile to his own. I found his house neat and well furnished, and was received by his wife with the utmost kindness and attention: in a short time a. dinner was set before me in a far more comfortable style than I had witnessed since leaving Lisbon; nor was it possible for my kind hostess sufliciently: to shew her attention;.h.e.r choicest fruits, her best conserves, the oldest wine, the bestliqueurs, were heaped upon the board, and I was pressed with almost more than Highland hospitality to taste of every delicacy. During my repast a most venerable priest entered the room, and seated himself without much ceremony in the principal seat: he entered: into conversation, and even deigned to join de Rovles and his wife in their lamentations for the fate of the English army, and its General, who had died in the Spanish cause. After a short pause, the Priest exclaimed, " I should like you English, well enough, but there are so few Christians among you: "--Such an...

Download or read book Peninsular Eyewitnesses written by Charles Esdaile and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2008-09-30 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many books have been written about the British struggle against Napoleon in the Peninsula. A few recent studies have given a broader view of the ebb and flow of a long war that had a shattering impact on Spain and Portugal and marked the history of all the nations involved. But none of these books has concentrated on how these momentous events were perceived and understood by the people who experienced them. Charles Esdaile has brought together a vivid selection of contemporary accounts of every aspect of the war to create a panoramic yet minutely detailed picture of those years of turmoil. The story is told through memoirs, letters and eyewitness testimony from all sides. Instead of generals and statesmen, we mostly hear from less-well-known figures - junior officers and ordinary soldiers and civilians who recorded their immediate experience of the conflict.
Download or read book Staging the Peninsular War written by Susan Valladares and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Napoleon's invasion of Portugal in 1807 to his final defeat at Waterloo, the English theatres played a crucial role in the mediation of the Peninsular campaign. In the first in-depth study of English theatre during the Peninsular War, Susan Valladares contextualizes the theatrical treatment of the war within the larger political and ideological axes of Romantic performance. Exploring the role of spectacle in the mediation of war and the links between theatrical productions and print culture, she argues that the popularity of theatre-going and the improvisation and topicality unique to dramatic performance make the theatre an ideal lens for studying the construction of the Peninsular War in the public domain. Without simplifying the complex issues involved in the study of citizenship, communal identities, and ideological investments, Valladares recovers a wartime theatre that helped celebrate military engagements, reform political sympathies, and register the public’s complex relationship with Britain’s military campaign in the Iberian Peninsula. From its nuanced reading of Richard Brinsley Sheridan's Pizarro (1799), to its accounts of wartime productions of Shakespeare, description of performances at the minor theatres, and detailed case study of dramatic culture in Bristol, Valladares’s book reveals how theatrical entertainments reflected and helped shape public feeling on the Peninsular campaign.
