Conference: ‘Beyond the legend, is Napoleon guilty or misjudged?’

Meet at the Museum Chapel to attend a lecture by Olivier Buffy, professor of history and geography. A hero for some, a tyrant for others, Napoleon Bonaparte continues to divide. Two centuries after his death, the golden legend and the black legend still clash. What can we remember about Napoleon? A visionary builder or a bloodthirsty despot? Through this lecture, Olivier Buffy proposes to go beyond clichés to examine the complexity of this legacy, taking the necessary distance to answer this question objectively.
