Podcast appearances and mentions of Napoleon III

Nous sommes le 27 juillet 1863, à Vichy. La petite station thermale reçoit un hôte de marque : l'empereur en personne ! Napoléon III est venu prendre les eaux et il est en galante compagnie. Il y a sa maîtresse, la ravissante Marguerite Bellanger, et l'impératrice Eugénie. Tout semble donc aller pour le mieux dans le meilleur des mondes. C'est sans compter un incident qui survient lors d'une promenade de l'Empereur et de son épouse. L'incident a la forme d'un petit chien, tout mignon, qui semble avoir reconnu celui que Victor Hugo appellera « Napoléon le petit ». Un incident somme toute assez anodin, qui ne doit pas avoir une portée politique essentielle sauf que le clébard est celui de Marguerite, la favorite. Eugénie est piquée, comprend tout et le soir même quitte les Vichyssois et les Vichyssoises, scandalisée par cette démonstration inattendue de l'infidélité de son mari. Les billettistes de l'époque, les chroniqueurs du temps vont s'en donner à cœur joie ! L'anecdote fait le tour des salons. Tout le monde, la presse, la bonne société des grands hôtels, les habitués des sources et des casinos se régalent. Il faut dire que chacun sait que le toutou en question est connu pour réserver ses familiarités aux amants de sa maîtresse, courtisane comme quelques autres dont nous allons suivre les pas… Avec nous : Marc Lemonnier, journaliste « La petite histoire des courtisanes » éd. Jourdan.

24 juni 1859 inleddes Slaget vid Solferino mellan de allierade franska och sardinsk-piemontesiska arméerna mot den österrikiska armén. Slaget utvecklades på ett förvirrat och bit för bit sätt fram till lunchtid. Efter extremt kostsamma strider bröt fransmännen igenom det österrikiska centrumet på eftermiddagen. Mindre handlingar, inklusive en kraftfull fördröjning av den österrikiska generalen Ludwig von Benedek, fortsatte fram till mörkrets inbrott, vilket gjorde att fransmännen och piemonteserna var för utmattade för att förfölja de besegrade österrikarna.De österrikiska förlusterna var enorma, med 14 000 man dödade och sårade och över 8 000 saknade eller fångade. Franco-Piemontesiska förlorade 15 000 dödade och sårade samt över 2 000 saknade eller fångar. Dessa tunga förluster bidrog till Napoleon III:s beslut att söka vapenvilan med Österrike som i huvudsak avslutade det andra italienska självständighetskriget.I denna repris av Militärhistoriepodden samtalar Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved om Slaget vid Solferino.Dessa blodiga händelser inspirerade Henri Dunant att leda rörelsen för att etablera Internationella Röda Korset. I dag finns det flera minnesmärken över händelserna som omger slagen, inklusive ett museum som visar uniformer och vapen från tiden och en krypta som innehåller benen från tusentals offer.Dunant kunde aldrig glömma vad han såg och 1862 skrev han ner sina minnen från slaget, vilka nu finns tillgängliga i en ny svensk utgåva: Europas bortglömda blodbad. Minnen från Solferino. Boken var en enorm framgång för den redan förmögna författaren. Men framför allt kan det sägas att det aktivt bidrog till grundandet av Röda Korset och till den banbrytande Genèvekonventionen av 1864 om vård av de sårade i krig och skydd av civilbefolkningen.Den mest skrämmande aspekten av Dunants observationer är inte vittnesmålet om själva slaget, utan "vården" av de sjuka och sårade efteråt. Hans beskrivningar av de primitiva behandlingsmetoderna, som mest bestod av opraktiserade amputationer och oändligt lidande och törst, är hjärtskärande och gruvsamma i sina detaljer.Bild: Napoleon III instruerar sina vakter under marskalk Regnaud att storma SolferinoAdolphe Yvon - Eget arbete, Wikipedia, Public Domain.

The Republican Fire: Manet, Gambetta, and the War That Declared a French Republic. Sebastian Smee discusses how Édouard Manet's family wanted him to pursue law or the Navy, but he became a passionate, anti-autocratic Republican inspired by the 1848 uprisings. Manet established himself as an activist painter, creating works protesting Napoleon III's policies. Léon Gambetta became Manet's friend and the leading moderate Republican lawyer. The Franco-Prussian War of 1870 began under Napoleon III, but the French were crushed. When Napoleon III surrendered and went into exile, a Republic was declared in Paris. The victory was bittersweet: Paris was immediately surrounded by Prussian troops, and the entire male population joined the National Guard. However, France was defeated, leading to a humiliating surrender in January 1871. The trauma was reflected subtly in the Impressionists' art.

