Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Duc De Lauzun: And the Court of Louis XV In the first chapter of this work will be found the reasons which led me to write the life of the Duc de Lauzun. In this short preface I propose merely to refer to the Memoirs of which he is the reputed author, and to discuss their authenticity, which has been frequently disputed. This, briefly, is the history of the manuscript published under the Restoration with the title: Memoires du Duc de Lauzun. In 1811 the Imperial police authorities were informed that a manuscript left by the Duc de Lauzun was about to be printed, and would give rise to great scandal. The manuscript was seized. Queen Hortense desired to read it, and succeeded in obtaining the loan of it for a few days. She had it copied in all haste; the original Ms. was then returned to the Minister of Police, and burnt, it was said, in the Emperor´s private room and under his very eyes. It was from a copy of the copy preserved by Queen Hortense that the first edition of the "Memoires de Lauzun" was printed, and published in 1821 by Barrois aine.
