Summary "Mémoires du maréchal Marmont, duc de Raguse" by Marmont is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This memoir narrates the life and military career of the author, who served under Napoleon during significant events that shaped France and Europe from the late 18th century through the early 19th century. The text explores Marmont's personal experiences and reflections, providing insights into his relationship with notable figures such as Bonaparte and the tumultuous times surrounding the French Revolution. At the start of the memoir, Marmont reflects on the passage of time and the need to document his memories from his youth in Châtillon-sur-Seine to his formative years in military training. He discusses his family background and the military legacy that inspired his own aspirations for glory and honor. As he recounts his early interactions with none other than Napoleon Bonaparte, Marmont sets the stage for a detailed narrative filled with moments of personal ambition, political upheaval, and military engagements that defined the era. The opening establishes both the historical context and the author's introspective voice, indicating a blend of personal narrative with broader historical events.
