Produktbeschreibung
The Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte is a biography of Napoleon Bonaparte written by his personal secretary, Louis Antoine Fauvelet de Bourrienne. The book was published in four volumes between 1829 and 1831. The Memoirs cover Napoleon's life from his early days in Corsica to his exile on Saint Helena. Bourrienne was a close confidante of Napoleon and had access to a wealth of information about his life and career. He provides detailed accounts of Napoleon's military campaigns, political alliances, and personal relationships. The Memoirs also shed light on the personality of Napoleon, his ambition, his love affairs, and his relationships with his family members and advisors. Bourrienne portrays Napoleon as a complex and often contradictory figure, with both strengths and weaknesses. The Memoirs were widely read and praised for their detailed and intimate portrayal of Napoleon, but they were also criticized for their partiality and lack of objectivity. Bourrienne was often accused of whitewashing Napoleon's actions and motives, and the accuracy of some of his accounts has been disputed. Despite these criticisms, the Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte remains an important source of information about one of the most influential figures in European history, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the life and career of Napoleon Bonaparte.
Autorenporträt
Louis Antoine Fauvelet de Bourrienne (1769-1834) was a French diplomat, politician, and writer, best known for his friendship with Napoleon Bonaparte and his memoirs of the Emperor. Bourrienne was born in Sens, France, and studied law in Paris. He began his career as a civil servant under the Ancien Régime, but he was dismissed from his position for his revolutionary sympathies. He then became a secretary to the French ambassador to Germany, where he met Napoleon, who was then a young officer. Bourrienne and Napoleon became close friends, and Bourrienne served as his private secretary during his rise to power. He accompanied Napoleon on his campaigns in Italy and Egypt, and was appointed Minister of State and Minister of the Interior under the Empire. After Napoleon's fall, Bourrienne went into exile in Germany and England. He returned to France after the Bourbon Restoration, but he was forced to flee the country again during the July Revolution of 1830. Bourrienne is best known for his Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte, which he began writing in 1829. The Memoirs were widely read and praised for their intimate portrayal of Napoleon, but they were also criticized for their partiality and lack of objectivity. Bourrienne died in Caen, France, in 1834. His Memoirs remain an important source of information about the life and career of Napoleon Bonaparte.
