Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Napoleon´s Son It is just a hundred years since the birth of the only legitimate son of the great Napoleon. Poets have sung his praises, novelists and dramatists have used him as the central figure of their works, and he is the subject of many historical studies. Victor Hugo has rendered the King of Rome immortal; Francois Coppee and Beranger have composed popular songs in his praise; Alexandre Dumas, Balzac, Eugene Sue and Louise Mühlbach have made him the hero of their romances, while Welschinger and Wertheimer have also interested themselves with his fate. The curtain of the nineteenth century rose with applause for Napoleon I., and as it fell, before the close, we saw the resurrection of the King of Rome in Sarah Bernhardt´s rendering of the scenes in Rostand´s L´Aiglon. If Napoleon I. was the most remarkable man of the last century, his son was certainly one of the most unfortunate children in its annals.
