David Markham Wayne Hanley President Editor-in-Chief Napoleonic Scholarship: The Journal of the International Napoleonic Society December 2017 Illustrations Front Cover: Very rare First Empire cameo snuffbox in burl wood and tortoise shell showing Napoleon as Caesar.

Back Cover: Bronze cliché (one sided) medal showing Napoleon as First Consul surrounded by flags and weapons over a scene of the Battle of Marengo. The artist is Bertrand Andrieu (1761-1822), who was commissioned to do a very large number of medallions and other work of art in metal. It is dated the year X (1802), two years after the battle (1800). Both pieces are from the David Markham Collection.

  • Petition Against Dolphinaria in Egypt
    Ministry of Agriculture and Land Reclamation, Ministry of State for Environmental Affairs Dear decision makers, We, the undersigned, are hereby proclaiming our disapproval of keeping dolphins in captivity within the borders of Egypt. The existence of dolphinaria is detrimental to the welfare of dolphins and causes harm and death to them through capture, transportation, and confinement in captivity. This is true for both wild-captured and captive-born animals. Our request is based on scientific and factual evidence that keeping dolphins in captivity only benefits humans who profit from them, but has no conservation, educational or scientific value whatsoever. Governments need to be firmer in their response to these important threats to these animals and prevent dolphinaria from establishing, while also helping to educate the public, many of whom flock to dolphinaria to watch the dolphins cavorting, blissfully unaware of the suffering and death toll that such shows entail. We hereby respectfully petition you to: - PREVENT the opening of a new dolphinarium in Makadi Bay (south of Hurghada) which is supposed to open its gates soon. - DO NOT grant any further permits for the establishment of dolphinaria in the Red Sea Governorate - PASS required legislation to prohibit commercial captive display of dolphins and other marine mammals in Egypt, as another Party to ACCOBAMS, Croatia, has done. We will lobby vigorously, for the passing of new laws to make Egypt and especially the Red Sea Governorate free from this heartbreaking, inhumane business. Name From Comments 1. Urte Fiek Bordesholm, Germany 2. Amina Cesario Milano, Italy 3. Grandin Corinne Hurghada, Egypt 4.

APPENDIX.. " Fnn:e co:aotu.T OPtTa." My courteous readers will probably acknowledge the truth of my motto, if I here exhibit to them one of the most remarkable great bells that ever was made. As I have only very lately heard of it, an Appendix was unavoidable. I. In a very scarce little book (a copy of which has lately come into my poasession)-Pacichellius, de Tintinobuw Nola.no Lucubratio, published at Naples, 1693-which Dr. Parr (in Bibliotheca Parriana, 181 '7, p. 4'79) ca.11s "a great curiosity,"-there is an account of a large bell, formerly in the Church of S. Andrea at Mantua, of most remarkable construction, having eight openings or windows in its side. It is represented in this engraving (Fig. 1) reproduced from one in the work above mentioned. But, instead of giving the description as I find it in Pacichellius, I am indebted to the kind courtesy of the Very Rev. Carlo Savoya, the Dean or Rector of St. Andrew at MRntua, for a much fuller account of this great curiosity, with which the Dean has most kindly favoured me, in a letter of January last, extracted, he tells me, from the ancient rtcords of the Church in his possession.
