"Œuvres de Napoléon Bonaparte, Tome V" by Emperor of the French Napoleon I is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This volume primarily focuses on the Russian Campaign of 1812, detailing the maneuvers, strategies, and political context surrounding Napoleon's military actions against Russia, as well as the complexities of his relationships with allied nations. The opening of the text sets the stage for the unfolding conflict by documenting pivotal moments leading up to the campaign. It begins by outlining significant political changes in Russia in late 1810, highlighting the shift away from Franco-Russian relations that ultimately contributed to the war. The narrative describes the mobilization of the Russian army, France's military preparations, and Napoleon's strategic decisions, including treaties with Austria and Prussia. A sense of urgency pervades as Napoleon prompts his army to advance, while his proclamations to his troops evoke themes of honor, destiny, and the historical context of the conflict that positions the campaign as a continuation of earlier wars. The groundwork is laid for a detailed military account that blends personal reflections, tactical notes, and the author's reflections on the broader implications of this crucial campaign in European history.
