Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History Friedrich II. Of Prussia, Vol. 6 of 10: Frederick the Great To the Court of Vienna, especially to the Hungarian Majesty, this wonderful reconquest of Bohemia, without battle fought, - or any cause assignable but Traun´s excellent mancoeuvring and Friedrich´s imprudences and trust in the French, - was a thing of heavenly miracle; blessed omen that Providence had vouchsafed to her prayers the recovery of Silesia itself. All the world was crowing over Friedrich: but her Majesty of Hungary´s views had risen to a clearly higher pitch of exultation and triumphant hope, terrestrial and celestial, than any other living person´s. "Silesia back again," that was now the hope and resolution of her Majesty´s high heart: "My wicked neighbour shall be driven out, and smart dear for the ill he has done; Heaven so wills it!" ´Very little uplifts the Austrians, says Valori; which is true, under such a Queen; and yet there is nothing that can crush them altogether down,´ adds he. No sooner is Bohemia cleared of Friedrich, than Maria, winter as it is, orders that there be, through the Giant-Mountains, vigorous assault upon Silesia.
