Happened upon this video early today and watched it while having morning coffee. It intrigued me and put me in a good and pensive mood for the rest of the day. Very appreciated.

What a fine video, showing St. Helena's natural beauty. Amazing! Thanks. Since I collected British Empire postage stamps as a teenager, I have wanted to visit St.-Helena. Now it's accessible by air. There are several videos on You Tube of air travel to St. Helena, of which at least one tempts the dare-devil traveller.

] The Timespublished articles insinuating the British government was trying to hasten his death. Napoleon often complained of the living conditions in letters to the governor and his custodian, Hudson Lowe,[191] while his attendants complained of "colds, catarrhs, damp floors and poor provisions."[192] It has been speculated by modern scientists that his later illness arose from arsenic poisoning caused by copper arsenite in the wallpaper at Longwood House.[193] With a small cadre of followers, Napoleon dictated his memoirs and grumbled about conditions. Lowe cut Napoleon's expenditure, ruled that no gifts were allowed if they mentioned his imperial status, and made his supporters sign a guarantee they would stay with the prisoner indefinitely.[194]

Try to read 'le Mémorial de Sainte-Hélène' (in French) (Memorial of Saint-Helena) from Nap's biographer Emmanuel de las Cases. He was in Longwood House/Saint-Helena amongst Nap's three generals: Bertrand, de Montholon and Gourgaud. Try also to read the book of Jean-Paul Kauffman, 'The Dark Room at Longwood (2000)'.

Musee d'Armee recreated his death scene.. had his bedlinens.. bed, pillows.. a HUGE drawing what t he scene looked like.. it appears they auctioned off the chemise he w as wearing still having it's blood stains. I saw this in 1984.. don;t know if it's s till there.. I was alone with this curator. the room was dark.. I looked around w/this half light. and on his side table sat his death mask. just like that. no protection. I ran my fingers on it.. I almost tripped.. there were a series of like boxes. I am glad I looked closely.. it was the casket that brought his body back to France.. outter lining was this gorgeous mahogany. then a lining of tin. silver then gold.. there was an inscription on the gold.. more or less.. said in French..here likes the remains of the emperor of the French. NapoleonI with a coronet over his name. ..gave me goosebumps. I don;t know if this is still there. it was jus t sitting on the floor. This museum had his personal effects.. I noticed they have moved it like to Louvre & fountainbleu. .. his personal toiletries & things when he was in battle. his cot.. tent.. cup & saucer. lock of his hair.. most wonderful the leather puch he used over the saddle.. rough leather well used.. just had a simple N w/coronet. in s mall letters.. Napoleon really appeared to have simple taste in his personal life.. and No he was short.. around 5'6.. there was his simple cloth coat too,

What is weird is that Hudson Lowe , the governor of St Helena began his carrer in....... Corsica ! Lowe was subject to fierce critics from the british government for His Bad behaviour towards Napoleon and after 1821, Lowe s carrer was over !

@LG-dl4jx
@LG-dl4jx 3 жыл бұрын
Although they found arsenic in a lock of Napoleon's hair, later determination was that, based on this, the amount in his body was not enough to kill him. An autopsy at the time found that Napoleon had a perforated stomach, ulcers, and cancer. Also, Napoleon had a taster. That Napoleon died any other way is just a conspiracy theory.
