Have seen the movie, Napoleon, an epic that details the chequered rise and fall of French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte and his relentless journey to power through the prism of his addictive, volatile relationship with his wife, Josephine? Are you curious how historically accurate it was? This lecture aims to explain the rise of one of the most famous figures in Western, if not, World Civilization. Napoleon’s intellectual, civic, governmental, and military achievements will be weighed in the context of the movement that birthed him – The French Revolution.
