Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of the Court of England in 1675 Marie Catherine le Jumelle de Berneville was born, according to the Biographie Universelle and kindred publications, about 1655, which would make her twenty years old when the material was collected for the present work. She must have been older than this. These are not the observations of sweet and twenty, even when sweet and twenty is a French woman and married, and a daughter of the precocious seventeenth century to boot. Although Marie Catherine´s Autobiography exists, the difficulty of constructing an account of her life is so great as to render it an almost impossible task. Madame Carey, who edited a French edition of her Travels into Spain and her Memoirs of the Court of Spain, contented herself, in her footnotes, with commenting on the work in hand, while Lady Ritchie, who apparently was not aware of the Memoires de la Cour d´Angleterre, is mainly occupied, in her interesting introduction to an arrangement of the Fairy Tales, by an appreciation of the Travels into Spain, a work with which she fell obviously in love.
