Albert Sidney Johnston: The Highest-Ranking General Killed in the US Civil War
Albert Sidney Johnston (1803-1862) was the commander of the Confederate western armies in the early months of the American Civil War (1861-1865). Over the course of his 34-year military career, Johnston served in the armies of three republics – the Republic of Texas, the United States, and the Confederate States – and, in 1861, was granted the rank of full general by his friend, Confederate President Jefferson Davis (1808-1889), who considered him the greatest soldier in the country. Johnston was killed at the Battle of Shiloh (6-7 April 1862), earning him the distinction of being the highest-ranking soldier to be killed on either side during the war.
Early Life & Career
Johnston was born on 2 February 1803 in the small frontier town of Washington, Kentucky. His father, Dr. John Johnston, was a New Englander who had migrated to Kentucky in 1788, driven by the great American desire to go west. As one of the only trained physicians on that frontier, Dr. Johnston soon established a large and successful medical practice. His first wife died only a year after coming to Kentucky, but the doctor did not wait long before remarrying to Abigail Harris, a young woman whose family had also moved to the frontier from New England (it is somewhat ironic, then, that one of the Confederacy's most admired generals was descended from New England Yankees on both sides of his family). Albert Sidney, the couple's fifth child, was only three when his mother died; raised by his older sisters and stepmother, the boy was said to have been a 'healthy and cheerful' child who inherited the 'frank and manly demeanor' of his father (Roland, 9).
In 1818, the 15-year-old Johnston enrolled in Transylvania University in nearby Lexington, Kentucky, where he hoped to follow in his father's footsteps by studying medicine. He was a popular and diligent student who excelled in his studies, particularly in mathematics. However, by 1822, Johnston realized that a medical career was not right for him, and he decided to seek a military career instead. He was admitted into the prestigious United States Military Academy at West Point, New York, where he quickly impressed both his instructors and fellow cadets with his charming, gentlemanly personality; "his nature was truly noble," one classmate wrote, "untouched by anything small or contracted" (quoted in Roland, 17). He was quick to make friends, including future Confederate leaders Jefferson Davis and Leonidas Polk (1806-1864); he was also cordial with Robert E. Lee (1807-1870), two classes below him, although the two were not close. Alongside his popularity, Johnston was also a model cadet. In 1826, he graduated eighth in his class of 41.
Breveted a second lieutenant in the US Army, he was first stationed at Sackets Harbor on Lake Ontario, a quiet posting that left him little to do other than attend drills and read his books. He was then transferred to Missouri, where, in August 1827, he was sent on an expedition to hunt down a group of Winnebago Native Americans suspected of murdering White settlers. After travelling up the Wisconsin River, Lieutenant Johnston and the other US soldiers met with a council of Winnebago leaders, who agreed to hand over the individuals responsible for the murders to avoid reprisals by the US. One of the Winnebago prisoners, a man named Red Bird, made a strong impression on Johnston in the way he conducted himself after his captivity. Johnston wrote: "I must confess that I consider Red Bird one of the noblest and most dignified men I ever saw. When he gave himself up…he said, 'I have offended. I sacrifice myself to save my country'" (quoted in Roland, 23).
While attending a ball in St. Louis, Missouri, Johnston was introduced to Henrietta Preston, a striking young woman of "poise and dignity" (Roland, 28). They were married on 20 January 1829, and Johnston spent many of the following months on leave in Louisville, Kentucky, with his wife's family, where he passed the time "pleasantly and quietly in the country, reading, shooting the rifle, etc." (ibid). After the birth of their first son in January 1831, Johnston returned to active duty. The next year, the US northwestern frontier was invaded by Native Americans under the Sauk leader Black Hawk (circa 1767-1838), sparking the Black Hawk War (April – August 1832). During that brief conflict, Johnston served as chief-of-staff to Brevet Brigadier General Henry Atkinson, who commended him for his "talents of the first order, a gallant soldier by profession and education, and a gentleman of high standing and integrity" (quoted in Roland, 243).

