Ich finde ja nach wie vor, dass eine echte "psychologishe" Biographie Napoleons fehlt ... auch wenn die letzte Deutsche von Johannes Willms (siehe Rezension unter http://www.napoleon-online.de/html/r...html#NapWillms) nicht schlecht ist, es fehlt mir an "psychologischen" Erklärungen der Persönlichkeit Napoleon.
Das mag für viele nicht interessant sein, aber ich finde es halt interessant, warum sich ein Mensch so entwickelt wie er wird/wurde (ich habe schon früh meinen "Adler" gelesen) bzw. was eben in der Prägung der Persönlichkeit schief ging. Sicher kann man mit Küchenpsychologie ableiten, dass Napoleon
Diese vier Beiträge waren das einzig wirklich Interessante aus insgesamt 71 Treffern der Psychologie-Literaturdatenbank ... v.a. ein E. Bergler scheint sich mit der "Psychopathologie" sowohl Napoleons als auch Talleyrands (gnlwth, interessant gell?) befasst zu haben. Klar, dass mich auch der zweite Beitrag aus dem Bereich der Gruppenpsychologie sehr interessiert.
Vor allem die Arbeiten von Bergler könnten doch etwas "Licht" in die Persönlichkeit Napoleons aus Sicht der Psychologie bringen.
Weitere Literaturhinweise bzw. Anmerkungen zur Psyche (-pathologie) Napoleons sind natürlich willkommen

- Minderwertigkeitskomplexe hatte
- einen starken Mutterkomplex hatte
- enorm mißtrauisch war, ja geradezu Angst vor den Menschen (v.a. in Massen) hatte
- und letztendlich ein starker Egomane war (sonst hätte er nicht so viele "Erfolge" erzielt)

AB:Originally published in Contemporary Psychology: APA Review of Books, 1996, Vol 41(6), 624. This book explores manic depression as a cause of and contributor to irrational acts of tyranny, through examination of the lives and acts of Napoleon Bonaparte, Adolf Hitler, and Joseph Stalin. In their Introduction, the authors note that they do not intend to offer new material about these three leaders or about the nature of manic depression. Instead, they examine (in their own words) "the terra incognita of relationships between the strange lives of Napoleon, Hitler, and Stalin and the ferocious, bizarre political systems they established," in an attempt to demonstrate their theory of bipolar disorder as a cause of tyranny. The life of each man is discussed individually at some length (Parts 1-3), after which the three are compared in terms of their psychological illnesses (Part 4) and their acts of tyranny (Part 5).

AB:By his intuitive understanding of group dynamics, Napoleon was able to bind together the armies of many nations and drive them toward the conquest of the Russian Empire. "Verification of Freud's discovery that the cohesiveness of the group depends upon the ties to its leader was found in analyzing the disintegration of the Grand Army after Napoleon's departure." In exercising a type of paternalism, the group leader revives the early ego identifications of childhood where the child conceives of the father as omnipotent. The group members, unfettered by reality testing, influence the developed reality sense of the leader and may impel him to actions that sweep him along to his destruction.

AB:These are studies of the lives of the four characters indicated, patterned after those studies reported previously using the psychoanalytic type of research. The author considers Talleyrand as a cynic, and cynicism is due to a strong ambivalence; the ambivalence in this particular case is manifested by aggression. The relationship between Napoleon and Talleyrand is given in the second chapter, where selections are taken from the literature to show subjection and other emotional reactions of Talleyrand toward Napoleon; the ambivalence is particularly shown in this relationship. The third essay is an analysis of the writings and of the life history of Stendhal, who is analyzed as being a narcissistic voyeur. The last essay deals with Grabbe, who is a pessimist on an oral-erotic basis with a sadistic component. The material for discussion in these essays is taken from various psychoanalytic theses and from biographical writings dealing with the lives of the characters. An occasional letter or scrap of composition by the subject is also included. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)

AB:The life history of Napoleon is reviewed and his political relations to Talleyrand recalled, and comments are made on the relationship of both to women. The strong loyalty of Napoleon to France is examined in the light of his youthful antipathy as aroused by his strong Corsican affiliation. A search for motives is attempted from the psychoanalytical interpretation, and the author believes that Napoleon projected a youth's mother-love into a love of a mother country, and found in Talleyrand a symbol of the father, thus projecting his jealousy of the male parent upon his political rival. He calls attention to the strong inferiority feeling of Napoleon and his self-punishment attitude, the whole being a typical Oedipus-complex situation.
