Whakakī i te rerenga e whai ake nei: Ko te A Life of Napoleon (french: ) he pukapuka i tuhia e Marie-Henri Beyle, e mohiotia ana i raro i tana ingoa ingoa o Stendhal, i te 1817-1818. Koinei tetahi o nga tuhinga e rua i whakatapua e Stendhal ki te Emepara, ko (1836-1837) te tuarua. I whai a Stendhal i nga pakanga a Napoleon i Itari, Tiamana, Russia me Austria. Whai muri i te hinganga o Napoleon, ka wehe ia ki Itari. I tohua ia hei Kaunihera i Civitavecchia i muri i te
1830 revolution, engari i kino haere tōna hauora, ā, e ono tau i muri mai ka hoki ia ki Paris ki te mahi i tana Life of Napoleon. Kaore e whakaputaina kia roa i muri i tona matenga e Romain Colomb, hoa, whanaunga me te kaitiaki o Stendhal.