The Department of Agriculture said more than 41 million Americans could lose their SNAP food benefits on Nov. 1 if Congress doesn't act soon. Meanwhile, flights were delayed nationwide on Sunday as a shortage of air traffic controllers slowed travel from Los Angeles to Newark. The shutdown is forcing controllers to work without pay, and officials warn more disruptions could follow.The United States and China have agreed on a framework for a new trade deal as President Donald Trump continues his Asia trip. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said upcoming talks between Trump and China's Xi Jinping will also touch on global issues, from fentanyl to the Russia–Ukraine war. Meanwhile, Chinese bombers flew near Taiwan in what Beijing called “confrontation drills”—just days ahead of Trump's scheduled meeting with the Chinese leader in Korea.French police arrested two men on Saturday night in connection with the theft of royal jewels from the Louvre in Paris. Police identified the two suspects last week and followed them in hopes of finding the stolen jewels. The two were arrested when officers realized they were about to flee the country. Police are now searching for the two remaining suspects. The stolen collection includes a diamond tiara and a necklace once worn by Empress Eugénie, the wife of Napoleon III.

Arrests have been made following last week's Louvre heist. Thieves stole an array of valuable jewels, worth $177million NZD, including a crown belonging to the wife of Napoleon III. Newstalk ZB reporter in Paris Catherine Field told Mike Hosking that the thieves arrested were not masterminds, and were known to police. 'They knew that these two were part of the gang, but they knew that they weren't the mastermind.' LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Police in France believe priceless antique jewelry stolen from the Louvre Museum in Paris on Sunday could be broken into constituent jewels, re-cut and sold.法国警方表示，周日在巴黎卢浮宫博物馆失窃的珍贵古董珠宝，恐被拆解成零散宝石、重新切割后变卖。The building remained closed on Monday as the investigation continued. Prosecutors said four thieves used battery-powered disccutters or mini chain saws to enter the world's most-visited museum during the daylight raid, using a mechanized cherry-picker to gain access and two scooters to escape.目前案件调查仍在进行，卢浮宫于周一继续闭馆。检察官透露，此次白天劫案中，四名窃贼使用电池驱动的角磨机或迷你链锯闯入这座全球参观人数最多的博物馆。They made off with nine extremely valuable items from France's "royal jewels", including diadems, necklaces, earrings and brooches made in the 19th century for members of the royal family and imperial rulers.他们借助机械升降平台进入馆内，事后乘坐两辆摩托车逃窜，共盗走9件极具价值的法国“王室珠宝”，包括19世纪为王室成员及帝国统治者打造的王冠、项链、耳环和胸针。One of the items, a crown made for Napoleon III's wife, the Empress Eugenie, was apparently dropped as the thieves escaped. The ornate gold piece featuring 1,354 diamonds and 56 emeralds was damaged during the theft, the French TV station TF1 and the newspaper Le Parisien reported.据法国电视一台（TF1）及《巴黎人报》报道，窃贼逃跑时疑似遗落一件为拿破仑三世之妻欧仁妮皇后打造的皇冠。这件镶嵌1354颗钻石与56颗祖母绿的华丽金质皇冠，在失窃过程中已受损。The minister of culture, Rachida Dati, told TF1 that investigators have video of the thieves entering the ornate, gold-gilded Galerie d'Apollon, on the first floor of the museum, "calmly" before smashing display cases.法国文化部长拉茜达・达蒂向电视一台表示，调查人员掌握了窃贼进入博物馆一楼阿波罗镀金长廊的监控画面。画面显示，窃贼“镇定自若”地进入长廊后，随即砸毁展柜。They did not use violence and appeared "very professional" and "experienced", she said.画面显示，窃贼“镇定自若”地进入长廊后，随即砸毁展柜。她指出，窃贼未使用暴力，看起来“专业性极强”且“经验丰富”。The interior minister, Laurent Nunez, told France Inter radio that they moved "very, very fast" and that the heist was over in less than seven minutes, between about 9:30 am and about 9:40 am.法国内政部长洛朗・努内兹接受法国国际广播电台采访时称，窃贼行动“极其迅速”，整个劫案在上午9时30分至9时40分之间完成，耗时不足7分钟。The stolen items were "priceless" and "of immeasurable heritage value", Nunez said.他强调，被盗物品“价值连城”，且“具有不可估量的遗产价值”。The thieves told security guards to evacuate the area while they opened two glass display cases, police said. The Ministry of Culture confirmed that museum workers correctly followed procedure and did not attempt to tackle the thieves.警方表示，窃贼要求安保人员撤离该区域，随后打开两个玻璃展柜。法国文化部证实，博物馆工作人员严格遵守流程，未试图与窃贼对抗。Arthur Brand, an art recovery expert, told CNN that the theft amounts to a "national disaster" for France."These are the crown jewels from Napoleon, his wife and his successors. So these are the natural pride of France. It's a great loss."艺术品追回专家亚瑟・布兰德向美国有线电视新闻网（CNN）表示，此次失窃对法国而言堪称“国家灾难”。“这些珠宝属于拿破仑、其妻子及继任者，是法国天然的骄傲，此次失窃是巨大损失。”Jordan Bardella, leader of France's far-right National Rally party, put the blame at the foot of the government, writing on X: "The Louvre is a global symbol of our culture. This robbery, which allowed thieves to steal jewels from the French crown, is an unbearable humiliation for our country. How far will the decay of the state go?"法国极右翼政党“国民联盟”领袖乔丹・巴尔德拉将矛头指向政府，他在社交平台X（原推特）上发文称：“卢浮宫是全球文化象征，窃贼盗走法国王室珠宝的这起劫案，是我国难以承受的耻辱。国家的衰败还要持续到何种地步？”Nathalie Goulet, a member of the French Senate's finance committee, told the BBC that "we are all disappointed and angry"."(It is) difficult to understand how it happened so easily," she said.法国参议院财政委员会成员娜塔莉・古莱向英国广播公司（BBC）表示，“所有人都感到失望与愤怒”，“很难理解为何劫案能如此轻易发生”。Justice Minister Gerald Darmanin agreed, telling France Inter, "People were able to park a furniture hoist in the middle of Paris, get people up it in several minutes to grab priceless jewels and give France a terrible image."法国司法部长热拉尔德・达尔马宁对此表示认同，他向法国国际广播电台坦言：“有人竟能在巴黎市中心停放一台升降平台，几分钟内载人进入博物馆盗走珍贵珠宝，给法国抹上了污点。”brazen/ˈbreɪzn/adj.胆大妄为的；厚颜无耻的heist/haɪst/n.抢劫；盗窃ornate/ɔːˈneɪt/adj.华丽的；装饰繁复的diadem/ˈdaɪədem/n.王冠；冕

