Thinking Questions  Did Napoleon do more to preserve the legacy of the French Revolution or to destroy it?  Although Napoleon assumed dictatorial powers, he became First Consul as well as Emperor with the enthusiasm and approval of the French people. Should this affect how we judge him in the role of "tyrant"?  Must we assume that all conquerors throughout history are villains? When, if ever, can a conqueror be hero?  Did Napoleon conquer others for a higher purpose, or only for his own glory?  Should a leader's personal and romantic life be factored into the assessment of hero or tyrant, and if so why or why not?
