Napoleon Bonaparte Pořadí knih

A l'occasion du bicentenaire Napoléon 1821-2021, nous avons le plaisir de rééditer pour la première fois depuis sa parution originale en 1913, trente lettres composant un recueil épistolaire rare et peu connu des spécialistes de Napoléon, connu sous le titre de ""Tendresses impériales"". Ces courriers retracent l'amour naissant entre le jeune Bonaparte, alors encore général, et la future impératrice Joséphine.

Když byl Napoleon po bitvě u Waterloo v roce 1815 internován na vzdáleném ostrově Svatá Helena, doprovázel ho mimo jiné věrný hrabě de Las Cases. Po celou dobu svého pobytu na ostrově zaznamenával do deníku Napoleonovy vzpomínky, úvahy a myšlenky. Padlý císař se hodně soustředil na „poslední dějství“ svého životního dramatu – útěk z Elby, závěrečných „sto dnů“ svého panování a osudnou bitvu –, ale věnoval se i šťastnějším dobám své dráhy, literatuře, dějinám a dalším tématům. A protože je kniha psána živým, kultivovaným jazykem, zdaleka není jen historickým dokumentem, ale patří do klasické francouzské literatury stejně jako další proslulé memoáry. Český překlad byl pořízen jako první s přihlédnutím k novému francouzskému vydání podle původního rukopisu, objeveného teprve v nedávné době. Přeložil, úvodní studii napsal a poznámkami opatřil Aleš Pohorský.

Focusing on the art of war, this collection distills Napoleon's military wisdom and principles derived from his extensive experience and study of historical commanders. David G. Chandler’s commentary contextualizes these maxims within the framework of 20th-century conflicts, offering insights into how military leaders have applied or ignored Napoleon's teachings. This essential volume serves as a valuable resource for military students and enthusiasts seeking to understand the strategic brilliance that underpinned Napoleon's successes in warfare and diplomacy.

Spurred by a lifelong fascination with the great emperor, French novelist Honore de Balzac set himself the painstaking task of collecting a selection of Napoleon's aphorisms from his public speeches and the gazettes of the time.

When words of love do not come to you on their own, then read these letters. Complete, actual love letters of great men like Lord Byron, John Keats and Voltaire. Leaders like Henry VIII, George Washington, and Napoleon, who wrote to his beloved Josephine, "I awake consumed with thoughts of you..." Artists like van Gogh, Mozart, and Beethoven, who famously penned, "Though still in bed, my thoughts go out to you, my Immortal Beloved..." Dozens of intimate letters, coupled with over a score of period illustrations. Plus fascinating biographies, and insights into the couples' relationships-how they got there, the obstacles they faced, and what happened next. Poet warriors, from the first through the twentieth century, Ovid, Sir Walter Raleigh, Goethe, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Leo Tolstoy, Victor Hugo, Shelley, Robert Browning, Edgar Allen Poe, Mark Twain, Lewis Carroll, Pierre Curie, George Bernard Shaw, Jack London, Admiral Peary, Woodrow Wilson, and many more.

Remember the wonderfully romantic book of letters by Beethoven, Byron and Napoleon that featured in the Sex and the City film? That collection didn't actually exist, but all of the letters referenced in the film were real; so Macmillan decided to create Love Letters of Great Men . . .

Sur les français, l'art de gouverner ou celui de faire la guerre, ces aphorismes, sentences et réflexions de l'Empereur, toujours d'actualité, témoignent d'une ironie, d'un cynisme et d'une clairvoyance hors pair. Un livre à offrir à tous ceux qui se sentent attirés par la politique.

Della vita avventurosa di Napoleone Bonaparte e del suo temperamento sappiamo ormai quasi tutto, sebbene resti ancora da scoprire qualcosa di più sull'uomo Napoleone Bonaparte. Non particolarmente vicino alle 'belles lettres', Napoleone ci ha lasciato una serie di brevi pensieri morali, aforismi politici e massime sulla guerra, riunite in questo volume. Si tratta di una raccolta di riflessioni personali, scritte in momenti diversi e talvolta in piena contraddizione tra loro, che si rivelano uno strumento di analisi interessante e utile al fine di individuare tratti della personalità e delle idee di Napoleone.

This is an illustrated "autobiography" of the Emperor Napoleon compiled from his commentaries and memoirs dictated on St Helena, edited and put into chronological order. The text spans his childhood in Corsica to exile on St Helena and covers family feuds, divorce from Josephine, retreat from Moscow, Waterloo and more - all in his own words. Napoleon was in inveterate writer, he dictated obsessively and edited his own scripts. He was also very aware of his position as one of history's great leaders. The book should be useful to military enthusiasts, historians and writers.