It's Tuesday, October 21st, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson                    Xi Jinping fired 9 Chinese military commanders China's communist system is in turmoil, as the defense ministry announces the removal of nine very senior military commanders from duty, including a number two general, He Weidong. Since 2023, the communist leader, Xi Jinping, has administered the removal of dozens of senior officers. These moves signal a factionalism from within the party and the Chinese military. Experts question whether Jinping will survive in his position. This week, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China is holding its Fourth Plenary Session where leaders will work out a Five-Year Plan. The outcome of this meeting will reveal Jinping's standing in party politics. Keep in mind: God is in control. Haggai 2:22 says, “The word of the Lord came unto Haggai … I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms. … I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, everyone by the sword of his brother.” Pakistani pastor survives murder plot A Pakistani pastor survived a murder attempt in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, on the morning of Sunday, September 21, reports Barnabas Aid. Pastor Kamran Naz had been traveling by bus, accompanied by his mother, from his home in Gujranwala to lead a church service in Islamabad when he was attacked by two unidentified gunmen. One bullet wounded the pastor in the right leg. A second bullet narrowly missed his head. The attackers then fled on a motorcycle as some church members who were present swiftly came to the pastor's aid and contacted emergency services. Pastor Kamran had previously notified the police of numerous death threats. He was warned to stop ministering at the church or face the consequences.  Pastor Imran Amanat, leader of the Christian advocacy group LEAD Ministries Pakistan, said, “We will not be intimidated or silenced. We demand that the authorities immediately ensure the protection of Christian leaders and hold the criminals accountable. If the government continues to ignore these threats, it becomes complicit in the persecution.” According to Open Doors, Pakistan is the eighth most dangerous country worldwide for Christians. Swedish parents lost custody over kids' required church attendance Certain European nations have now been recognized for their systemic violation of parental rights, especially if the parents happen to be Christian.  Alliance Defending Freedom International is working on a case in Sweden, where parents have lost custody of their children under charges of “religious extremism.” The parents had simply restricted the phone use of their teen children and required attendance at church meetings. After three years of attempts to regain custody, Daniel and Bianca Samson are appealing their case to the European Court of Human Rights. Recently, the High Court has already condemned countries like Spain, Portugal, Italy, Croatia, and Romania for systemic violations in family separation and child welfare cases. Iran threatens Israel Iran's Ayatollah Ali Khamenei took to social media (X) yesterday, effectively taunting the American government, threatening Israel, and asserting independence for the nation's nuclear program. He asked, “What authority do you, Americans, have to dictate what a country should or shouldn't do if it possesses nuclear industry? What position do you hold in the world? How is it any of America's business whether Iran has nuclear capabilities and nuclear industry or not? .. . The U.S. President boasts that they've bombed and destroyed Iran's nuclear industry. Very well, in your dreams!” Trump urges Putin and Zelenskyy to end the war President Donald Trump is urging Ukraine's leader, Volodymyr Zelenskyy to end the war on Russia's terms.  He warned Zelenskyy of Russian President Vladimir Putin's threat to “destroy” Ukraine it there is no agreement.  The Financial Times described the meeting as a “shouting match”, with Trump throwing maps in the room, and “cursing all the time.” Japan greenlights Morning After Pill Japan has just approved the abortifacient drug known as the over-the-counter “morning after” pill. Japan also approved the RU-486 abortion kill pill back in April 2023. Japan recorded 686,000 births in 2024. That's down from 762,000 in 2023, and down from 2,000,000 in 1975. Jeremiah 32:35 speaks of this child sacrifice.  “They built the high places of Baal in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, to offer up their sons and daughters to Molech, though I did not command them, nor did it enter into my mind, that they should do this abomination.” Day 21 of U.S. government shutdown The U.S. government shutdown is rounding its 21st day. With 900,000 employees furloughed, the shutdown represents the most severe in American history.  Indeed, 7,850 flights were delayed due to air traffic control staffing shortages on Sunday.  According to TheHill.com, 13,000 air traffic controllers and 50,000 TSA agents are presently working without pay. Housing bubble has burst The housing bubble has burst in multiple cities across the United States. The median house values in Oakland, California and Austin, Texas have dropped by 24% since the peak in 2022. Significant declines have also been reported in New Orleans, San Francisco, Fort Myers, Florida, and Denver, Colorado, reports WolfStreet.com. Gold and silver hit new record highs Metals continued their journey upwards and onwards in Monday's market activity. Gold hit $4,350 per ounce and silver hit $52 and change per ounce, reports Reuters. Trump's Education Dept. funds conservative ideology at colleges The Trump Education Department is offering preferential funding for those universities willing to bend more conservative. Only Vanderbilt, the University of Arizona, and the University of Texas at Austin have embraced to the idea out of the nine universities approached with the proposal, reports Breitbart.  MIT, Brown University, the University of Pennsylvania, and the University of Southern California have all rejected the Trump administration's encouragement to abolish their departments opposed to conservative ideas.  Major jewel heist at Louvre in Paris, France And finally, a team of four thieves broke into the Louvre Museum in Paris over the weekend. They stole priceless jewels dating back to the 19th Century, reports Reuters. Among the stolen items were a tiara and brooch belonging to Empress Eugénie, wife of Napoleon III, an emerald necklace and a pair of emerald earrings from Empress Marie Louise, Napolean's second wife, and a tiara, a necklace, and single earring from the sapphire set that belonged to Queen Marie-Amelie and Queen Hortense. (Also a brooch known as the "reliquary brooch” was taken).

