Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Napoleon in Caricature, Vol. 1 of 2: 1795-1821 In a former work the writer has bestowed special attention on those Napoleonic caricatures which directly relate to the threatened invasion of England (1796-1806) and the incidents of the Great Terror. It will be nu necessary to repeat what has already been said con cerning them, although they will all find a place in the general lists given as Appendices. An endeavour will be made in these pages to bring into strong relief those caricatures which are typical of the general scheme of this form of attack on Napoleon, or which throw new light either on his public 01 private life, or the state of public feeling concerning him. Prominence will be given to several prints, which, notwithstanding their obvious interest and importance, are either wholly or partially unknown.

INTRODUCTION PICTORIAL SATIRE AS A FACTOR IN NAPOLEONIC HISTORY E; est le propre de l'homme," says Rabelais; and the history of literature and of art bears witness to the truth of the assertion. The earliest known forms of art are so grotesquely imitative as to suggest a sense of fun in the cave-dwellers. Primitive poetry also often descended from the doings of gods and heroes to sport with dwarfs or gnomes. In either case the motive is at bottom much the same. Man has always delighted in gibes and jests. The dullness of the cave or the lake-dwelling must be enlivened with jokes either in verse or in drawing. Thus can the chief, merry with ale, while away the long evening and live over again amidst his women-folk the joys of triumph over his defeated and disgraced rival. Mocking doggerel and mocking sketches, we may be sure, are as old as the race. They added zest to the efforts of the early bards. Possibly they are the fountain-head of art. It is therefore with something primitive, innate, and almost savage that we are concerned in these volumes. Caricature has always existed and will always exist, for it is the laughter of art. Milton in his gayer moods could in spirit hie away-- "to the spicy nut-brown ale With stories told of many a feat How Faery Mab the junkets eat. VOL. I. xvil b She was pinched and pulled, she said; And he, by Friar's lantern led, Tells how the drudging goblin sweat To earn his cream-bowl duly set." If the grave Puritan poet could delight in "Sport that wrinkled care derides And laughter holding both his sides," how much more so beings akin to Aristophanes, Plautus, Rabelais, and Calverley? Some artists there are who must sometimes sport even with the most serious subject --witness Holbein's Dance of Death. But...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Curiously enough, it has never been practically settled whence the ancestors of Napoleon Bonaparte came. He, himself, cared little for the pride of birth, and when, during his Consulate, they manufactured for him a genealogy descending from a line of kings, he laughed at it, and said that his patent of nobility dated from the battle of Montenotte. But, still, one would think he ought to know, for family tradition is strong; and if it can be trusted, this is his own account. ‘One day Napoleon questioned Canova about Alfieri, and Canova found an opportunity to render an important service to Florence, c. “Sire,” said he, “authorise the President of the Academy of Florence to take care of the frescoes and pictures. I heartily wish it. That will reflect great honour on your Majesty, who, I am assured, is of a noble Florentine family.” At these words the Empress (Maria Louisa) turned towards her husband and said:—“What! are you not Corsican?” “Yes,” replied Napoleon, “but of Florentine origin.” Canova then said:—“The President of the Academy of Florence, the Senator Allessandria, is of one of the most illustrious houses in the country, which has had one of its ladies married to a Bonaparte, thus you are Italian, and we boast of it.” “I am, certainly,” added Napoleon.’ Prince Napoleon Louis Bonaparte (brother to the Emperor) published in 1830, at Florence, a French translation of an old book about the sack of Rome, 1527, which gives an account of the family of the writer. But Majorca also puts in a claim to the older Bonapartes; and in 1852, Don Antonio Furio, a learned man, Member of the Royal Academies of Belles Lettres of Barcelona and Majorca, &c., made a declaration as to ‘the rank, dignity, and extinction of the noble family of Bonapart in the island of Majorca;’ and quotes from a book kept in the archives of Palma, in which are preserved the armorial escutcheons of the noble families of the Island, the arms of Bonapart—which were Dexter, on a field Azure, six stars, Or, placed two by two, Sinister, on a field gules, a lion rampant, Or; and the Chief Or, bears a scared eagle, sable. He says the family came from Genoa to Majorca, in which island its members were considered noblemen, and they filled several distinguished offices. In a register of burials relating to knights and gentlemen, written in 1559, the antiquity and nobility of the Bonaparts are clearly authenticated; and it would seem from Don Furio’s account (for all of which he gives chapter and verse) that the learned jurisconsult Don Hugo Bonapart left Majorca and went to Corsica, where, in 1411, he was made Regent of the Chancery of that place; and, as he settled there, his name was inscribed in the Golden Book of France.
