Our recap episodes, which offer a synthesis of our 1792-1804 coverage one year at a time, have reached 1799 - a year in which Napoleon Bonaparte achieves an astonishing turnaround in fortunes which ends with him in power. Chris Sloan talks presenter Alex Stevenson through specific key clips he's picked out from our old episodes grouped around four themes which, we argue, help frame the period and shape our understanding of it in a whole new way. We hope this will provide a helpful refresh for longstanding listeners - whilst at the same time offering an 'entry ramp' to the podcast for those who want to get up to speed relatively easily before we crash full-speed into the intensity of the Napoleonic Wars.This episode covers a 12-month period in which Bonaparte's failed Syrian campaign leads him to attempt the desperate gamble of a return to France - which dramatically pays off when, somehow, he emerges as the country's ruler after the coup of Brumaire. That is the culmination of a remarkable year of fighting in Italy and Switzerland, with Russian heroics under the leadership of Suvorov and gritty French defence led by Massena. There really is so much going on - from the Anglo-Russian invasion of Holland to the fall of Naples, from the siege of Malta to the diplomacy of the Second Coalition - what a year 1799 truly is.

Milena Contini, Michela Martignoni"La bella Costa"Solferino Libriwww.solferinolibri.it«Aveva un nuovo nome: Antonietta Costa. Lo avrebbe sempre pronunciato con fierezza. Diamine, si ripeteva, era sposata da venti giorni e già si sentiva una Costa fino al midollo!» Quando la sedicenne Antonietta rifiuta un matrimonio combinato organizzato dai genitori per sposare invece Giacomo Costa, molto più anziano di lei, in tanti prevedono un'unione infelice. Si sbagliano. Quello che li lega, infatti, è un amore solido e passionale, destinato a durare per anni. Ma in seguito alla decisione di Giacomo di ritirarsi in eremitaggio a Quinto, la vita di sua moglie si fa avventurosa. Con accanto alleati preziosi come il fedele servo Gabrio, amico d'infanzia, e Rosalba, l'ostetrica che ha fatto nascere i suoi figli, Antonietta dapprima deve fronteggiare da sola le insistenze dei corteggiatori e gli intrighi della vita nobiliare, e subito dopo il terribile assedio di Genova del 1800, durante il quale si troverà a lottare fianco a fianco con il generale Massena, vanamente impegnato a salvare la città. Mentre i fermenti risorgimentali accendono i cuori, la «Bella Costa» si appassiona alla politica, raccoglie attorno a sé un salotto culturale tra i più vivaci della città, frequentando Ugo Foscolo e Vincenzo Monti, e, incurante del rischio, collabora con Giuseppe Mazzini. Per tutta la sua vita lunga, piena e libera, sognerà una Genova più forte e un'Italia più unita.La saga di una donna che ha vissuto il suo tempo da protagonista, sullo sfondo di una città caleidoscopica, intrisa di colori, di vento e di leggende, in un'epoca traboccante d'energia vitale e di feroci contraddizioni: magia e scienza, guerra e pace, libertà e schiavitù. Salvezza e perdizione.Milena Contini è docente di Letteratura italiana.

You can send me a text if you have a comment or questionThe 1810 and 1811 campaigns in Iberia were defined by an absence- Napoleon's absence.  Napoleon had won the battle of Wagram in July of 1809.  This was at once a decisive defeat of the Austrian army, and the biggest land battle in European history up to that point.Obviously, the flow of men was out of Spain, into Germany during 1809.  But after the Peace of Schönbrunn is signed in October, the flow can begin in the opposite direction.  Napoleon should come, plans to come.  He has laid out an operation where he, with elements of the Imperial Guard, would invade Portugal with 100,000 men, and overwhelm the British defense, retaking Portugal.And interestingly, Wellington is informing Castlereagh that the French would need 100,000 men to drive him out of Portugal by this point.  So great minds are thinking alike.And yet Napoleon did not go. Massena is picked to lead the invasion of Portugal.  French assumptions about what would happen do not pan out.

Join us as we welcome William Massena back to Keeping Time podcast. Fresh from Geneva Watch Days, join us as we catch up with William, one of the most knowledgeable and highly respected authorities on all things watches. With a breadth of knowledge spanning the entire history of watchmaking, the former CEO of Antiquorum Watches (auction house) and Managing Director of Time Zone offers a perspective and level of expertise few can challenge. The conversation begins with a deep-dive into the newest product launch from Massena Lab, a striking and unique vintage-inspired, modern take on a classic Regatta Yacht Timer. William explains the unique design approach and discusses his partner for this latest collaboration. The new watch is the first piece launched by a new watch company, ALBISHORN, with a very interesting design-ethos. The patented movement is just one noteworthy element of the new watch. Following discussion of William's eponymous brand, Massena Lab, we switch gears to discuss the recent Geneva Watch Days (GWD). Created just a couple of years ago, during the pandemic, William fully describes the purpose behind the show, the founders of the event and the experience of attending. Let's just say that any watch event that can be enjoyed wearing shorts and flip-flops whilst sipping Rosé is surely worthy of serious consideration.  William brings the show to life for our listeners and fully describes the vibe, experience and intentions of this important newcomer to the watch-industry calendar. The newest GWD releases are discussed. Of course, being a conversation between watch nerds, William Massena and Jeremy Oster, the conversation meanders and explores side-topics with a great detour into unraveling the history of the modern Breguet brand (pre-Swatch Group) and Daniel Roth. The conversation further delves into the early history and importance of FP Journe and Vianney Halter and the connection with Breguet. Incredibly, this fascinating conversational diversion occurs whilst discussing Konstantin Chaykin's record breaking "ThinKing" watch. As always, the conversation with William is natural, free-flowing and filled with information and insight that will be new, even for the most knowledgeable listeners. We hope that you enjoy this conversation as much as we enjoy creating Keeping Time Podcast. Visit Keeping Time with Oster Watches blog for more podcast and photos. Visit osterjewelers.com
