Story : This episode of the Speciali Superquark is dedicated to the most famous and celebrated of leaders: Napoleon Bonaparte. After the great enthusiasm and bloodbaths of the French Revolution, a Corsican general, Napoleon, appears first on the military scene and then on the scene of the great powerful people of the earth, whose action will have a profound impact on the history of modern Europe. Piero Angela retraces his story starting from the moment of the coup d'état, but above all following the events of the "Grande Armèe", Napoleon's great army, which for almost twenty years crossed the most diverse fronts: from Austria to Italy, from Prussia to Spain, from Egypt to Russia. There is no shortage of intrigues that surrounded him and his family, and his great loves. The images of the beautiful drama co-produced by Rai in 2002, directed by Yves Simoneau, bring the power of his story to life.
