| Summary | "Memoirs of the Life, Exile, and Conversations of the Emperor Napoleon" by the Count de Las Cases is a historical account written in the early 19th century. The work details the life and reflections of Napoleon Bonaparte during his exile, providing insights into his thoughts and experiences, particularly during his time on St. Helena. As a memoir, it focuses on the personal anecdotes and discussions between the Emperor and those close to him, shedding light on his character, ambitions, and perspectives on politics and history. The opening of the memoir presents a glimpse into Napoleon's daily life and his interactions with those around him. On July 15, 1816, the Emperor converses with Las Cases while walking, discussing political matters related to his exile. He reflects on the historical significance of projects like the works at Cherbourg, showcasing not only his military and naval ambitions but also his frustrations with the government and society as they relate to his legacy. Additionally, the narrative explores Napoleon's relationships and sentiments regarding figures from history, making it clear that his mind is occupied with both personal and national concerns, as he grapples with his current circumstances and the legacy he wishes to leave behind.
