Toward the end of his life, the Chevalier de Seingalt (1725-1798) wrote a long memoir recounting his life and adventures. The Chevalier was a somewhat controversial figure, but since he met many famous people, including kings and writers, his memoir has become a valuable historical source about European society in the eighteenth century. However, some critics have raised doubts about the accuracy of the memoir. They claim that the Chevalier distorted or invented many events in the memoir to make his life seem more exciting and glamorous than it really was.
For example, in his memoir the Chevalier claims that while living in Switzerland, he was very wealthy, and it is known that he spent a great deal of money there on parties and gambling. However, evidence has recently surfaced that the Chevalier borrowed considerable sums of money from a Swiss merchant. Critics thus argue that if the Chevalier had really been very rich, he would not have needed to borrow money.
Critics are also skeptical about the accuracy of the conversations that the Chevalier records in the memoir between himself and the famous writer Voltaire. No one doubts that the Chevalier and Voltaire met and conversed. However, critics complain that the memoir cannot possibly capture these conversations accurately, because it was written many years after the conversations occurred. Critics point out that it is impossible to remember exact phrases from extended conversations held many years earlier.
Critics have also questioned the memoir's account of the Chevalier's escape from a notorious prison in Venice, Italy. He claims to have escaped the Venetian prison by using a piece of metal to make a hole in the ceiling and climbing through the roof. Critics claim that while such a daring escape makes for enjoyable reading, it is more likely that the Chevaliers jailers were bribed to free him. They point out that the Chevalier had a number of politically well-connected friends in Venice who could have offered a bribe.
The reading states that Chevalier memoir is plausible and provides three reasons of support. However, the lecturer challenges the claims made by the author. He explains that Chevalier memoir's are believable and has a reliable historical source and then lecturer refutes each of the author's claims.
First of all, the reading states that since Chivalier had borrowed considerable amount of money from swiss merchanct, so critics argue that Chevalier was a rich man and spent lot of money on parties and gambling. This psecific argument is challenged by the lecturer. He says that to considere
borrowing not to indicate that he was a poor. Additionally, the lecturer claims that he had alots of assest then to convert his asset into money and spent in on perties and gambloing. if they had not enough money it would not possible.so, this argumer's argument does not hold water.
Secondly, the lecturer posits that it would not possible to capure every conversation accurately
between Chevalier and voltaire. In the article it is said that it is not possible to remeber exact phrases from extended conversation held from many years.The lecturer, however, rebuts this claim that
Chevalier made it possible because he wrote down every important things after their conversation.
Furthermore, lecturer says that Chevalier mainatin his notes during long time and then he write down his memoir. thus it could possible because he confirm this after the consultan woth journal and his own mwmory.
Finally, the arguer claims that Critics hade made some doubtes of the Chevalier memoir's to
escape from the notorious prison in venice. Moreover, the article says that Chevalier's escaping from prisom not by the uses a piece of metal to make a hole in the ceiling and climbing through the roof, he actually had a number of political friends and they would offered a bride. In contrats, the lecturer's position is that other prisoner also had a friends but they did not occure any helps so, it is possibility thet Chevalier escape from the prison by the uses of metal. Furthermore, the jailer report revelas that jail made some repair and this is actually indicate the Chevalier escape.
