The Battle of the Nile of 1798 was one of the most important naval battles that has ever been fought. This episode presents an introduction explaining the context of the battle and is followed by a reading of an account written by Captain Samuel Hood of HMS Zealous. The battle was fought at a key moment of French expansion. The French army, led by Napoleon, had been landed in Egypt by a huge French flotilla, protected by a powerful naval force. A British squadron, led by Horatio Nelson, caught them at Aboukir Bay and inflicted a devastating defeat. The result was that Napoleon's army was stranded and Nelson's fame burned more brightly than ever. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The 1st of August 1798 saw the British fleet sailing towards Alexandria into a land of classical history and mythology, the sun setting like blood over the River Nile and French flags flying over the city. The scene could not be more perfectly suited to the cataclysmic battle that would soon take place there, in which Horatio Nelson would guild his legend forever. Charged with leading a squadron of fourteen ships into the Mediterranean to find Napoleon Bonaparte and his vast fleet, Nelson had chased him all the way to Alexandria which the French had seized along with the rest of Egypt. At last, lookouts spot the masts of Napoleon's ships - a moment of near transcendent excitement for Nelson and the men of his fleet. At last, it seemed, the moment had come for their battle of total annihilation in all its gore and glory. Wary of this, the French commanders urged Bonaparte to withdraw, but in his hubris the French general refused. So it was that the greatest naval battle of the 18th century began, to the thunder of cannons, screaming sailors, and the chaos of gun smoke, soot, splinters and blood…. Join Dominic and Tom as they describe one of the most decisive and dramatic moments of both naval history and Horatio Nelson's life: the Battle of the Nile. _______ Twitter: @TheRestHistory @holland_tom @dcsandbrook Producer: Theo Young-Smith Assistant Producer: Tabby Syrett Executive Producers: Jack Davenport + Tony Pastor Learn more about your ad choices.

La Batalla de Trafalgar, librada el 21 de octubre de 1805 frente a las costas de Cádiz, fue uno de los enfrentamientos navales más decisivos de la historia. En ella, la flota combinada de España y Francia se enfrentó a la poderosa armada británica, comandada por el legendario almirante Horatio Nelson. Bajo un cielo cargado de nubes y con el Atlántico como escenario, los cañones de más de 60 navíos retumbaron en una lucha que definiría el dominio de Europa. Para España, Trafalgar fue una tragedia cargada de heroísmo, con barcos como el Santa Ana y el Príncipe de Asturias resistiendo hasta el final. Las olas se tiñeron de fuego y sangre, y el resultado selló no solo la superioridad naval británica, sino también el declive de las flotas españolas y francesas en el escenario internacional. Esta batalla no solo cambió el curso de las guerras napoleónicas, sino que marcó el inicio de un nuevo orden marítimo en Europa. Para hablar de todo ello contamos con la presencia de Agustín Guimerá, miembro del CSIC, de la Real Academia de la Historia, y autor del libro Trafalgar, una derrota gloriosa.

In the wake of the Battle of Cape St. Vincent in 1797, Horatio Nelson, though a much acclaimed public hero for his bravery during the battle, is in the doldrums. Having led a harebrained attack on Tenerife, Nelson must now contend with the loss of his arm. Upon returning to England, famous and lauded, Nelson declared his intention to retire to a cottage in the countryside to recover. However, carrying on the tide from France came murmurings that that the French were amassing an enormous force of soldiers and ships. The supreme commander of this formidable host: a Corsican by the name of Napoleon Bonaparte. It seemed that at last, the monumental struggle for which Britain had been grimly preparing up for so long - a total struggle of apocalyptic proportions - was in the offing. And with it, Nelson, the man of the hour, was given command of the squadron charged with finding the vast French fleet and hunting down the formidable Napoleon. Nelson's hour of glory had finally arrived.  Join Dominic and Tom as they discuss the aftermath of the Battle of St. Vincent, Nelson's burgeoning legend and emotional turmoil, and his thrilling hunt for Napoleon Bonaparte.   _______ LIVE SHOWS *The Rest Is History LIVE in the U.S.A.* If you live in the States, we've got some great news: Tom and Dominic will be performing throughout America in November, with shows in San Francisco, L.A., Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Boston and New York.

