An Account of Corsica; the Journal of a Tour to That Island; and Memoirs of Pascal Paoli by James Boswell Pdf

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1768 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER III. "The T resent State of Cor Si Ca, ivith refpccl to Government, Religion, Arms, Commerce, Learning, the Genius and Characler of its Inhabitants. A FTER running over the revolutions of an -* island, which has experienced so many vi- ciffitudes, it will be agreeable to consider the result of these vigorous exertions in the cause of liberty. I shall, therefore, with much pleasure, present my readers with the state of Corsica as it now is. The government of Corsica is, as follows. Every paese or village, elects, by majority of votes, a Podesta and other two magistrates, who have the respectable name of ' Padri del Commune; Fathers of the Community.' These magistrates are chofen annually. They may be continued in office for several years, at the will of the community; but there must be a new election every year. The Podesta, by himself, may determine caufes to the value of ten livres; and united with the Padri del Commune* may finally determine causes to the value of thirty livres. The Podesta is the representative of the government, and to him are addressed all the orders of the supreme council. The Padri del Commune superintend the oeconomy and police of the village, call the people together, and consult with them on every thing that concerns their interest. In some villages, the in-' habitants join with the Podesta and Padri del Commune, twelve honest men, in whom they can confide, and to whom they can delegate their power of settling the affairs of the publick. These are called counsellors, and fit as assessors with the three magistrates of the village. The names of these magistrates, as soon as elected, must be transmitted to the magistrates of the province, who have it in their power to oppofe the choice, and order a...

The Legend Of Napoleon by Sudhir Hazareesingh Pdf

'God was bored with Napoleon,' wrote Victor Hugo, and the Emperor was duly defeated at Waterloo in 1815 and exiled to St Helena, where he died an agonizing and horrifying death. The Emperor's real legacy is the modernizing and beautifying of Paris, the official promotion of religious tolerance, the current French legal and educational systems, and the European Union, to name but a few Napoleonic initiatives. And of course, the legend lives on. Drawing on new archival research, Hazareesingh traces not only the emergence of the Napoleonic myth and how it developed into a potent political culture, but also the amazing tenacity of popular affection for the Emperor, manifest in countless busts and portraits in ordinary citizens' homes, grass-roots political activism, miraculous apparitions reported after his death and the memories kept alive by thousands of imperial war veterans. This book is a timely study of why the fascination with Napoleon has endured for two centuries.
