Book Imperial Charade

Download or read book Imperial Charade written by Alyn Brodsky and published by MacMillan Publishing Company. This book was released on 1978 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though appallingly mismatched -- sexually, emotionally, politically -- the scheming nephew of Napoleon I and his headstrong Spanish consort had each cultivated in childhood a dream that thoroughly jibed with the ambitions of the other. A remarkable collusion of happenstance and ingenuity carried them to the throne. Once in power, Napoleon III and Eugénie set out to revive a glittering and decadent Napoleonic gloire. But while they were designing the Paris of today, with its magnificent parks, boulevards, and architectural wonders, they were also dreaming up the Mexican fiasco responsible for poor Maximilian's death. They were to direct the course of our own time as well, for their disastrous foreign policies contributed to the rise of a Germany that would cause two world wars.

Book Napoleon III and His Regime

Download or read book Napoleon III and His Regime written by David Baguley and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2000-11-01 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Referred to in his time as “the Pretender” and “the sphinx of the Tuileries,” Louis Napoléon Bonaparte—the nephew of Emperor Napoleon I of France and himself ruler of the Second Empire (1852–1870)—so managed the manufacture of his public image and the masking of his private self that he is, ultimately, unknowable to this day. From the mysterious circumstances of his conception in 1807 to the strange events of his downfall in 1870 and death in 1873, he lived, loved, and reigned in an extraordinary aura of myth and fantasy under the shadow of his more famous uncle. Taking a highly innovative approach to this intriguing historical figure, David Baguley entertains sources in a mélange of media and forms—pictures, performances, spectacles, rituals, music, fiction, poems, plays, architecture, fashion, as well as Louis Napoléon’s own writings—to explore how the ruler was represented, invented, and interpreted by detractors and defenders alike. The dynamic process by which the legend of Napoleon III was elaborately fabricated and then vigorously dismantled unfolds under Baguley’s hand not chronologically but by generic categories, reflecting the author’s underlying conviction that history and literary depictments are not as incompatible as is often assumed. Baguley examines works by, among many others, Victor Hugo, Karl Marx, Émile Zola, Honoré Daumier, Jacques Offenbach, Gustave Flaubert, and Elizabeth Barrett Browning that range from history and biography to romanticized versions of the Emperor’s feats to parody, caricature, and satire. With its conspiratorial origins, its rising and dramatically falling action, its schemes, scandals, and tragic denouement, the Second Empire appears designed to inspire writers and artists. Napoleon III, Baguley observes, could well have been the central character, or temperament, in a naturalist novel. While most historians consider Louis Napoléon’s coup d’état of December 1851 to be his boldest endeavor, Baguley shows in this expansive and eloquent work that his most extravagant venture was to found a second Napoleonic empire, and he illustrates not only the power of the name and the image but also the precariousness of the Emperor’s reliance upon them. For Napoleon III, dissimulation was his natural state; opportunist or utopian reformer, or something in between, he must remain one of history’s most elusive and controversial figures, ever resisting final assessment.
