Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from La Grande Mademoiselle: 1627-1652 La Grande Mademoiselle was one of the most original persons of her epoch, though it cannot be said that she was ever of the first order. Hers was but a small genius; there was nothing extraordinary in her character; and she had too little influence over events to have made it worth while to devote a whole volume to her history - much less to prepare for her a second chronicle - had she not been an adventurous and picturesque princess, a proud, erect figure standing in the front rank of the important personages whom Emerson called "representative." Mademoiselle´s agitated existence was a marvellous commentary on the profound transformation accomplished in the mind of France toward the close of the seventeenth century, - a transformation whose natural reaction changed the being of France. I have tried to depict this change, whose traces are often hidden by the rapid progress of historical events, because it was neither the most salient feature of the closing century nor the result of a revolution.