It is 1793 and France has declared war on Britain, meaning that the British navy must serve as both sword and shield to Europe. Horatio Nelson is at this time a slim and sickly 34 year old captain who nevertheless burns with the zeal to serve his king and country, and has recently taken over command of the impressive Agamemnon. Meanwhile, the British navy has taken Toulon by the summer of 1793 through diplomatic means - its foothold in the Mediterranean - but is struggling to hold it. Upon arriving in the city Nelson is shocked to find it besieged by the French, under the leadership of one Napoleon Bonaparte - the first time that these two titanic rivals of history will brush shoulders, but not the last. At last the city falls to the French, and the British must go in search of another Mediterranean base. They settle upon Corsica - Bonaparte's homeland. It is there, on the morning of the 12th of July that during the siege of Calvi that Nelson is struck in the face by a spray of stone and shrapnel, severely blinding his left eye forever more. Will this critical injury prematurely end his promising career? Just as a great armada of Spanish and French ships gathers on the horizon, heralding the coming one of history's bloodiest naval battles... Join Dominic and Tom as they discuss the Siege of Toulon, Nelson's heroic early forays into the Mediterranean, and the dramatic aftermath of his first near fatal injury. _______ LIVE SHOWS *The Rest Is History LIVE in the U.S.A.* If you live in the States, we've got some great news: Tom and Dominic will be performing throughout America in November, with shows in San Francisco, L.A., Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Boston and New York.

It's 1758 and Britain's greatest naval commander has just been born. The young Horatio Nelson has inherited his father's love of god and his mother's hatred of the French. At age 12, he leaves Norfolk for a life on the high seas. As a teen, Nelson narrowly avoided death on multiple occasions. He survives a nasty encounter with the Sultan of Mysore, the blistering cold on a failed expedition in the North Pole, a nasty bout of Malaria contracted in India, and far more besides. Propelled by his excellence and bravery, he rose quickly to become a captain.This brings us to 1788 where Nelson, now a married man in his thirties and back in his childhood home, learns that England is going to war with France. Without hesitation, he swaps the simple domestic life for the thrill of the high seas once more…  Join Tom and Dominic as they discuss Nelson's early life and adventures, as he sets out along a path that would eventually enable British domination of the seas; and the world. _______ LIVE SHOWS *The Rest Is History LIVE in the U.S.A.* If you live in the States, we've got some great news: Tom and Dominic will be performing throughout America in November, with shows in San Francisco, L.A., Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Boston and New York.

L'expression "un coup de Trafalgar" tire son origine d'un événement historique majeur : la bataille de Trafalgar, qui eut lieu le 21 octobre 1805. Cet affrontement naval, l'un des plus célèbres de l'Histoire, opposa la flotte britannique commandée par l'amiral Horatio Nelson aux forces combinées de la France et de l'Espagne, dirigées par les amiraux Pierre-Charles de Villeneuve et Federico Gravina. Pour comprendre pourquoi cette bataille est devenue le symbole d'une catastrophe ou d'un coup dur inattendu, il faut plonger dans le contexte historique de l'époque. Napoléon Bonaparte, alors empereur des Français, dominait le continent européen, mais la Royal Navy britannique restait un obstacle majeur à ses ambitions d'invasion de l'Angleterre. Pour contrer cette menace, Napoléon planifia une stratégie complexe visant à affaiblir la suprématie maritime britannique. Cependant, les plans de l'empereur furent contrecarrés lors de cette bataille au large du cap Trafalgar, au sud de l'Espagne. Malgré leur supériorité numérique, les forces franco-espagnoles furent défaites de manière écrasante par la flotte de Nelson, grâce à des tactiques audacieuses et innovantes. Nelson, bien que mortellement blessé pendant l'affrontement, parvint à briser la ligne de défense de l'ennemi, infligeant une perte dévastatrice à la coalition. La défaite fut si catastrophique qu'elle marqua la fin des ambitions navales de Napoléon et la domination totale de la Royal Navy sur les mers. C'est ainsi que l'expression "un coup de Trafalgar" a pris un sens figuré pour désigner un événement soudain, dramatique, et désastreux, qui bouleverse totalement la situation. Ce terme évoque l'idée d'un revers imprévu, souvent causé par une trahison ou un enchaînement d'éléments défavorables. Le terme garde une forte connotation de surprise et de choc, symbolisant une situation où tout semblait sous contrôle avant de basculer dans le désastre. En somme, cette expression illustre la puissance symbolique d'une défaite historique, dont l'impact s'est inscrit durablement dans l'imaginaire collectif. Elle rappelle que même les stratégies les mieux préparées peuvent être balayées par un retournement imprévu, à l'image de la déroute des flottes alliées face à l'ingéniosité britannique à Trafalgar.

