ADDENDUM ON NAPOLEON: Historical Exemplarism in Short-Lived Empires and Long-Lived Influence
Following up on my episode on Napoleon, in which I mentioned Johan Huizinga on historical ideals, I revisit these historical ideals and consider them in the light of moral exemplarism. Why have historical exemplars been drawn from the long-lived influence of short-lived empires and the singular men who presided over them? Let us re-imagine figures like Alexander the Great, Charlemagne, and Napoleon as historical exemplars who give focus to the role of virtue ethics in history.
