This file was produced from images generously made available by the Bibliothèque nationale de France (BnF/Gallica) "Napoléon Le Petit" by Victor Hugo is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The text primarily critiques the rise of Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte, recounting the significant political events that led to his presidency and highlighting the implications of his actions for the French Republic. Through this examination, Hugo provides insight into the tumultuous nature of French politics during a crucial period. The opening of the work sets the stage on December 20, 1848, when the French National Assembly declares Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte as president. The atmosphere is tense, filled with the murmurs of representatives reflecting on Bonaparte's stormy past—his attempts to gain power through military means and the emotions surrounding his election as a harbinger of an uncertain future. Hugo illustrates the mixed emotions of admiration and skepticism that Bonaparte inspires among his peers, while also foreshadowing the tragic political events that will unfold under his rule, including the eventual dissolution of the Republic he pledged to uphold. The narrative unfolds with a dramatic portrayal of the moment, illustrating both the solemnity of the presidential oath and the looming shadow of betrayal that would characterize Bonaparte's presidency.
