Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Second Empire: Bonapartism, the Prince, the President, the Emperor Bonapartism stands to Napoleon in the somewhat peculiar relation in which most religions stand to their founder. The picturesque imagination of innumerable ironists has exhausted itself in speculations upon the probable feelings of various divine and semi-divine teachers when confronted with the full glories of their own shrines. But it may be doubted whether the sensations of the central personage at Kamakura or St. Peter's would bear comparison for irony with the thoughts which must rise in that little white-breeched, green-uniformed figure, fresh from a bath of ambrosial eau-de-Cologne prepared by an Elysian Constant, as he studies the externals of his career on the painted canvas of Meissonier or spells out his political message from the printed page of M. Paul de Cassagnac. And yet, unlike many teachers, the Emperor apprehended the purport of the gospel which he taught. Napoleon (it is a singular fact) was a Bonapartist. But he did not become one until he had ceased to be an Emperor. I. The realities of his career have become almost indecipherably obscured beneath the martyrlogy and miracles of the Napoleonic myth.

Book excerpt: 'BONAPARTISM stands to Napoleon in the somewhat peculiar relation in which most religions stand to their founder. The picturesque imagination of innumerable ironists has exhausted itself in speculations upon the probable feelings of various divine and semi-divine teachers when confronted with the full glories of their own shrines. But it may be doubted whether the sensations of the central personage at Kamakura or St. Peter's would bear comparison for irony with the thoughts which must rise in that little white-breeched, green-uniformed figure, fresh from a bath of ambrosial eau-de-Cologne prepared by an Elysian Constant, as he studies the externals of his career on the painted canvas of Meissonier or spells out his political message from the printed page of M. Paul de Cassagnac...' The Second Empire, originally published in 1922, is one of Philip Guedalla's earlier works. It aims to shine new light on the life of Napoleon III, whose career gradually become ever more mysteriously shrouded, obscured by the 'martyrology' of the Napoleonic myth. The Second Empire scrapes away at the palimpsest of voices, from the 'romantics, sentimentalists, and the reactionaries', that have added their distortions to the true and original story of Napoleon III. This volume is a fascinating treatment of one France's most famed historical figures, bringing together a rich array of sources from personal correspondences, popular contemporary verse, and even quasi-religious chants commonly heard in the streets of France that upheld Napoleon as a miraculous and legendary leader. Coupled with Guedalla's articulate and intellectual prose, The Second Empire presents a vivid, captivating, and scholarly biography that charts Napoleon's evolution from Prince, to President, to Emperor.Philip Guedalla was a prolific and popular biographer and historical and travel writer. With over 30 published works, including collections of essays and edited collections of the private letters of historical figures, Guedalla's oeuvre covers an impressively vast range of subjects from Napoleon and Palestine, If the Moors in Spain had Won, to The Jewish Past, and finally Middle East, 1940 to 1942: A Study in Air Power. Guedalla's epigrams - 'History repeats itself. Historians repeat each other', for example - are much beloved for their jocularity; indeed, his writing is distinguished for its wit and engaging style. He has been honoured by the National Portrait Gallery in London who hold many portraits of Guedalla in various mediums. He died in 1944 after contracting an illness during his service as Squadron Leader in the R.A.F.Albion Press is an imprint of Endeavour Press, the UK's leading independent digital publisher.

On the morning of Febuary 22 Louis Philippe-wasjsoagf_the_French: before sunset on February 24 France was a Republic. The King's r ----, . wMum------ f-y niimsters were tolerably unpopular. But then M. Guizot rather cultivated his unpopularity; and besides it was one of the advantages of constitutional government that one's ministers could be unpopular without imperilling the dynasty. There was a faintly nauseous atmosphere of financial scandal. But revelations have always titillated rather than scandalised French opinion, and it was hardly possible to govern a nation with a lively imagination and a peasant tradition of rapacity without giving cause for some deviation from financial probity. The edifice of the middle-class monarchy was not impressive; but it had an air of bow-windowed security which seemed to promise an indefinite future. An incautious minister had just commented on the stillness of affairs: it was the same calm which deluded Mr. Pitt into promising the House of Commons fifteen years of peace six months before his country went to twenty-three years of war, which led Mr. Hammond of the Foreign Office to observe to his Secretary of State that there was not a cloud in the sky as the black wrack of 1870 was driving up towards France. But the world seemed very still in France by the grey light of February 1848. There was peace in Europe; but its blessings are rarely appreciated until after an outbreak of war. French opinion was a little restless. The domestic felicity of an elderly King was becoming almost exasperating to a generation whose appetite for sensation had been pleasantly...

Book excerpt: "Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte (20 April 1808 ? 9 January 1873) was the first President of the French Republic and, as Napoleon III, the ruler of the Second French Empire. He was the nephew and heir of Napoleon I. Elected President by popular vote in 1848, he initiated a coup d'état in 1851, before ascending the throne as Napoleon III on 2 December 1852, the forty-eighth anniversary of Napoleon I's coronation. He ruled as Emperor of the French until 4 September 1870. He holds the distinction of being both the first titular president and the last monarch of France."--Wikipedia.