On the evening of 21st October 1805 Great Britain won perhaps her finest military victory, defeating the navies of France and Spain in one of the bloodiest naval battles at Trafalgar, not far from Gibraltar. In command was Admiral Horatio Nelson, who had tragically been shot by a cowardly French sharpshooter, though as his life ebbed away, he was consoled that victory was his. When the news reached England, the country was plunged into grief, despite the result. Joining me to discuss the great man is Dominic Sandbrook. He has written a fantastic new book, Nelson: Hero of the Seas, and is one half of a very well-known podcast. Coming up on Tuesday I have naval historian Michael Barritt talking Trafalgar on the anniversary.

Horatio Nelson: Naval Hero, Leadership Icon Confident. Calm. Decisive. A man of sound judgement. That's Lord Horatio Nelson, one of the most celebrated military leaders in British history. He was a hero of Warwick's growing up, who's become an example of someone with the personal character and interpersonal skills that can benefit all of us as we navigate our journey to lives of significance. This week, in the eighth installment of our series within the show -- STORIES FROM THE BOOK CRUCIBLE LEADERSHIP -- we discuss what made Nelson a brilliant and beloved leader and the lessons we all can learn from him about motivating and mobilizing teams to achieve a critical goal. We also unpack the details of the two defining battles in Nelson's naval career: The Battle of the Nile and the Battle of Trafalgar. The first one made Nelson a national hero. The second made him an icon for the ages. “Living your values, living your beliefs, is absolutely key to living a life of significance,” Warwick says. "And that's what Nelson did.” To explore Beyond the Crucible resources, including our free Trials-to-Triumphs Self-Assessment, visit beyondthecrucible.com Enjoy the show?

During the summer break, the 15-Minute History podcast team is republishing some of their favorite episodes. This episode, Joan of Arc, originally aired on February 13, 2023. He was on the quarterdeck when he realized it. The smoke was thick between the two ships and it was hard to make any sense of the melee. His men pushed forward against the other crew as grenades and musket fire came from the masts. The sun was low on the horizon and the impending dark blended into a sea of undefined movement. The world was noise. One of the enemy sailors slashed at him. He parried the blow and drove the man's sword into the deck of the ship. Turning the blade upward, he cut across the man's gut and kicked him aside as he focused on the fight in front of him. The chaos slowed and his senses focused, giving him almost perfect clarity. He immediately turned to his second in command and ordered them to keep engaging. He jumped onto the railing of his ship to bypass the hordes of men and ran across it before jumping back to his deck and going into his quarters. He burst into the main room and peered out the window to the other ship, gauged the distance, and then broke the windows of the cabin until all the shards were gone. He backed up, took a deep breath, and ran to the window. Jumping through it, he crashed through the glass of the enemy's captain's quarters. Immediately after hitting the carpet, he did a forward roll, sprang to his feet, and surveyed the room. After a moment, he saw the other man standing in the corner, his eyes wide, his sword drawn. He drew his own sword and pointed the tip at the man in the corner. “You sir, are a coward.” Not another word was spoken. And when he left the cabin and entered into the wider battle, he left nothing behind. Join us as we teach you about Horatio Nelson, his life, achievements, and why he is considered one of the greatest heroes in British (and world) history. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/15minutehistory/support

The fervour with which Lord Horatio Nelson was feted in the late 18th and early 19th century meant his affair with Lady Emma Hamilton was forgiven, with Nelson's long suffering wife Fanny Nelson blamed for driving her husband away.