Critique of Pure Reason by Immanuel Kant
Critique of Pure Reason Critique of Pure Reason is one of the cornerstones in western philosophy. It was first published in 1781 and it was later followed by the works: Critique of Judgement and the Critique of Judgement. In Critique of Pure Reason, Kant outline his theories about space and time as a form of perceiving and causality as a form of knowing. Both space and time and our conceptual principles and processes pre-structure our experience. Download the 890 pages PDF e-book here (huge file: 28 MB):
Critique of Pure Reason by Immanuel Kant
Introduction to Kant's Critique of Pure Reason
Who was Immanuel Kant?
Immanuel Kant was an influential German philosopher in the Age of Enlightenment, primarily known for his contributions to the fields of metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and aesthetics. Born in Königsberg, now occupied by Russia, on April 22, 1724, Kant spent most of his life in his hometown. Kant's philosophical work is epitomized by his "Critique" series, which includes three major works: the "Critique of Pure Reason" (1781), the "Critique of Practical Reason" (1788), and the "Critique of Judgment" (1790). These works address, respectively, the foundations and limits of human knowledge, the philosophy of moral and ethical reasoning, and the critique of aesthetics and teleology. One of his most significant contributions to philosophy is the concept of the "categorical imperative," a principle that asserts that one should act only according to that maxim by which you can at the same time will that it should become a universal law. This idea is a cornerstone of modern deontological ethics and asserts that morality is derived from rationality and the inherent dignity of human beings. Kant's influence extends beyond philosophy into other fields such as science, politics, and psychology, shaping modern thought with his rigorous approach to systematic philosophy. He passed away on February 12, 1804, but his ideas continue to resonate and influence various academic disciplines. Read the full article

The napoleonic marshal‘s children
After seeing @josefavomjaaga’s and @northernmariette’s marshal calendar, I wanted to do a similar thing for all the marshal’s children! So I did! I hope you like it. c: I listed them in more or less chronological order but categorised them in years (especially because we don‘t know all their birthdays). At the end of this post you are going to find remarks about some of the marshals because not every child is listed! ^^“ To the question about the sources: I mostly googled it and searched their dates in Wikipedia, ahaha. Nevertheless, I also found this website. However, I would be careful with it. We are talking about history and different sources can have different dates. I am always open for corrections. Just correct me in the comments if you find or know a trustful source which would show that one or some of the dates are incorrect. At the end of the day it is harmless fun and research. :) Pre 1790

Sophie Jourdan (died in 1820)
Additional remarks: - Marshal Berthier died 8.5 months before his last daughter‘s birth. - Marshal Oudinot had 11 children and the age difference between his first and last child is around 32 years. - The age difference between marshal Grouchy‘s first and last child is around 43 years. - Marshal Lefebvre had fourteen children (12 sons, 2 daughters) but I couldn‘t find anything kind of reliable about them so they are not listed above. I am aware that two sons of him were listed in the link above. Nevertheless, I was uncertain to name them in my list because I thought that his last living son died in the Russian campaign while the website writes about the possibility of another son dying in 1817. - Marshal Augerau had no children. - Marshal Brune had apparently adopted two daughters whose names are unknown. - Marshal Pérignon: I couldn‘t find anything about his daughters, Justine, Elisabeth and Adèle, except that they died in infancy. - Marshal Sérurier had no biological children but adopted Marguerite-Félécité Desprez in 1814. - Marshal Marmont had no children. - I found out that marshal Saint-Cyr married his first cousin, lol. - I didn‘t find anything about marshal Poniatowski having children. Apparently, he wasn‘t married either (thank you, @northernmariette for the correction of this fact! c:)
#Marshal‘s children calendar#literally every napoleonic marshal ahaha#napoleonic era#Napoleonic children#I am not putting all the children‘s names into the tags#Thank you no thank you! :)#YES I posted it without double checking every child so don‘t be surprised when I have to correct some stuff 😭#napoleon's marshals#napoleonic
