Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Georges Lefebvre's portrayal of Napoleon and his era is regarded as a classic and comprehensive biography of the great Corsican. His brilliant psychological sketch is among the finest written about him. The author narrates not only the military and political events but also illuminates the social and economic aspects of the time. In a sophisticated manner, he reflects Napoleon's biography and personality within the context of an epoch, its historical conditions, and its dynamics. With Napoleon, the French Revolution comes to an end, ushering in a new era. As a brilliant strategist, he exploited the political vacuum and the security needs of the new bourgeois society to establish his dictatorship. He waged wars across old Europe until it collapsed, paving the way for a reconstruction modeled after France: the modern Europe of nation-states and the contemporary European social order emerged.