In seven minutes, thieves entered the Louvre in Paris and made off with eight “priceless” jewels. The necklaces, earrings, brooches, and crowns has belonged to an array of 19th century royals, including Napoleon’s wife Marie-Amelie, and empress Eugenie, married to Napoleon III. The gang were organised, professionals, and had clearly scoped the world’s most visited gallery and knew exactly what they were after. But, after you’ve jumped the hurdles of security – what do you do with this highly recognisable royal regalia?

As promised in part 1 we started the podcast by talking about some of Napoleon III's many mistresses.  Women like Harriet Howard, the Brighton bootmaker's daughter, Virginia de Castiglione, sent by the Italians to seduce and spy on him (and welcomed with open arms!), Marguerite Bellanger and Louise de Mercy-Argenteau. His wife hated his infidelities but at least in the case of Louise she took comfort that she was a proper aristocrat!Moving on from the scandalous we talked about Napoleon III's solid achievements. Not least his success in the Crimean War which led to an alliance with the British and bringing France in from the diplomatic cold. And domestically the economy thrived and Paris was rebuilt.The great tragedy of Napoleon III's reign was that he was up against Bismark. Suffering from various illnesses (bladder stones in particular) his judgement was possibly affected. And Bismark tricks him into declaring war - with predictable results. His son survived him and oddly ended up fighting with the British Army in South Africa.

