And Thats What I Love Immensely About The Napoleonic Community On Tumblr: It Grants An Amazing Opportunity

And that’s what I love immensely about the Napoleonic community on Tumblr: it grants an amazing opportunity to explore in a cheerful manner the world-wide perspective of an era based on magically diverse human experience and perception!

Thank you so much for your lovely commentary~ 🌺

And to think that it was only minus 5 degrees Celsius that day, as me and my friend found the weather soothing and pleasant even, since it wasn’t too windy or chilly… 🤭

The most stereotypical Russian sight you’ll ever witness. And yet it is very real. ❄️

Soldiers of the Grande Armée (including those poor souls who served the Russian empire THAT year, since winter and deadly illnesses were merciless to anyone) experienced much unpleasant feelings from its omnipresence, without any doubt. Still, that solemn vision is breathtaking, when you are able to contemplate in chilly solitude of your surroundings.

Wonder, if anyone in the Napoleonic community on Tumblr would love to see more of such occasional ✨ aesthetic ✨ insights into the Russian “reality” from a person who was born and raised in that aloof place?

Insights with a sprinkle of Napoleonic impressions, natürlich~

That sweet-sweet feeling of preparations for a reenactment event when you’ve officially joined the team 💙

Just a smol insight. I couldn’t resist the temptation. 🤫

It’s that wonderful time of the year…

When many prominent subjects of emperor Franz celebrate their 200-and-something birthdays! 🇦🇹 ✨

Today is a special day, since it’s the birthday of field-marshal Schwarzenberg, a military man, diplomate and movingly loving husband and father who definitely deserved much more than he got during his lifetime.

We’ve known for two years now, and it was one of the best Napoleonic acquaintances I’ve ever made, for sure. :)

Even though I’m currently off Tumblr for the most part, I can’t miss such a favourable opportunity, since someone unbelievably important for the European history (even not if in a positive way) has been a part of its legacy for 250 years now. 🇦🇹

Happy birthday to that cunning Austrian minister over there - refined aristocrat, perfect gentleman and a hopeless romantic deep in his heart (even though he denied it himself and was denied by many of such merit). 🥂

He may be criticised or even judged severely for many of his deeds, yet he remains an exceptionally fascinating person to be studied.

Even more so, since he would have enjoyed it himself quite a bit. ;)

Oh, I wanted to read this book one day, naturally, but it seems I’m good without it for now! 😂

I’ve still got plenty of other sources and materials to go through (besides, right now I’m more focused on reading classical literature, since I haven’t had an urge this strong in a long time), so yeeeeah.

However, it would be fun to make full-length reviews on some history books in the future, if I’m able to!

Especially books of that kind. ;)

My newest read. @count-lero, are you familiar with this one?
