Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Marie De Medicis, Vol. 3: Queen of France, Consort of Henri IV, and Regent of the Kingdom Under Louis XIII Brought to Trial - Weakness of the Ministers - Political Executions - Indignation of the People - The Princes Resolve to Liberate the Queen-Mother. It will be remembered that Marie de Medicis left the capital under a pledge from her son himself that she was at perfect liberty to change her place of abode whenever she should deem it expedient to do so; and that her sojourn at Blois was merely provisional, and intended as a temporary measure, to enable her to establish herself more commodiously in her own castle of Monceaux. Anxious for her absence, De Luynes had induced the King to consent to her wishes; but she had no sooner reached Blois than he determined that she should be compelled to remain there, as he dreaded her influence in a province of which she was the absolute mistress; and, accordingly, she had no sooner arrived in the fortress-palace on the Loire than he began to adopt the necessary measures for her detention.
