Crossing Out The Emperor

Mehr zum Buch

The narrative delves into the complex psychological landscapes of Beethoven, grappling with love and deafness, alongside Napoleon's military mindset during the 1812 invasion of Russia. It raises questions about the nature of their experiences—whether they reflect romantic and military fervor or lean towards psychiatric interpretations, as hinted in the Foreword. This exploration invites readers to consider the intersection of genius and turmoil in both historical figures.
