Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Dangers to England of the Alliance With the Men of the Coup D´etat: To Which Are Added, the Personal Confessions of the December Conspirators, and Some Biographical Notices of the Most Notorious of Them We forbid the very approach of the Pantheon of our great men to the Alexanders, Gengis-khans, Attilas, and Napoleons. Those so-called heroes are, in reality, but monsters of egotism, vanity, and infernal insensibility. Their lives are replete with crimes, for the like of which the ordinary assassin is hanged. In our opinion, they deserve still more than the Neros and Tiberii the appellation of scourges of mankind; for, owing to the fallacious glory of their arms, they add to all the harm they do, that of perverting the judgment of the vulgar, which admires instead of cursing them. Napoleon, styled the Great, was one of those scourges. His remembrance is still the idol of a deceived people, whom he reduced to a shameful servitude. That people, by a strange aberration, allows him the honour of victories, whose ultimate result was to bring twice the enemies of Prance to the very heart of Paris. This fatal popularity of the name which he wears, has given to M. Louis Napoleon Bonaparte a morbid ambition, which has decided his fate.
