This particular volume features assorted pieces, including essays on political figures, cultural critiques, and notable historical accounts, offering insights into the prevailing thoughts and debates of the time. At the start of the volume, an insightful essay by Robert G. Ingersoll reflects on the life of Napoleon Bonaparte through a visit to his grand tomb. Ingersoll contrasts the magnificence of Napoleon’s resting place with the tumultuous and often tragic legacy of his life, expressing a deep ambivalence about ambition and power.
