He was a childhood friend of Nappy and wrote pretty well, had a pretty well rounded view of the guy.

Define a perfect memory. If I divert my interests to it I can remember the finest details in the picture, without any methods which I'm aware do not make up an eidetic memory, but most things I choose not to take much note of.

>> No.17393573

you probably just have a very good memory then. only autistic savants have a true eidetic memory

The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte is an interesting analysis of Bonaparte, even if you don't like Marx. Psychology and Alchemy by Jung for a take on collective unconscious in relation to figures like Napoleon.

>> No.17393608

i don't care for napoleon, desu. i think expert statesmen are cooler (e.g.: richileu, talleyrand, bismark, and kissinger). the sorts of people that have a hand on the pulse of a nation.

I am 2/3 of the way through Napoleon: A Life, it is good, but the author is somewhat of a faggot.