Naval commander Horatio Nelson became the first non-Royal to receive a full British state funeral on 9th January, 1806, when tens of thousands of mourners lined the streets of London to pay tribute to their fallen hero - including, surprisingly, his defeated counterpart, French admiral Pierre-Charles de Villeneuve.  The anticipation for the burial was fuelled by the nationalistic fervour that developed during the two months it took from news of Nelson's death at the Battle of Trafalgar to his body arriving back in Britain. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly pick apart ‘Kiss Me Hardy'; explain how it was his earlier success at the Battle of the Nile that cemented his reputation as a household name; and pore over his commemorative funeral merch, from Union flags to anchor earrings… Further Reading: • ‘Nelson's funeral' (Royal Museums Greenwich): https://www.rmg.co.uk/stories/topics/nelsons-funeral • 'Horatio Nelson: Britain's Famous Admiral' (The Collector, 2021): https://www.thecollector.com/horatio-nelson-britain-famous-admiral/ • ‘1805: The Battle That Shattered Napoleon's Invasion Plans' (Timeline, 2023): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-po6WQ-wDd0 Love the show?

A special episode which explores the young 16 year-old midshipman Horatio Nelson's exploits on the Phipps' expedition in search of a Northeast Passage in 1773, in which he fought off a walrus. The episode is linked to an ongoing project run by St Paul's Cathedral and the University of York '50 Monuments in 50 Voices' which showcases thought-provoking, individual responses to 50 unique monuments at St Paul's Cathedral from artists, writers, musicians, theologians and academics. Of all of those monuments, Nelson's tomb is the most significant. This episode presents an original piece of prose written by Dr Sam Willis inspired by Nelson's tomb and his exploits fighting off a walrus when he was a teenager. 'I Survived the Walrus' is written in Nelson's voice. It explores the myths that grew up around Nelson's life; the curious mixture of inner strength and physical frailty that characterised his life and exploits; and his ability to inspire and comfort.

Napoleon is back in the cinemas, and apparently, there are more movies made about him than any other person, he is third on the list of most books written about a person (behind Jesus and Hitler). So what is the allure and what can we learn from this Mesianic leadership figure?    To dig deep into these questions Jonathan Gosling and Stephanie Jones join me as guests, bringing their insights from their book on Napoleonic Leadership, a study of power which you can download from here www.napoleonic-leadership.com This is a rich conversation, exploring ideas of charisma, power, and patronage, and asking questions about how certain contexts create the conditions for different leadership approaches.  We explore the object of desire and how charisma is not just about having an extrovert personality, but how a leader harnesses the desires of a nation to their own desires, and most importantly takes action.  Jonathan reflects on this active element of leadership and how tactics and power, mixed with the drive to act were a big part of Napoleon's leadership approach.  If you've watched the movie, listen to the analysis and review if you are interested in leadership, this is a must-listen anyway.

La Batalla de Trafalgar representa uno de los episodios más cruciales de las Guerras Napoleónicas y un punto de inflexión en la historia naval. La contienda se libró cerca del cabo de Trafalgar, en las costas de Cádiz, frente al municipio de Barbate, y enfrentó a la armada combinada de Francia y España contra la Marina Real Británica. Está considerada como una de las batallas navales más importantes del siglo XIX, y es especialmente recordada por la audaz táctica del almirante británico Horatio Nelson y por decisiones cuestionables por parte de los almirantes franceses y españoles, que llevaron a una derrota devastadora para la coalición.

When William IV (1830-37) was a teenage sailor drinking and debauching his way across the empire alongside such esteemed friends as Horatio Nelson, no one expected that one day he would king. He was taught no royal graces or decorum, yet his time would come. He was described as unassuming and disinterested in pomp and as hard-working and conscientious. Despite a short rule, he would provide royal assent to some of the most significant acts in British history. He had political views and his lack of royal training meant; he would not be lightly brushed aside.

1798. April… May… June… Three months in which Horatio Nelson utterly fails to track down Napoelon Bonaparte's fleet heading for Egypt… Rebellion finally breaks out in Ireland where anger and frustration and repression soon lead to bloodshed... And on the Indian sub-continent a newly arrived British leader set on imperial expansion soon gets to work. This is episode 26 of the Napoleonic Quarterly - covering three months of empty Mediterranean horizons - bad news for the British and very good news for the French. [11:50] - Rachel Blackman-Rogers on Nelson's Mediterranean search as Bonaparte's fleet moves slowly towards Egypt [30:18] - Ciaran McDonnell on the Irish Rebellion [52:45] - Josh Provan on the British in India And from [1:09:40] Alexander Mikaberidze and Charles Esdaile size up the situation midway through 1798, with all eyes on the French fleet disembarking at Alexandria.

