Henri's World |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Henri is a member of Napoleon's army at Boulogne. Use the link to see where Boulogne is and some artistic interpretations of the time. The map is great, but the text on this site may be difficult to read because it has been translated from French (you aren't required to read it).
Henri has a very deep connection to Napoleon Bonaparte, and through his thoughts we learn how the other men feel about him as well. While reading part one, "The Emperor," you wrote down some passages that indicated these feelings. Please re-read them now and keep them in mind while learning about Napoleon.

Because of the huge effect that Napoleon has had on the world, he has been the subject of many works of art. Look at the paintings on the following sites. Take notes on any themes you notice.
After looking through them, choose one painting that you think would be Henri's favorite. Write an essay explaining "why" using details from the painting and the text. If nothing seems "just right" you may draw or paint your own picture and write your essay about that.
