Fint samlingsband med fem smÃ¥skrifter rörande Napoleon troligen sammanställd av Sophie Holmgren. Originalet til det första och det fjärde arbetet "Manuscrit venu de Sainte-Hélène" utkom anonymt i London 1817 och har tillskrivits flera författare bl.a. Benjamin Constant Mme de Stäel och E. J. Sièges. Napoleon fick kännedom om detta arbete pÃ¥ St. Helena och författade 44 anmärkningar för att vederlägga det. I detta samlingsverk finns tvÃ¥ olika svenska översättningar. Bygdén uppger att den förra skall vara andra upplagan och den senare första upplagan men han blandar nog ihop detta därigenom att översättningen med titeln â€Napoleons lefnadshistoria.†även finns i en andra upplaga samma Ã¥r. Andra verket är en översättning av “Mémoires secrètes sur Napoléon Buonaparte†som utkom i Paris 1814. Tredje verket är en ovanlig svensk översättning av Madame de Staëls lilla novell en andra upplaga utkom 1814. Även KB:s exemplar saknar s. 1-2. Napoleons avvrättning av hertigen av Enghien 1804 skriver de Staël även om i sin bok om Ã¥ren i exil. Precis som mÃ¥nga andra berördes hon illa av â€mordetâ€. unknown
