He was the very spirit of the militant Revolution. Virtually everything he did during the fifteen years of his preponderance was derived from and linked to the French Revolution. Much of his hold over contemporaries was his embodiment of the aspirations as well as the boundless energy of the Revolution. Even his enemies, foreign and domestic, were fascinated by the man and uniformly saw him as 'the Revolution on horseback'. He fought off vengeful reactionary powers long enough for the Revolution to sink deep and permanent roots in France. The Allies who finally defeated Napoleon found it impossible to undo his subversive work - the genii of the Revolution was out of the bottle, and for good. Through his incessant table talk and dictated autobiography he focused the attention of posterity, inculcating his version of himself, events, and their significance. 000470595 520__ $$a"This new study of Napoleon emphasizes his ties to the French Revolution, his embodiment of its militancy, and his rescue of its legacies. Jordan's work illuminates all aspects of his fabulous career, his views of the Revolution and history, the artists who created and embellished his image, and much of his talk about himself and his achievements"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000470595 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000470595 60000 $$aNapoleon$$bI,$$cEmperor of the French,$$d1769-1821. 000470595 651_0 $$aFrance$$xHistory$$yRevolution, 1789-1799$$xInfluence. 000470595 651_0 $$aFrance$$xHistory$$y1789-1815. 000470595 655_7 $$aElectronic books.$$2lcsh 000470595 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aJordan, David P., 1939-$$tNapoleon and the Revolution.$$dHoundmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire ; New York, NY : Palgrave Macmillan, 2012$$z9780230362819$$w(DLC) 2012023368$$w(OCoLC)782988603 000470595 8520_ $$bacq 000470595 85280 $$bebk$$hEbrary 000470595 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1039394$$zOnline Access 000470595 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:470595$$pGLOBAL_SET 000470595 980__ $$aEBOOK 000470595 980__ $$aBIB 000470595 982__ $$aEbook 000470595 983__ $$aOnline
