Note

To ofrocksandrobots ask: To Professor Grandvillie, if you someone meet the rulers of the time Varian was from, what would you do?

Professor Granville: I would assume that is a lot of people, unless you mean specific ones, and one would have to consider the circumstances under which we meet first, anon.

MAR - 20 - (AÑO 1815) - UN DÍA COMO HOY - EN FRANCIA, EL EMPERADOR NAPOLEÓN BONAPARTE ENTRA EN PARÍS CON UN EJERCITO DE 140,000 Y 200,000 VOLUNTARIOS, DANDO COMIENZO AL PERIODO CONOCIDO COMO LOS CIEN DÍAS.

El periodo conocido como los Cien Días, o Campaña de Waterloo, comprende desde el 20 de marzo de 1815, fecha del regreso de Napoleón a París desde su exilio en Elba, hasta el 8 de julio de 1815, fecha de la segunda restauración de Luis XVIII como rey de Francia. Este periodo pone fin a las llamadas guerras napoleónicas, así como al imperio francés de Napoleón Bonaparte.

La expresión Cien Días fue usada por primera vez por el prefecto de París, Conde de Chabrol, en su discurso de bienvenida al rey, y se usa también para referirse a la guerra de la Séptima Coalición. Este periodo conoció el último de los conflictos del largo periodo napoleónico, y tanto el Reino Unido como Rusia, Prusia, Suecia, Austria y algunos Estados alemanes declararon en el Congreso de Viena al Emperador francés fuera de la ley y no lo reconocieron como líder de la nación francesa, aliándose en su contra.

Napoleón había permanecido durante once meses en un intranquilo retiro en Elba entre 1814 y 1815, observando con mucho interés el transcurso de los acontecimientos en Francia. Tal como él había previsto, la contracción del antiguo gran Imperio a solo el reino de la vieja Francia provocó un gran malestar, un sentimiento alimentado además por las historias sobre la falta de tacto con que la monarquía borbónica trataba a los veteranos de la Grande Armée. La situación en Europa no era menos peligrosa; las demandas del zar Alejandro I eran tan desorbitadas que las potencias en el Congreso de Viena se hallaban al borde de una guerra entre ellas. Toda esta situación conducía a Napoleón a una renovada actividad. El retorno de los prisioneros franceses desde Rusia, Alemania, Gran Bretaña y España podría proporcionarle un ejército mucho mayor que aquel que se había ganado renombre en 1814. La amenaza que aún suponía Napoleón había llevado a los monárquicos en París y a los plenipotenciarios en Viena a discutir la conveniencia de deportarle a las Azores, y algunos iban aún más lejos, proponiendo su asesinato.

Napoleón, sin embargo, resolvió el problema en su forma característica. El 26 de febrero de 1815, aprovechando el descuido de la guardia francesa y británica, embarcó en Portoferraio con unos 600 hombres y desembarcó el 1 de marzo en Golfe-Juan, cerca de Antibes. Excepto en la Provenza (que siempre fue proclive a la monarquía borbónica), recibió en todas partes una bienvenida que atestiguaba el poder de atracción de su personalidad en contraste con la nulidad de la del Borbón. Sin disparar un solo tiro en su defensa, su pequeña tropa fue creciendo hasta convertirse en un ejército. Ney, quien había dicho de Napoleón que debía ser llevado a París en una jaula de hierro, se unió a él con 6000 hombres el 14 de marzo. Seis días más tarde, el emperador entraba en la capital, de donde Luis XVIII acababa de huir apresuradamente en dirección a Grandvilliers. [email protected]

Paris - Beauvais - Abbeville

Sunday 22 May 1831

6¾

00

Wrote the last 26 lines – had Madame Contant (who brought the remaining 2 of the pocket handkerchiefs wet) about ½ hour till 8¾ - all the day finishing cataloguing books and packing and having first one person then another – had had breakfast about 10 –

Just setting off to rue St Victor nº 27 at 4, when Mr and Mrs Colin Johnson called on their way to England from Nice, and staid an hour, so, obliged to send George off without me, a very great hindrance and inconvenience, what was in my civility I might say to the contrary.

Dinner at 5½ - took Cameron and George and off per fiacre with more things to rue St Victor about 7½, staid arranging books etc and not home till 12¼ - then coffee – came to my room at 1 40/.. – had taken wine and water so immediately after my coffee it made me bilious. However emptied out my 2 secretaires and was looking over papers and packing the whole night and till after 12 the next day �� very fine day.

Monday 23 May 1831

00

l

Up all last night (my biliousness gradually went off towards morning) and packing till after 12 this morning – had breakfasted by little and little from about 10 to 11½ - off per fiacre at 12 10/..to rue St Victor and should have been back by half past one but never thought of George’s new livery (put by since the mourning and traveling last year), and had to return when ½ way back on the way home, and did not get back till 2 35/..

Then saw Monsieur Fiévé to take leave, and this and one thing or another prevented one being off till 3 – my aunt felt a little low on leaving Paris – to me the thought of a probably speedy return made it nothing – partly chatting and I partly asleep, we drove on and stopt atthe Grand Écu Beauvais at 10 50/.. comfortable rooms – café au lait immediately – my aunt seeming not at all fatigued – Very fine day – Fahrenheit 68º at one tonight –

Tuesday 24 May 1831

8½

1 10/..

Rearranging my travelling bag etc and not ready till 11 – then breakfast – Off from Beauvais at 11 40/..2 or 3 wooden skeleton triumphal arches for the King to pass under – very fine day –

Fahrenheit 70º at 11 40/.. and 73º at 12 in the carriage and 92º on the cap case in the sun at 4 and 76º with a cool breeze at 4 20/.. – then again 87º at 4 55/.. on leaving Poix – At Camp Lamienois Yowe with the maître de poste because I wanted to go faster and complained of having gone so slow and last stage – he said the horses had been the 4th course today (with the King and his suite) which could have satisfied me, had the man been more civil.

