Napoleon’s skill and brilliance extended well beyond the battlefield. Within 20 years of the abolition of the French monarchy during the revolution, he had out-maneuvered his political rivals and crowned himself emperor and then began rebuilding the state and establishing a dynasty. This course will explore the political and social backdrop that gave rise to Napoleon’s career as well as the ambition and character that enabled the “little general” to leave a remarkable legacy.
