CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains discussions about sex which may not be suitable for children.Napoleon Bonaparte is one of the few commanders in history to be known for his capacity as a fierce fighter and a passionate lover. His romance with Joséphine de Beauharnais is one of the greatest in history and we know the intimate details about it because of the hundreds of passionate letters he sent to her over the years, some more explicit than others... In episode 3 of Dan's Napoleon series, he's joined by sex historian and host of Betwixt the Sheets podcast Dr Kate Lister to explore another side of the French commander- his complex attitude towards sex, his obsession with Josephine and the way their relationship coloured his emotional life.Meanwhile, Josephine was an incredible figure in her own right; she was a courtesan to rich men - glamorous and intelligent with an elegant figure and magnetic aura. When she met Napoleon in 1795, she was older than him and having had a number of strategic affairs with influential political figures, clever in her means of securing a stable life for her two children. Ridley Scott's 'Napoleon' is in cinemas on November 22nd.Produced by Mariana Des Forges, Charlotte Long and edited by Dougal Patmore.Don't miss out on the best offer in history!

Next Best Picture Podcast

For this week's second podcast review, I am joined by Dan Bayer & Tom O'Brien. Today, we are reviewing the newest film from director Ridley Scott, "Napoleon," starring Joaquin Phoenix, Vanessa Kirby, and Tahar Rahim. Based on the rise and fall of Napoleon Bonaparte, the historical epic contains large battle scenes, petulant behavior, coup d'états, marital drama, and enough Joaquin Phoenix memes to last us a lifetime. The film is an odd mixture of tones, creative ambition, and misfires. What did we ultimately think of it, though? Tune in as we discuss Scott's direction, David Scrape's screenplay, the performances from Phoenix and Kirby, the drama, the action, the comedy(?!), its awards season potential, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review.

During the Napoleonic Wars, 18th-century leaders in Europe quickly decided the best way to beat Napoleon Bonaparte was to retreat and not meet him on the battlefield at all. He was head and shoulders above the other commanders of the day. So why did it go so spectacularly wrong for him at Waterloo?In episode two of his series, Dan delves into who Napoleon was as a military commander- what made him so effective on the battlefield, as a leader of men and conqueror of lands. He's joined by military historian Dr Zack White, as they dissect the Siege of Toulon in 1793 in which Napoleon proved himself a commander of extraordinary promise. They assess his strategy and tactics at Austerlitz, his incredible relationship with his men on the battlefield, and how the later years of his life were mired by internal turmoil that soon clouded his once precise military reasoning.Produced by Mariana Des Forges, Freddy Chick and edited by Dougal Patmore.Don't miss out on the best offer in history!

Napoleon is admired as one of the greatest strategists ever; he won most of his battles and dictated the terms of the peace treaties that ended his individual wars. Yet in the end, he was defeated, and his empire fell apart. So how great a strategist was he really? Napoleon's ‘system of war' remained the point of reference for generations, interpreted and publicised by Jomini and Clausewitz. Professor Alan Forrest joins Beatrice and Paul for this episode. A graduate of Aberdeen and Oxford, he was formerly the Chair of Modern History at York University, where he taught from 1989 to 2012. A prolific author, he is the general editor of a 2023 three-volume Cambridge History of the Napoleonic Wars.

This Thursday is the release day for Ridley Scott's epic-sounding new film Napoleon, all about the life and times of the French general and emperor Napoleon Bonaparte ... But early screenings of the film around the world have kicked up a BIT of consternation from historians who feel Scott has played a bit fast and loose with the historical record in the film ... One scene in particular which is part of the film's trailer shows Napoleon ordering cannons to fire at the Pyramids in Egypt ... which didn't actually happen. But, of course, directors have been taking liberties with historical events for the sake of narrative since the advent of film itself: so, when is it OK, and when is it not?

Napoleon Bonaparte is considered one of the greatest military leaders of all time. He is often mentioned alongside names such as Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar, but whereas they existed thousands of years ago, he died only 200 years ago. And as such, his legacy is perhaps still being shaped more so than other comparatively more ancient figures. So what is the legacy of Napoleon? What are some of the preconceptions that have permeated into modern thought? Beyond his military achievement, what made Napoleon such a memorable figure?

Dess framgång innebar att Frankrikes, och med det hela Europas, historia tog en ny riktning. Vi förklarar vem Napoleon var, hur han hade hade vunnit ryktbarhet och fördjupar oss i vad som skedde några dramatiska höstdagar för 224 år sedan.Glöm inte bort att stryka under 22 november i era kalendrar och boka era till biljetter till Napoleon redan idag!---Läslista:Stuart, Andrea, Joséphine: fransmännens kejsarinna, Prisma, Stockholm, 2006Lindqvist, Herman, Napoleon, [Ny utg.], Norstedt, Stockholm, 2006Harrison, Dick, Franska revolutionen, Historiska Media, Lund, 2020Zweig, Stefan, Fouché, hertig d'Otrante: en politikers porträtt, Skoglund, Stockholm, 1948 Lyssna på våra avsnitt fritt från reklam: https://plus.acast.com/s/historiepodden.

