Memoirs of Lucien Bonaparte, Vol. 1: Prince of Canino; From the Year 1792 to the Year 8 of the Republic (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Memoirs of Lucien Bonaparte, Vol. 1: Prince of Canino; From the Year 1792 to the Year 8 of the Republic
The education of my two elder brothers upon the Conti nent, mine, and the deputation of our father to Paris, had rendered us entirely French. Corsica had been declared, since the 3oth of November, 1789, an integral part of the monarchy; and that declaration, which had satisfied the wishes of the islanders, had completely effaced from their minds the bitter remembrance of the conquest. The philo sophical ideas and revolutionary agitations which prevailed upon the Continent, fermented also in our heads and no one hailed with more ardour than we did the dawn of 1789. Joseph entered into the administration of the department. Napoleon prepared by serious studies to march w1th giant steps in his career of prodigies. And the third brother, a mere boy, ran to throw himself into the popular societies, with the lively enthusiasm of a youthful and ardent mind, filled with the remembrances of college, and the great names of Rome and Greece.