Een voormalig staatshoofd dat wegens 'criminele samenzwering' vijf jaar het cachot in moet. Zelfs een hoger beroep zal hij vanuit de cel moeten voeren. Het is in een moderne Europese democratie een unicum en zelfs in Frankrijk - dat gewend is aan schandalen - een historisch moment. Wat is er aan de hand? Waar werd Nicolas Sarkozy voor veroordeeld? Hoe is deze zaak aan het rollen gebracht? Wat zijn de consequenties voor hemzelf, zijn partner Carla Bruni en voor zijn opvolger, president Emmanuel Macron? En is dit allemaal wel zo uitzonderlijk in het licht van de politieke geschiedenis van Frankrijk? Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger duiken er in. *** Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken. Word ook vriend van de show! Heb je belangstelling om in onze podcast te adverteren of ons te sponsoren? Zend ons een mailtje en wij zoeken contact. *** Sarkozy werd aangeklaagd voor vier zaken. De rechter sprak hem vrij voor witwassen en corruptie, wegens gebrek aan bewijs. Maar 'criminele samenzwering' met Moammar Kadhafi’s regime in Libië kon hij toch niet afschuiven op anderen. Daarvoor is immers een chef nodig en daartoe strekte zelfs een telefoongesprek tussen de president en 'Le Guide' in Tripoli als bewijsstuk. De details zijn avontuurlijk en reiken diep in de historie van Frankrijk en de Levant. En opvallend genoeg: ze gaan terug naar Sarkozy's politieke loopbaan voordat hij staatshoofd werd. Dus naar de verwoede strijd om de opvolging in de schemering van de macht van zijn voorganger Jacques Chirac. Dat is een patroon, dat we veel vaker tegenkomen, zo blijkt. Bovenaan de top van de piramide van de Franse staat geraken, vereist ongekende machtswil, energie, brille, geldmiddelen, netwerken en gebrek aan scrupules. Sinds François I en Lodewijk XIV is de macht sterk gecentraliseerd en in veel opzichten absoluut. De revolutie en Napoleon versterkten die tendens veel meer dan dat ze gespreide democratische structuren introduceerden. De president is een gekozen monarch die rond nationale veiligheid en grandeur bijna ongeremd kan heersen. De verleidingen die macht te exploiteren kunnen maar heel weinigen weerstaan. Sarkozy's voorgangers deden dat soms met volle teugen. Als burgemeester van Parijs oefende Chirac al met het vastgoedimperium van de gemeente en de vele nepbanen die hij voor vertrouwelingen rond het stadhuis arrangeerde. Als president was hij de patroon van de boerenstand en botste in de Europese Raad op een eigenwijze ‘jeune ami néerlandais’. Zijn chique hobby als verzamelaar van verfijnde kunst uit Azië leverde hem wereldwijd nuttige relaties op en Parijs een museum van de buitencategorie. François Mitterrand was een visionair en geslepen machtsdier. Onder het mom van antiterrorisme zette hij in de kelder van zijn paleis een eigen beveiligingsteam aan het werk, buiten de regering om. Dit team moest zijn privégeheimen toedekken. Half Parijs werd daartoe afgeluisterd. Jean-Christophe Mitterrand was intussen op zakenreis en diplomatieke missies naar de cliëntenstaten in Afrika. 'Papamadit’ - Vader zei me - was zijn bijnaam. Net als de afluisteraars belandde hij vele jaren later in het gevang. Afrika werd ook de ondergang van Valéry Giscard d'Estaing. Ook hij had daar voor zijn presidentschap op avontuurlijke wijze middelen verzameld voor de campagne. Met dictator Jean-Bédel Bokassa joeg hij niet alleen op groot wild en handig te verzilveren diamanten, maar ook op charmant gezelschap. En later natuurlijk op Lady Di! Een groot contrast bood Georges Pompidou. Deze bijna vergeten staatsman - alleen het Musée Pompidou herinnert nog aan hem - was een toonbeeld van integriteit en toewijding. Charles de Gaulle maakte hem zijn politieke rechterhand en hij was een dynamo van daadkracht en modernisering. Voor Europa was zijn - ook al vergeten - visionaire beleid van grote betekenis. Elk kind kende hem als samensteller van het schoolboek over literatuur en poëzie. Het verdonkeremanen van zijn tragische ziekte was de enige smet op zijn bewind. Charles de Gaulle was een buitengewoon sober militair en zijn vrome Madame Yvonne was dat niet minder. Hij betaalde de stroom voor zijn kleine appartement in het Élysée uit eigen zak. Brandschoon in zichzelf was zijn wereldwijde dekolonisatiepolitiek wel de oorsprong van de Franse monetaire, economische en militaire greep op regimes in Afrika en de Levant. En voor die tijd? Ook toen waren er vele kleurrijke en zakelijk schimmige staatshoofden en hun families en milieu. Meest exuberant was wel president Bonaparte van 1848. Aan het eind van zijn termijn van vier jaar ritselde hij een referendum dat hem uitriep tot keizer Napoleon III. Zijn bewind was corrupt en repressief. Zoals zijn oom wilde hij een wereldheerser zijn. Een fataal avontuur in Mexico kostte hem zijn reputatie, Frankrijk vele doden en gaf Otto von Bismarck de zekerheid dat Pruisen de Fransen kon verpletteren. *** Verder kijken Docu: Sarkozy-Kadhafi: de alliantie die Frankrijk schokte *** Verder luisteren 284 - Quatorze Juillet: komt onder Macron een einde aan De Gaulles Vijfde Republiek? https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/5b8ac743-7ba2-44a8-b9b9-55356d361817 492 – Macrons Europese atoombom https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/74f5b1d5-4824-482a-a504-704904c8b021 419 - Europa kán sterven - Emmanuel Macrons visie op onze toekomst https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/329dfa50-7d58-4642-b29f-febc346d5a3f 204 - 14 juli 2021: Op weg naar de Franse presidentsverkiezingen https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/bdd23916-3c94-4700-a37e-c5a63516f64b 124 - 95 jaar Jacques Delors https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/76440368-b14d-4e31-8f95-fe5c9ee88830 45 – De liefdesbrieven van François Mitterrand https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/db3f639d-61a3-49c9-875a-3fd0f9ce521a 527 - Politici en hun boek.