Pretty enough all along from Paris as far as Grandvilliers, then plain and uninteresting – Camp de César better Araines and Abbeville – alighted at the hotel de L’Europe, Abbeville, at 10 – very nice room, some of the rooms looking into a large pretty garden – had soup and coffee in the room – sat talking that my dear aunt did not go to her room till 12¼ -very fine day – Fahrenheit 69º in my bedroom at 1 10/.. tonight.

Tuesday 21 April 1829

[ 4.20-4.21, route from Calais to Paris: https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1tHFLhux8h6cmP-CLJ3jwCq2JFIDQOh7O&usp=sharing ]

6 25/60

1 10/60

down stairs at 7 3/4 - beautiful sunny morning - breakfast - off from Bernay (where we have really been very comfortable) at 8 1/2 - at Nouvion at 9 1/4 - here they gave us 3 horses that had apparently never been posters before, and the postboy was thrown - he then made his horse wheeler, and mounted one of the others he could hardly sit this, and could not manage the horses at all - all this not very agreeable - however an old stager was there brought for the man to ride, and we then got on well to Abbeville at 10 3/4 - should have gone into the cathedral but found the posthorse quite at the other end of the town, and turning back would have detained us too long - here a woman was crying some largeish, round rich looking cakes said to be pecular to Abbeville - b[ou]ght one (10 sols each) - a taste of aniseed - could not eat it -

off again at 10 50/60 and alighted at the little town of Airaines at 1 10/60 - here we ordered (the poste a nice Inn) a soufflée, epinardy au jus, and potatoes à la maitre d’hotel, and walKed about the village-town about 1/2 hour - then enjoyed our dinner, and off again at 2 40/60 - at Camps at 3 3/4 - at Poix at 5 - at Grandvilliers (largeish, goodish looking Inn here) 6 3/4 - walked forwards 1/4 hour while they were changing the horses, and in the carriage and off again at 7 - at Marseille at 8 - 1/4 hour changing horses, and off again at 8 1/4 - at Beauvais (l’ecu de France) at 10 20/60 - there being no salon for us but one down stairs got 2 good bed rooms opening into each other, and had coffee in my room and a fire, and sat talking very comfortably till Miss H-[Hobart] left me at 12 1/4 -

much confidential conversation this afternoon after leaving Airaines and she very nervous we had finished reading her journal this morning all but a page or two and from spelling and putting together and catechizing I got out of her without names she saying it was very wrong of her to say so much the main circumstances tis evident she liked Bouverie she cried a good deal saying she was very sorry for it would make me think she cared much more about it than she really she only cried at remembrance of the past it was over now she did not care about it now said I really doubted that perhaps she herself was not really aware how much or little she cared could I by any possibility do her any good oh no it was too late now it was two years ago she seemed to think I knew all about it and that Miss MacL[ean] had told me of course I denied this as well as I could said I had really so questioned from observing what she herself had said she seemed satis fied that she had not told me names ssaid she had said too much it was very wrong she had no right to tell the concerns of others ssaid she might never marry at all that said is not likely and would not do and said I was a great advocate for matrimony but it was a serious business and as it seemed so easy to talk her out of things only hoped it was not so to talk her into them should always be interested about her apologized for my impertinence in having so questi oned and cross exami[n]ed but all I had seen and heard had only strengthened my interest and regard of this she expressed herself glad said if she married I should like to know of her marriage before it took place she promised to write and tell me herself speaking of Lady Stuart de Rothesay said I d[o] not know what sort of person she was worldly and clever and so argumentative and would have her own she would not take her into expenses etc. etc. bade her take all quietly then come in with strong arguments that not even Lady S[tuart] could deny or set aside had best say how she was disappointed about her money matters for she had this afternoon told me she had twenty thousand pounds sstock and it yielded only five hundred and fifty a year but some money was to be done some thing with that would make her income six hundred said I had under stood from Miss MacL[ean] that her mothers fortune was five thousands no no such thing but with interest on ditto five and twenty years it amounted to that I had not failed to obs[erve] that when she told me her fortune and income she ended by 'there now you have it' thought I is she always quite good tempered is she flippant would not suit me she could not push me in society and has not enough in her or fortune sufficient fo[r] me butt much admired the natural manner in which her journal was written said how much it had interested me etc. etc. and that she had no want of natural talent poor girl this sseemed true but old Lady S[tuart] is no reader but of novels and would never let her read anything else always keeps her up late will never let her leave and in fact the poor girl knows not what it is to have liberty and her own way she spoke of Lord S[tuart] de Rs[Rothesay’s] bruskerie[brusquerie] she has nothing in common with him often forgets what is due to English ladies but Lady S[tuart] takes no notice takes not much notice of his two girls (about twelve and fourteen?) save as to their appearance he seems rather tyrannical in his family but Lady S[tuart] ge[t]s her own way (sso argumentative?) for he says 'anything for a quiet life' - we got on moralizing I apologized for so doing 'oh no said she I like it I so seldom hear anything of that kind it does me good' poor girl her society and her own manners are first rate not so her happiness she was twenty six her last birthaday 24 Jan[uar]y just before she left me tonight talking of a competency I said not less than a thousand a year she ought not to marry to have less she wondered I said so little I said if people were attached they might do with this and good connections we are very good friends she hates the thought of arriving

very fine sunny day - rain just before, and till, and after our getting to Beauvais -