Deel 2 van 2: een Zweedse tandarts betreedt het strijdtoneel en is vastbesloten om te bewijzen dat Napoleon werd vermoord. Hoe? Dankzij een lok haar... -  Op 5 mei 1821 overlijdt op Sint Helena na een lang ziekbed de voormalige Franse keizer, Napoleon Bonaparte. Na zijn dood wordt zijn lichaam op de biljart tafel gelegd, wachtend op de autopsie. De ploeg dokters, bestaande uit een man of acht, is het min of meer eens dat Napoleon leed aan een vergrote lever, een maagzweer had en een gezwel had groeien in zijn maag. Zowel de vader als de zus van Napoleon waren aan kanker overleden dus de doktoren grepen gretig deze oorzaak aan. Een erfelijke aandoening, niemands schuld. Hupsakeetjes, begraven. Maar Napoleon liet zich zelfs na zijn dood niet het zwijgen opleggen. In zijn testament schreef hij: "ik sterf voor mijn tijd vermoord door de Britse oligarchie en haar ingehuurde moordenaars." Was het dan toch... Moord? Ik las voor deze aflevering het uiterst vermakelijke A question of evidence van Colin Evans. Aanrader, geef dit boek aan jezelf of aan een geliefde waargebeurde misdaad fanaat.  En nu we het toch over vermakelijke boeken hebben om te geven aan geliefden: mijn boek De moord op mr Jacques Wijsman is het perfecte Sinterklaas cadeau. Al was het maar omdat er van alles rijmt op 'moord' en 'trein'. (Ontspoord en venijn, bijvoorbeeld...). Daarbij is mijn boek al vergeleken met Richand Osman's Thursday Murder Club - ik ben vereerd - en zelfs met de grote Agatha Christie. Ik kan tevreden sterven. Koop dit boek! Te bestellen bij Bol.com, Bruna.nl maar natuurlijk ook bij je lokale boekhandel en die kan het goed gebruiken.

Napoleon Bonaparte neprestáva fascinovať odbornú i laickú verejnosť ani po dvoch storočiach. Asi niet človeka na svete, ktorý by aspoň nepočul jeho meno a nepoznal by aspoň malý útržok z jeho životného príbehu. Tí, ktorí podľahli kúzlu tejto historickej legendy si však neprestávajú klásť viaceré otázky. Bol geniálnym stratégom, ktorý od základov zmenil podobu vojny? Bol vizionárom a štátnikom, alebo naopak bol „vrahom“ francúzskej revolúcie? Bol krvilačným tyranom? Bolo jeho cieľom zjednotiť a premeniť Európu, alebo sledoval len svoje vlastné a bezhraničné ambície? Podať odpovede na tieto a ďalšie otázky si za cieľ kladie kniha francúzskeho historika a spisovateľa Thierryho Lentza s príslovečným názvom Napoleon – generál, mýtus, štátnik. Sto otázok a odpovedí, ktorá sa v novembri objaví aj na slovenskom knižnom trhu v preklade od vydavateľstva MAMAŠ. Do kín navyše mieri historická dráma Napoleon od britského režiséra Ridleyho Scota. Napoleonom tak trochu budeme najbližší mesiac či dva žiť všetci, ktorí milujeme históriu. Jaro Valent z časopisu Historická revue sa rozpráva s historikom a zároveň prekladateľom spomínanej knihy Oliverom Zajacom z Historického ústavu SAV. – Podporte podcasty denníka SME kúpou prémiového predplatného a užívajte si podcasty bez reklamy na webe SME.sk alebo v mobilnej aplikácii SME.sk.

William Doyle is Emeritus Professor of History at the University of Bristol. As the author of the Oxford History of the French Revolution he is also the rescuer of many an undergraduate essay crisis. William's new book Napoleon At Peace, however, sees him examine Bonaparte's performance in the top job in those first years of the 19th century. Its subtitle, 'How To End A Revolution', gives you a sense of the scale of the task he faced Prof Doyle on Bonaparte: "What hit me is the sheer ability of the man - how able he actually was, how many balls he was able to keep in the air at any particular time. Whatever you think of him morally - and he's a very nasty type in all sorts of ways - nevertheless, the sheer ability of the man cannot fail to be impressive." How much of the Revolution was over by the time Napoleon Bonaparte came to power? Prof Doyle: "None of it."

Within the turmoil of the French Revolution, Napoleon Bonaparte stands out to his military superiors, first by defeating the English at Toulon, then by putting down a royalist mob in Paris when outnumbered four to one, with a “whiff of grapeshot”. Having finally shaken off the humiliation of the failed invasion of Sardinia which began his career, he is made Commander of the Interior, and rewarded with command of the Army of Italy. Has the Corsican rebel finally given up on his roots, and embraced French ideals of brotherhood?

In 1798, young French general Napoleon Bonaparte entered Egypt with a veteran army and a specialist group of savants—scientists, engineers, and artists—his aim being not just conquest, but the rediscovery of the lost Nile kingdom. A year later, in the ruins of an old fort in the small port of Rosetta, the savants made a startling discovery: a large, flat stone, inscribed in Greek, demotic Egyptian, and ancient hieroglyphics. This was the Rosetta Stone, key to the two-thousand-year mystery of hieroglyphs, and to Egypt itself. Two years later, French forces retreated before the English and Ottoman armies, but would not give up the stone. Caught between the opposing generals at the siege of Alexandria, British special agents went in to find the Rosetta Stone, rescue the French savants, and secure a fragile peace treaty. Jonathan Downs' book Discovery at Rosetta: Revealing Ancient Egypt (American University in Cairo Press, 2020) uses French, Egyptian, and English eyewitness accounts to tell the complete story of the discovery, decipherment, and capture of the Rosetta Stone, investigating the rivalries and politics of the time, and the fate of the stone today. Madhumanti Datta completed her PhD in Linguistics from the University of Southern California, USA. Her primary research area is the syntax of human languages, focussing on what possible and impossible structures in human language tell us about how linguistic structures are built, how meaning is represented and about the knowledge of grammar that speakers of a language intuitively possess. She is interested in issues surrounding language, both from the social and cultural perspective as well as from the biological perspective of language as a window into human cognition.