Send us a textFrom exiled prince to emperor, Napoleon III's rise to power reads like a political thriller too wild to be true. Edward Shawcross tells the story of Napoleon Bonaparte's nephew, a man who attempted not one but two comically failed coups before finally succeeding in becoming Emperor of France.This episode explores Louis-Napoleon's bizarre childhood as the imperial nephew raised in Swiss exile, where his mother turned their home into a shrine to Napoleon while teaching him the arts of conspiracy and subterfuge. We cover his early revolutionary activities in Italy and his truly farcical coup attempts - including one featuring a live eagle purchased for a pound - that landed him in prison for life.Rather than breaking him, prison became Louis-Napoleon's "university," where he turned from a figure of fun into a serious political thinker with a programme of social reform. His escape disguised as a working man complete with platform shoes to change his height reads like fiction, yet it set the stage for his triumphant return during the 1848 Revolution.Ed explains how this seemingly delusional man understood mass politics better than any of his contemporaries, positioning himself as the people's champion against the political establishment. Through universal male suffrage, he won France's first direct presidential election before orchestrating a coup that established the Second Empire - proving that persistence, timing, and understanding the power of a name can overcome ridicule and failure.This is part 1 of a two part series. Part 2 will deal with his time as emperor and will not shy away from the more, er, sensational aspects of his life. In particular his extraordinarily large number of mistresses!

To the west of Paris, a castle watches over the Seine, rooted in the forest and in history. The Château de Saint-Germain-en-Laye represents a thousand years of power, art, and architecture. Birthplace of kings, hunting lodge, fortress, Renaissance palace, it became the cradle of classicism before being transformed into a museum, the National Archaeology Museum, inaugurated by Napoleon III.At the heart of the château is a jewel: the palatine chapel. A masterpiece of Rayonnant Gothic architecture, bathed in light, it inspired the Sainte-Chapelle in Paris.The castle was also a theater of war, splendor, and abandonment. Then resurrection.Today, it houses the National Archaeology Museum and preserves the memory of peoples and stones.A place of contrasts, between past grandeur and present vitality. A living monument, facing the ephemeral.Welcome to the history of architecture in all its majesty.Teaser image DR © Leonid AndronovSound: Com d'Archi podcast___If you like the podcast do not hesitate:. to subscribe so you don't miss the next episodes,. to leave us stars and a comment :-),. to follow us on Instagram @comdarchipodcast to find beautiful images, always chosen with care, so as to enrich your view on the subject.Nice week to all of you !

Thirty-three years after the fall of Napoleon Bonaparte’s Empire, his nephew (known as Napoleon III) became the first president of France before becoming emperor himself. Although he was a capable ruler and reformer, Napoleon III’s failed military campaigns, especially France’s loss to Germany in the Franco-Prussian War, led to his defeat, capture, and the fall of the Second French Empire and permanent eclipse of Germany in military power. Many historians have blamed Napoleon III’s wife for his failings. Eugénie de Montijo was a Spanish noblewoman who became the last French empress. She was a cultural tastemaker and activist for feminist equality, but many blame her blunders when she held power as regent for France’s worst failures and reckless rush into a ruinous war with Germany. But the story of her life has rarely been told in full. It was a career filled with glamour, achievement, and tragedy, as well as contributions that transformed the nation she ruled unlike any other royal noblewoman in Europe. She spearheaded movements in health and education to help transform France into a modern country. She pushed Parisian architecture toward steel and glass construction of buildings as well as for inclusion of green spaces throughout the city, many of which exist today. Most of all, she crafted much of the idea of what it means to be French in the modern era. Today’s guests are Petie Kladstrup and Evelyne Resnick, authors of “The Last Empress of France: The Rebellious Life of Eugénie de Montijo.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the latter half of the 19th century, Europe was dazzled by the beauty, charm and sensibility of two empresses: Eugénie, Empress of the French via her marriage to Napoleon III; and Elisabeth (or 'Sisi'), consort to the Austrian emperor, Franz Joseph. Author Nancy Goldstone speaks to Danny Bird about the lives of these two women, revealing how they broke boundaries and redefined what a royal consort could be.

