"Memorie di Emma Lyonna, vol. 6/8" by Alexandre Dumas is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. Told as the first-person recollections of Emma, Lady Hamilton, it immerses readers in the political and emotional dramas surrounding the court of Naples during the French Revolution and the rise of Napoleon. The narrative centers on Emma’s entanglements with Queen Maria Carolina, Sir William Hamilton, and Admiral Horatio Nelson amid war and diplomacy. Expect an intimate, highly partisan view of sweeping European events filtered through a bold, self-aware heroine. The opening of the work charts a rapid survey of French Republican victories after Robespierre, Bonaparte’s meteoric ascent and triumphs in Italy, and the mounting alarm at Naples that spurs fierce royalist proclamations, clerical mobilization, and repression. A detailed account of General Duphot’s killing in Rome—relayed via Joseph Bonaparte’s report—triggers French intervention, the proclamation of the Roman Republic, and Pope Pius VI’s departure. The focus then shifts to the sea: Nelson’s pursuit of the French fleet, his anxious letters to Emma, his covert resupply at Syracuse made possible through her influence, and the crushing victory at the Nile that sends Naples into raptures and showers Nelson with honors. It closes with preparations for his triumphal reception and Emma’s frank admission that the queen is enlisting her personal sway over Nelson for reasons of state, signaling how private passion will intersect with high politics.
