Napoleon attracts and repels, fascinates and causes rejection, but leaves no one indifferent. In 2019, the 250th anniversary of the birth of Napoleon Bonaparte turned out, and his name, already in his lifetime turned into a legend, became not just a myth, but a national, or rather, an international brand, a branded sign.
At one time, the famous writer and poet Victor Hugo, whose father was the Napoleonic general, wrote that the French continue to show or hide Napoleon, unable to come to final opinions, and these words did not lose their relevance today. He himself began to create his own legend, he is the main architect of this design, he can be said, the first PR manager in history. And the legend is the basis of its cult, veneration and memory.
How was this cult formed? How was the development of myth and antimyphe? What is the role of veterans of the great army and writers of the era of romanticism in the formation of the Na-Poleon cult? How did the French authorities at different stages relate to the name and heritage of Napoleon? What is the position of the modern authorities of France? How did the French people have the 200th anniversary of the First Empire and the 250th anniversary of the birth of Napoleon Bonaparte? What do modern historians think about this and how do they assess the reasons for the popularity of Napoleon around the world? All these issues are raised on the pages of this book
