Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Letters of Madame Bonaparte The long, eventful, and romantic career of Madame Bonaparte made her one of the most famous women of the country. Her remarkable history covers a period of ninety-four years. Born four years before the organization of the United States government by the original Thirteen States, she lived to see the Union composed of thirty-eight States, with a population of nearly fifty millions. At the time of her birth, Baltimore was a small town of little more than four thousand inhabitants; she lived to see it a large city of little less than four hundred thousand. Born the daughter of a Baltimore merchant, Elizabeth Patterson became, by her marriage with Jerome Bonaparte, the sister-in-law of the Emperor Napoleon and the half-dozen kings and queens whom the French Caesar placed upon the thrones of Europe.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mademoiselle Mathilde, Vol. 2 of 3: A Novel On the fifth day of his stay the weather, wild, dark, and dim ever since his arrival at Lulworth, was darker and wilder than ever, rushing into the cove from the westward with sheets of wind-driven rain, and making the yacht, lying snug, with top masts sent down, surge at her anchors. M. D'isigny said he must ride homewards. A bright boy of nine, looking out into the weather, told him that he was much better where he was; for that there was plenty more weather coming, and that he was going on board the yacht, as soon as the sailing-master was ready, to see to her moorings.

Download or read book Mathilde princesse Bonaparte written by Jérôme Picon and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La seule femme de sa famille : voilà comment le comte de Viel-Castel, intime de la Princesse, définissait Mathilde, nièce de l'Empereur, son portrait au féminin, et l'originale du clan. Bonaparte et princesse jusqu'au bout des ongles, la fille du roi de Westphalie ne démordit jamais de son culte pour Napoléon ; et c'est peut-être à son oncle qu'elle doit ce caractère ombrageux, ce goût des répliques bien senties qui faisaient les délices de ses contemporains. Mariée à vingt ans au prince Demidoff, un dandy richissime mais qui se révèle syphilitique et violent, elle choisit l'indépendance dès 1846, obtenant au passage une avantageuse séparation : beaucoup d'argent, un cousin haut placé (Napoléon III), de la beauté, un tempérament passionné la font bientôt la femme la plus en vue du Second Empire. Dans son salon fastueux de la rue de Courcelles, elle accueille les Goncourt, Flaubert, Théophile Gautier, Dumas et tant d'autres, fait les académiciens et les sénateurs, et prend pour amant le plus bel homme du siècle, le surintendant des Beaux-Arts Nieuwerkerke. À la chute de l'Empire, elle s'enfuit, mais revient à Paris dès 1871, recréant autour d'elle une cour de fidèles, que fréquentent le jeune Proust, Robert de Montesquiou, Mme Straus, les Daudet... Elle s'éteint en 1904, suscitant une émotion nationale, elle, la nièce de Napoléon, celle qui avait eu ce mot, quand son neveu Louis se disait tenté par la carrière des armes : " ce n'est pas une raison, parce que tu as eu un militaire dans ta famille...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Youth of the Duchess of Angouleme If there are nations which have not glory enough, there are others which, as an offset, have too much. It may be said of French annals that in this respect they sin by excess. Our illustrious country has three legends, all of which - the legend of royalty, the republican legend, and the imperial legend - occupy many grand pages - pages which, however, contradict each other and deprive our nation of that character of unity which is as essential to the life of nations as to that of individuals. The adage, "Happy are the nations that have no history," should not be taken literally. But the fact must be recognized that nations which have too much history are not happy. It is the misfortune of France that she has been divided against herself. United, she would have been able, as in the days of Louis XIV., to defy all Europe and repel every invasion.