pWotD Episode 2925: Cinco de Mayo Welcome to Popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 372,869 views on Monday, 5 May 2025 our article of the day is Cinco de Mayo.Cinco de Mayo (Mexican Spanish: [ˈsiŋko ðe ˈmaʝo]; Spanish for 'Fifth of May') is an annual celebration held on May 5 to celebrate Mexico's victory over the Second French Empire at the Battle of Puebla in 1862, led by General Ignacio Zaragoza. Zaragoza died months after the battle from an illness, however, and a larger French force ultimately defeated the Mexican army at the Second Battle of Puebla and then occupied Mexico City. Following the end of the American Civil War in 1865, the United States began lending money and guns to the Mexican Liberals, pushing France and Mexican Conservatives to the edge of defeat. At the opening of the French chambers in January 1866, Napoleon III announced that he would withdraw French troops from Mexico. In reply to a French request for American neutrality, the American secretary of state William H. Seward replied that French withdrawal from Mexico should be unconditional.More popular in the United States than in Mexico, Cinco de Mayo has become associated with the celebration of Mexican-American culture. Celebrations began in Columbia, California, where they have been observed annually since 1862. The day gained nationwide popularity beyond those of Mexican-American heritage in the 1980s due to advertising campaigns by beer, wine, and tequila companies; today, Cinco de Mayo generates beer sales on par with the Super Bowl. In Mexico, the commemoration of the battle continues to be mostly ceremonial, such as through military parades or battle reenactments. The city of Puebla marks the event with various festivals and reenactments of the battle. Cinco de Mayo is sometimes mistaken for Mexican Independence Day—the most important national holiday in Mexico—which is celebrated on September 16, commemorating the Cry of Dolores in 1810, which initiated the Mexican War of Independence from Spain. Cinco de Mayo has been referenced and featured in entertainment media, and has become an increasingly global celebration of Mexican culture, cuisine, and heritage.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:54 UTC on Tuesday, 6 May 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Cinco de Mayo on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Salli.

May 5, 1862. The French have landed in Mexico. Napoleon III wants to conquer the country and assert France's imperial dominance in the Americas. In his way? The Mexican army, held up in the city of Puebla. The Battle of Puebla will come to define this struggle: a European monarch against a fledgling democracy, led by Benito Juárez. Mexico's victory will be especially celebrated by Latinos in the United States, who are watching this struggle play out while their new country is embroiled in a Civil War. This first holiday, in 1862, would mark the beginning of a new tradition, unique to this new American community. How is Cinco de Mayo connected to a broad struggle for freedom across the continent in the 1860s? And what does this holiday really mean? Special thanks to David Hayes-Bautista,  distinguished professor of medicine and director of the Center for the Study of Latino Health and Culture at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, and author of El Cinco de Mayo: An American Tradition.

Two friends and academics recap classic literature and take it off its pedestal.This season, we are only looking at banned and controversial texts. In our sixty-fourth episode and Valentine's Day special, we spent some sexy time with Gustave Flaubert's adulteress, Madame Bovary (1856), which was immediately banned for offenses against morality under the conservative rule of Napoleon III. We also play 'Spot the "Big F*ck"', develop the hashtag #NotAllNuns, and watch a character go through a C19th French version of It's Always Sunny's 'The D.E.N.N.I.S. System'.Cover art © Catherine Wu.Episode Theme: Charles Gounod, 'La nuit de Walpurgis' (Act V), Faust (1859), Performed by the Philharmonia Orchestra Hosted on Acast.

Paris har väl alltid varit Paris? Jo, förvisso har staden sedan de romerska kejsarnas tid legat där mitt i Europa och sett viktig ut. Men det Paris där Solkungen huserade eller där hans efterföljare hamnade i giljotinen var en förvuxen medeltida soptipp. Underbar och kaotisk. Levande och motbjudande. Gammal.Att Paris fick sin moderna skepnad har vi två män att tacka: den enväldige kejsaren Napoleon III och hans drivne tjänsteman Georges-Eugène Haussmann. Boulevarder, parker, hus, operor och kloaker anlades i en takt som nog aldrig sedan dess har överträffats. På 15 år blev staden större, öppnare och stramare.Det ligger nära till hans att tänka på efterkrigstidens omstöpning av de svenska orterna. Rivningen av Klarakvarteren och byggandet av stora gråa Domus-hus. Men inte ens svenska socialdemokrater man mäta sig mot haussmannifieringen av Paris.Alla ska till Paris!

In this French Connections Plus, Genie Godula and Florence Villeminot continue their tour of Paris with a stop in the lesser-known 13th arrondissement. It lies in the southeastern corner of the city and was annexed into the French capital in 1860 by Napoleon III. Most Parisians today know the 13th for its enormous Chinatown or its famous animation school, Les Gobelins. But the area has a lot more to offer and there's an interesting backstory to how it became the capital's 13th arrondissement.

Along with several additions to our colorful cast of characters.   Is it really a Semaine Sanglante if you can't trust how much sanglante was spilled in the semaine? Why are that German man's balls on your grandmother's armrest? What's a zoo for, if not to provide for a fancy Françoise Massialot-inspired menu? Can we ever truly understand why Alph does any of the things Alph does? Will we finally get closure in the Legend of Dead Gary?! These questions will be answered and much much more!   Henri goes to school, Napoleon III misjudges everyone's bulges, a cartoon raccoon attacks a cartoon basset hound for no clear reason, and a children's playground becomes the scene of unimaginable horrors.

