ELISABETH 316 LIFE AND LETTERS OF MADAME ELISABETH DE FRANCE. PART FIRST. CHAPTEE I. Introductory. Sketch of the Life of Madame Elisabeth from her Child- hood until August 10, 1792. MANY records of Madame Elisabeth exist, but only two of " real authority : the Eloge historique de Mme. Elisabeth de France," by Antoine Ferrand, minister of State and peer of first in 1814 and in 1861 and the France, published again ; " Vie de Madame Elisabeth," by M. A. de Beauchesne, Paris, 1869. Both works contain a number of her letters. From these volumes the following record has been made, chiefly in their own (translated) words. The parts selected are the simple historical facts of Mme. Elisabeth's story. The other parts may not be false, far be it from us to say they are, but they are so romantically tender as to convey a sense of extravagance, and thus do injury to the noble figure which the truth presents. For instance, it is recorded by her biog- raphers that as her head fell into the basket a perfume of roses was wafted over the Place Louis XV. The impression that we of the present day receive from such a statement is i LIFE, AND LETTERS OF [CHAP. i. of anol the essential truth is in folly .f ulsoma .flattery ;- -3?;et : the simple fafcts; wlier-e' the^iDadying actions of the just Smell sweet, and blossom in the dust. This record of Madame Elisabeth is here followed by the " Journal of the Temple," written by Cle'ry, the valet who at- tended on Louis XVI. to the last hour of his life, and by the far more valuable and even precious Narrative of that em- bodiment of sorrow, Marie-The'rese de France, daughter of Louis XVI. and Marie-Antoinette, and later Duchesse d'An- gouleme. There we see the end of the great French mon- archy (for the restored kings were not the monarchy). No one can read this series of Memoirs Saint-Simon, d'Argen- son, Bernis without realizing the causes of that mighty of fall ; not to be found so much in the career the Great Monarch as in the lowered standards he left behind him, the corruption of the regency, and the long reign of his great-grandson's vice and ineptitude which consolidated the wrongs of France. it is One fact shines clear above this mass of evil ; and allowable to call the attention of the reader to it forcibly. Beside the enervating depravity of the Eegent, the personal cowardice and sloth of Louis XV., the lack of firmness and regal assertion of Louis XVI. and his brothers, stands the splendid courage, physical and moral, of the three women whose ends are here recorded. Elisabeth-Philippine-Marie-Helene de France, daughter of the Dauphin Louis, son of Louis XV., and Marie-Josephe de Saxe, was bom at Versailles, May 3, 1764. Her three brothers, the Due de Berry, the Comte de Provence, and the Comte d'Artois, were taken to the chapel on the same day, immediately after the king's mass, to witness her baptism, at which were present also the king and queen, the king's sis- 1792] MADAME ELISABETH DE FRANCE. 3 ters Mesdames Adelaide, Victoire, Sophie, and Louise, the Due d'Orle'ans, the Due de Chartres, the Prince de Conde', the Prince and Princesse de Conti, the Due de Penthievre, the Prince de Lamballe, and others. At her birth Madame Elisabeth was so delicate that for her existence a months was source of continual anxiety. Her father died the following year, and her mother, the wise and excellent Dauphine Marie-Josephe, in 1767. The little orphan was then given wholly to the care of the Comtesse de Marsan (daughter of the Prince de Soubise), governess of the Children of France, who was already bringing up Elisa- beth's sister, Madame Clotilde de France, afterwards Queen of Sardinia, who was four years and eight months older than Elisabeth. The difference in character and temper was greater still. Clotilde was born with the happiest disposi- tion, which needed only to be encouraged and aided. Elisa- beth was different it was often to her very ; necessary oppose nature, and always to direct it. Proud, inflexible, passionate, she had defects to be mastered which would have been re- in a lower rank in a of blood grettable ; princess royal they were intolerable. The task of Mme. de Marsan was a diffi- cult one. Madame Elisabeth's self-will was powerful, proud of her birth, she exacted around her supple instruments of it to ; she said she had no need learn and tire herself use- lessly, inasmuch as princes had about them persons whose duty it was to think for them. She stamped with anger if one of her women did not immediately bring her the thing she asked for. The difference in the characters of the sisters made a difference in the feelings of their governess towards each. Jealousy came to increase the asperity of the younger sister's nature. "If Clotilde had asked you," she said, one day, when Mme. de Marsan had refused a request, " she would have had it." 4 LIFE AND LETTERS OF [CHAP. i. But Elisabeth was taken ill, and Clotilde insisted on taking care of her. This illness developed between them feelings of the tenderest affection; Clotilde taught her little sister the alphabet and how to spell and form words, she gave her little counsels which tended to soften her character, and she inculcated in her the first notions of religion with which she was already nourishing her own soul. Still, Mme. de Marsan felt the want of aid in seconding the reform in the child's nature which she had so much at heart to bring about, and she cast her eyes on Mme.

