Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Sister of Prince Rupert: Elizabeth Princess Palatine and Abbess of Herford Since the publication of the only memoir of Elizabeth, Princess Palatine, in English, so much new material has come to light as to justify a new study of one of the least known of the Queen of Bohemia´s children, the eldest sister of Prince Rupert. Grateful thanks are therefore due to those who generously permitted the use of copyright letters: to Madame la Comtesse Foucher de Careil for the invaluable collection of those of the Princess to the philosopher Descartes, discovered and published by her late husband under the title Descartes, la Princesse Elisabeth, et la Reine Christine. Also to Herr Professor Doctor Jakob Wille, Principal Librarian of the Royal University Library at Heidelberg, who not only allowed me to make use of the immense collection of family letters edited by Herr Professor Karl Haucke in the Heidelberger Jahrbucher, but also to see them in proof, lest my work should be delayed. They throw much new light on the character of Elizabeth, and on her relations with her family. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
