520			_a"Théodore de Neuhoff, Roi de Corse" by A. Le Glay is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work chronicles the life of Théodore de Neuhoff, a rather ineffectual figure who proclaimed himself king of Corsica amid the island’s political turmoil in the 18th century. The book explores not only Neuhoff's questionable ambitions and schemes but also provides insight into the complex political landscape of Corsica during a time marked by revolutions and the quest for autonomy. At the start of the narrative, the Corsican political environment is depicted as unstable, with a populace yearning for a savior due to their longstanding struggles against Genoese rule. The text introduces Neuhoff, described as a baron from Westphalia, who arrives in Corsica in 1736, dressed peculiarly and with grand ambitions, intending to exploit the Corsican discontent for personal gain. However, Neuhoff's character is presented as flawed; he relies more on cunning and intrigue rather than on bold action, ultimately revealing his inadequacies as a leader. The opening sets the stage for a deeper exploration of his life and failures, alongside the historical context that shaped his brief and tumultuous reign.
