Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Conspiracy Under the Terror: Marie Antoinette Toulan Jarjayes It might have been expected that, after the 21st of January, the King´s death would have fully satisfied the revolutionary passions which the Convention had so willingly obeyed, and that the prisoners who were still at the Temple - the Queen, Madame Elisabeth, and the royal children - would no longer have had to fear for their lives. Such vain hopes, however, were not lasting, and it soon became plain to all who were interested in the fortunes of the Royal Family that its members, and especially Marie Antoinette, would soon be in danger of death. Far from being appeased by misfortune, the hatred which had so long been felt against Marie Antoinette, who was called l´Autrichienne (´the Austrian´), had grown more violent and more bitter against her since the war had become almost general, and had united Prussia, Austria, England, Spain, Holland, and Sardinia in their struggle against France, or rather against the French Revolution. Events were fast succeeding one another, and the situation was now assuming a very gloomy aspect. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