In 1864, a young Austrian archduke by the name of Maximilian crossed the Atlantic to assume a faraway throne. He had been lured into the voyage by a duplicitous Napoleon III (the nephew of Napoleon Bonaparte). Keen to spread his own interests abroad, the French emperor had promised Maximilian a hero's welcome. Instead, he walked into a bloody guerrilla war. With a head full of impractical ideals - and a penchant for pomp and butterflies - the new 'emperor' was singularly ill-equipped for what lay in store. In this episode we are looking at this barely known, barely believable episode - a bloody tragedy of operatic proportions, the effects of which would be felt into the twentieth century and beyond. To discuss his life is today's guest, Edward Shawcross, author of “The Last Emperor of Mexico: The Dramatic Story of the Habsburg Archduke Who Created a Kingdom in the New WorldSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nous sommes le 9 août 1893. Dans « La Petite Gironde », quotidien des régions du Sud-Ouest et du Midi de la France, fondé en 1872, pour lutter contre les idées de Napoléon III, un journaliste, qui a tenu à rester anonyme, écrit : « Bientôt, si nous n'y prenons garde, nous ne serons plus bons qu'à balayer les salles de rédaction (…), le reporter en jupon passera partout (…), les chefs de bureau complaisants, ajoute-t-il, l'appelleront dans leurs cabinets et lui feront, la bouche en cœur, des révélations terminées par des déclarations agenouillées. » Quatre ans plus tard, Marguerite Durand fonde « La Fronde », journal entièrement composé par des femmes. Elles y revendiquent les mêmes droits professionnels que les hommes, notamment celui de faire du reportage, à une époque où envoyer une femme sur le terrain est encore inimaginable quand bien même quelques journalistes anglo-saxonnes, surtout américaines, se sont déjà lancées dans la discipline. Des femmes qui ont refusé de se cantonner aux rubriques pour dames et ont participé, pleinement, à bousculer les règles de l'interview, à fixer les codes du récit d'aventure, qui ont porté un regard neuf sur les tranchées lors des grands conflits mondiaux. Elles sont, elles aussi, les pionnières du grand reportage.

Napoleon's meddling in his siblings' lives was the source of considerable angst for several of them. Napoleon had high expectations for his younger brother Louis, but Louis chafed at his brother's authority. Still, he ultimately agreed to marry Napoleon's step-daughter with Josephine, Hortense de Beauharnais, a marriage that would become notable most for the profound unhappiness of its spouses. Four years into their terrible marriage, Napoleon decided that the territory of the modern Netherlands was a bit too independent, and installed Louis as its new king. The French Emperor expected his brother to serve merely as a titled governor of the region, but Louis really stepped up in the position. He began learning Dutch, renounced his French citizenship and declared himself Dutch, and demanded that his mostly-French ministers do the same. He also demanded it of his wife, who had only reluctantly accompanied her husband to Holland.But Hortense also thrived in her role as Queen, and her popularity among her Dutch subjects irritated her jealous husband - who was also popular and effective, to be clear - irrationally. And the couples' success as monarchs there - Louis was known as 'Louis the Good' in Holland - irritated Napoleon irrationally. In 1810, their four year reign ended when Napoleon took it away from them by annexing it into France. This effectively ended the sham of their marriage and the couple would spend the remainder of their lives apart. Neither lived long enough to see their youngest son become France's last monarch, Napoleon III.Listen ad-free at patreon.com/trashyroyalspodcast. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode we look at how conservative monarchs in the middle of the 19th century will begin to adopt liberal and nationalistic measures in order to strengthen their power. Specifically, we look at Napoleon III in France, Alexander II in Russia, and Franz Joseph I in Austria-Hungary.

Among the conflicts that convulsed Europe during the nineteenth century, none was more startling and consequential than the Franco-Prussian War of 1870–1871. Deliberately engineered by Prussian chancellor Otto von Bismarck, the war succeeded in shattering French supremacy, deposing Napoleon III, and uniting a new German Empire. But it also produced brutal military innovations and a precarious new imbalance of power that together set the stage for the devastating world wars of the next century.Today's guest is Rachel Chrastil, author of “Bismarck's War: The Franco-Prussian War and the Making of Modern Europe.” We see how the war reshaped and blurred the boundaries between civilian and soldier as the fighting swept across France by bolstering a unified Germany to contributing to the development of modern warfare.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3101278/advertisement

The Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. has a fake crystal skull. And so does the British Museum in London, as does Paris's Quai Branly Museum. As of 2019, it was estimated there are more than a dozen crystal skulls known to exist. Long considered pre-Columbian relics, they've also inspired theories about the occult, aliens, and psychic abilities. But the reality is, none of it's true. Meet Eugène Boban, the real provenance of crystal skulls.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

H is for Haussmann - Baron Haussmann that is. He was the urban planner behind the redesign of Paris under Napoleon III.  But what is a Haussmannian building? Who was Haussmann, really, and why was his work so important? Where can you find it in Paris? And what's his legacy?
