The Economy Of Glory From Ancien Rgime France To The Fall Of Napoleon

From the outset of Napoleon's career, the charismatic Corsican was compared to mythic heroes of antiquity like Achilles, and even today he remains the apotheosis of French glory, a value deeply embedded in the countrya Ts history. From this angle, the Napoleonic era can be viewed as the final chapter in the battle of the ancients and moderns. In this book, Robert Morrissey presents a literary and cultural history of glory and its development in France.