He was on the quarterdeck when he realized it. The smoke was thick between the two ships and it was hard to make any sense of the melee. His men pushed forward against the other crew as grenades and musket fire came from the masts. The sun was low on the horizon and the impending dark blended into a sea of undefined movement. The world was noise. One of the enemy sailors slashed at him. He parried the blow and drove the man's sword into the deck of the ship. Turning the blade upward, he cut across the man's gut and kicked him aside as he focused on the fight in front of him. The chaos slowed and his senses focused, giving him almost perfect clarity. He immediately turned to his second in command and ordered them to keep engaging. He jumped onto the railing of his ship to bypass the hordes of men and ran across it before jumping back to his deck and going into his quarters. He burst into the main room and peered out the window to the other ship, gauged the distance, and then broke the windows of the cabin until all the shards were gone. He backed up, took a deep breath, and ran to the window. Jumping through it, he crashed through the glass of the enemy's captain's quarters. Immediately after hitting the carpet, he did a forward roll, sprang to his feet, and surveyed the room. After a moment, he saw the other man standing in the corner, his eyes wide, his sword drawn. He drew his own sword and pointed the tip at the man in the corner. “You sir, are a coward.” Not another word was spoken. And when he left the cabin and entered into the wider battle, he left nothing behind. Join us as we teach you about Horatio Nelson, his life, achievements, and why he is considered one of the greatest heroes in British (and world) history. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/15minutehistory/support

Freak Ships of the Nineteenth Century is the title of a pamphlet written in 1966 by J. Guthrie, then an employee of the maritime classification society Lloyds Register. It was written for private circulation amongst the staff. Guthrie realised that, as the premier classification society Lloyds Register were able to produce a very good technical description of vessels, often directly from plans, reports and records of conventional ships. But this left a gap in their knowledge - 'But what of the unorthodox ships, the rebels from tradition: those monsters and freaks of the nautical world which, throughout the whole of the 19th century attained transient fame (or notoriety) before disappearing from the scene for ever?'. Guthrie's pamphlet aimed to answer that question by exploring some of the most radical nautical designs of the nineteenth century.This episode, the last of four, looks at the unique iron vessel that was designed and built to bring 'Cleopatra's Needle' - a 3500 year-old, 224-ton, 21-metre high ancient Egyptian obelisk made of granite - from Alexandria to London, where it still can be seen on the banks of the Thames at Embankment. This is the remarkable story of how it got there.For the Egyptians, obelisks were sacred objects for the sun god, Ra; it's thought that the shape symbolised a single ray of sun. They were placed in pairs at the entrances of temples, so that the first and last light of day touched their peaks. The obelisk that became known as Cleopatra's needle was made around 1450 BC, in Heliopolis in what is now a part of Cairo. It was moved to Alexandria by the Romans in 12 BC, where it remained, lying on a beach, for almost two millennia.But in 1819, to commemorate Horatio Nelson's great naval victory over Napoleon in 1798 at the battle of the Nile, the Sultan of Egypt presented the obelisk to the government of Great Britain….but with no suggestion as to how the British might claim their reward. In Ebay terms – this was ‘collection only'. Unsurprisingly, The obelisk stayed where it was.Fifty-eight years later a Scottish traveller and soldier in the British army, James Alexander, heard of the story and became interested in the challenge that Cleopatra's needle posed to a mighty maritime Empire. He convinced a wealthy and philanthropic businessman, William Wilson, to fund a project to move the 224-ton granite obelisk, 3000 miles to London – a seemingly impossible task. Enter John Dixon, a talented and energetic civil engineer from Durham, who had made his name building the first railway in China. Dixon's solution was to make a pre-fabricated iron vessel in London; take it in pieces to Alexandria and assemble it around the obelisk. The iron tube with the obelisk nestling inside, would then be towed back to London. The journey was nearly a disaster...To go with this audio episode we have created a video animation which explains the history of the needle, the design of the Cleopatra, and her fraught journey to London.
