Marie Antoinette by Olivier Bernier Pdf

". . . [A] behind-the-scenes peek at Versailles . . . and an account of a fraught mother-daughter relationship. . . . [A] graceful guide . . ." - The New York Times This fascinating and poignant collection of letters between Marie Antoinette, the doomed dauphine and future queen of France, and her mother, Maria Theresa, archduchess of Austria and queen of Hungary and Bohemia, provide a revealing portrait of the legendary queen's tragic life and the age in which she lived. Beginning in 1770 when the young princess departed for France and ending with Maria Theresa's death in 1780, these intimate letters reveal the hostility the young dauphine encountered at Versailles, her flouting of court etiquette, and her interference in court politics. Maria Theresa offers her daughter constant advice on everything from matters of state to sex. These remarkable letters are superbly translated by Olivier Bernier, an acclaimed expert on eighteenth-century France, who also provides extensive commentary. "[Marie Antoinette] remains an unforgettable royalist heroine . . . she never fails to move us. [Olivier Bernier's] vision of complicated events is always clear and understandable; his theories of history rethought. . . . Donnez-moi mon Bernier!" - Vogue "[This book] will change our picture of eighteenth-century France and deepen our understanding of power, naiveté, and corruption." - Gloria Steinem.

Marie Antoinette: the Courageous End by Anonim Pdf

https://www.marieantoinettethecourageousend.com This chilling but ultimately life affirming novel about the agonising last year of Marie Antoinette’s turbulent life will help you understand the tragic queen and her ill-fated decisions, better. It will help you decide if the shameless, sex-mad, Marie Antoinette deserved to be guillotined. The Parisians thought so. What would you have thought if you had been there during the French Revolution in August 1792? Whose side would you have been on? The side of the French princes, 7,000 French aristocrats and 80,000 awesome Austrian and Prussian soldiers advancing on Paris to raze it to the ground, wreaking destruction across France as they advanced? Or the side of the starving people, fighting to protect their brand new National Assembly and their brand new rights to liberty, equality and fraternity? What would you have thought of your deceitful king, Louis XVI, and his spendthrift wife Marie Antoinette, who had secretly invited these formidable German armies to march on Paris – to restore their absolute monarchy and annihilate all your new rights? Would you have stormed Marie Antoinette’s palace with the downtrodden people? Would you have guillotined her? As the shrieking Parisians stormed their palace, the apathetic Louis XVI waited passively for death. whilst Marie Antoinette fought valiantly for her children and her throne. She wanted to live – for the sake of her darling son, whom she burned to see on the throne of France. Not to mention her darling comte Axel de Fersen, the handsome Swedish nobleman she had fallen in love with 18 years before. Yes, 36 year old Marie Antoinette had loved the dashing Fersen for 18 years, because her hopeless, sweet, liar of a husband – was never enough of a man for the tragic queen. Find out why in this novel, based on the memoirs of those who were there, and twenty years of research and translation of original French resources by MacLeod. The furious Parisians stormed Marie Antoinette’s palace and imprisoned her. And this once thoughtless, pleasure seeking queen transformed herself into the courageous, admirable queen she should always have been. But it was too late to save her life and her throne. If only she had changed while she still had time. If only the people had got to know the new admirable queen. Share Marie Antoinette’s agony as she dutifully remained at the side of her hopeless, sweet, liar of a husband, as the Parisians stormed her palace. Witness the last heart-breaking meeting between Marie Antoinette and her husband – before he was led off to the guillotine. Experience her anguish on the day they wrenched her shrieking little boy (now a child-king) out of her arms – forever. Feel for her 14 year old daughter on the night the revolutionaries came for Marie Antoinette. No wonder the queen’s beauty had faded! No wonder her hair had begun to turn white! Based on contemporary accounts, and with characters (most of whom were actual historical personages) speaking the very words they recall in their memoirs. Includes as extras: 20 pages of snippets from Marie Antoinette’s letters to her beloved comte Axel de Fersen, the love of her life: “Most loved and most loving of men.” And extracts from the moving memoirs of Marie Therese, Marie Antoinette’s daughter, about her disturbing 2 and a half years of imprisonment, after they guillotined her mother: “The guards came to search my room at four o’clock in the morning. They were all drunk and their oaths and blasphemy dare not be repeated.” No wonder Marie Antoinette’s daughter Marie Therese, the only survivor of the family’s imprisonment, seemed to suffer for the rest of her life. And of course, there was the simply wicked treatment of Marie Antoinette’s beloved son, which only ended with his merciful death, whilst in solitary confinement – although not before the child had endured two years of hell on earth. “His look seemed to say: ‘Dispatch your victim.’”

Marie Antoinette by Antonia Fraser Pdf

France's iconic queen, Marie Antoinette, wrongly accused of uttering the infamous "Let them eat cake," was alternately revered and reviled during her lifetime. For centuries since, she has been the object of debate, speculation, and the fascination so often accorded illustrious figures in history. Married in mere girlhood, this essentially lighthearted child was thrust onto the royal stage and commanded by circumstance to play a significant role in European history. Antonia Fraser's lavish and engaging portrait excites compassion and regard for all aspects of the queen, immersing the reader not only in the coming-of-age of a graceful woman, but in the culture of an unparalleled time and place.