  • The Pitiful King: Tears, Blood, and Family in Revolutionary Royalism
    The Pitiful King: Tears, Blood, and Family in Revolutionary Royalism Victoria Murano Submitted to Professors Lisa Jane Graham and Linda Gerstein In partial fulfillment of the requirement of History 400: Senior Thesis Seminar Murano 1 Abstract When the French Revolution erupted in 1789, revolutionaries strove to foster a sense of freedom of expression, guaranteeing a brief freedom of the press. The eleventh article of the 1791 Declaration of the Rights of Man asserts that “The free communication of thoughts and opinions is one of man’s most precious rights; all citizens may therefore speak, write, print freely, except to answer for the abuse of this liberty in cases determined by law.” However, as France became further embroiled in the Revolution, it abandoned its allegiance to the universality of these rights, propagating pro-republican thought, and persecuting anyone who did not share these views. The royalist press was a major concern to the new republican government, because it continued to speak out in support of the king and criticize the Revolution. The existence of royalist journalists and writers thus posed a problem for revolutionaries who wanted to establish a monolithically-minded republic. Therefore, over time, they enacted repressive censorship and punishment to crack down on royalist sympathizers. Although they sent many royalist writers to prison or the guillotine, the revolutionaries ultimately failed to silence their political enemies. This thesis uses newspapers, images, and other printed media to explore royalist coverage of three events that diminished royal power: Louis XVI’s flight to Varennes in June 1791, his execution in January 1793, and the death of his nine-year-old son and heir, Louis XVII, in June 1795.

  • Éphéméride De L'année 1663
    Éphéméride année 1663 Chronologie moliéresque : les « Éphémérides » de François Rey (1658-1669) François Rey a établi ces « éphémérides » lorsqu’il préparait son livre intitulé Molière et le roi. L’affaire Tartuffe (avec Jean Lacouture) paru aux éditions Fayard en 2006), ce qui explique qu’il les ait interrompus à la fin de l’année qui a vu la création publique de Tartuffe après presque cinq années d’interdiction. Il a eu la générosité de mettre à notre disposition cet inestimable instrument de travail, nous autorisant en même temps à le diffuser plus largement selon le moyen qui nous paraîtrait le mieux approprié. Nous le publions donc sur le site MOLIÈRE 21, après avoir simplement adapté la mise en pages (passée du mode « paysage » au mode « portrait ») et supprimé, comme il nous l’avait demandé, ceux de ses commentaires personnels qui constituaient des jalons d’attente pour une recherche plus approfondie (« à développer », « à confirmer », etc.). Nous le remercions une fois de plus infiniment.

ISBN: 978-2-262-03244-9. Review by Ambrogio Caiani, University of Kent. The expectations of others and the endeavor to satisfy them tend to present insurmountable difficulties for any individual. There is a desperate desire to please which is almost always inevitably counter-balanced by an incapacity to do so. Unfortunately for Marie Thérèse of France, the daughter of that motley regal couple, Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette, this was her destiny. Her birth, the last to be witnessed publically by the entire court of Versailles on 19 December 1778, was a decided anti-climax. The event had been eagerly anticipated after her parents’ failure to consummate their marriage for over seven years.[1] To the disappointment of all involved, the child was not the long hoped for male dauphin, but a female princess, whose ultimate destination would be the Catholic dynastic marriage market. These prospects too were to be thwarted, or delayed rather, by the revolutionary upheavals of the 1790s. After her parents’ execution in 1793, Marie Thérèse became the living symbol and hope for French royalism. The orphan of the temple prison, as she was known, became a unifying figure around which a deeply divided émigré community could rally, and a victim whose injuries needed to be avenged.[2] Her rescue was never a real possibility, and she was released in 1795 in a far from triumphant prisoner of war exchange.

Elisabeth Louise Vigee Le Brun: A Historical Survey of a Woman Artist in the Eighteenth Century By Evangelia Karvouni1 Abstract Elisabeth Louise Vigee Le Brun may be considered one of the most celebrated women artists of eighteenth century France. The elegance of her style and her ability to produce idealized images of her noble sitters made her increasingly popular within royalist circles. She was particularly favoured by the Queen Marie Antoinette whom she painted in a manner that provoked controversy among the critics and the public. Vigee Le Brun’s approach to her royal subject was very sentimental as it can be seen from her statements in her autobiography, the “Memoirs”.
