Reading Guide: Queen of Fashion: What Marie Antoinette Wore to the Revolution Caroline Weber (2006)
Reading Guide: Queen of Fashion: What Marie Antoinette Wore to the Revolution Caroline Weber (2006) 1. In Queen of Fashion, Caroline Weber has a very specific argument. What is her argument, and do you think she supports it well? Why or why not? 2. Do you agree with the portrait the author presents of Marie Antoinette? Is it a fair portrait? Why or why not? 3. After reading this book, do you have a different impression of the legendary French queen? Do you sympathize with her? Why or why not? 4. In the chapter Stripped and the chapter Black, Weber correlates Marie Antoinette’s life with the mythical character Medea. Do you agree with her parallel? Why or why not? 5. Often, Marie Antoinette was seen as usurping the role of the King’s mistress, rather than playing the traditional part of the Queen. Why was this, and do you think this was a fair judgment by her contemporaries? 6. Why was there so much disapproval of Marie Antoinette’s donning of the gaulle, by both the royalty and the commoners, it was adopted as revolutionarily appropriate attire? 7. As a whole, how much of a role do you believe clothing played in the French Revolution?
