‎CHARLET DAVID ALAN‎

‎Atlas Of Nevada Conifers: A Phytogeographic Reference‎

‎University of Nevada Press Reno: 1996. Softcover. Brand new book. Atlas of Nevada Conifers is a major scientific contribution to our understanding of the ecology of Nevada. It documents in great detail the distribution of all native conifer species in the state�critical information because of the primary ecological importance of conifers for all organisms and because of the lack of documentation of these distributions in the scientific literature. Charlet maps and documents the exact location of herbarium records for 1600 individual trees. The data found in 23 tables and 22 range maps will serve as a primary reference for botanists land managers and conservation biologists for years to come. The level of detail in this work will be of great value to scientists investigating evolutionary questions with modern techniques using new DNA and allozyme technologies. Each occurrence of a species is precisely located in a mountain range and in one of fifteen western herbaria where specimens are stored. David Charlet received his B.S. and M.S. in Biology and his Ph.D. in Ecology Evolution and Conservation Biology from the University of Nevada Reno. He currently is a Professor at the Community College of Southern Nevada in the Las Vegas Valley where he teaches 10 biology and environmental science classes each year. "A definitive resource for botanists land managers and conservation biologists for decades to come. Author David Charlet's detailed maps and exhaustive records are like treasure maps to the many unexplored motherlodes of biodiversity waiting to be explored in the Great Basin." �David Lukas Great Basin News "This atlas documents Dr. Charlet's extensive field research to accurately identify the species and locations of the state's conifer stands precisely maps the distribution of all the species and significantly extends the known range of almost every species of pine fir spruce juniper and cedar in the state." �SciTech Book News University of Nevada Press, Reno: 1996 paperback‎

‎Adrienne Lecouvreur.‎

‎Paris ca. 1870. Original photograph carte de visite albumen print 9 x 55 cm. - Adrienne Lecouvreur April 5 1692 - March 20 1730 was a French actress. Born in Damery she first appeared professionally on the stage in Lille. After her Paris debut at the Com�die Fran�aise in 1717 she was immensely popular with the public until her mysterious death. She was credited with having developed a more natural less stylized type of acting. She had a romance with Maurice de Saxe which ended in tragedy when she was apparently poisoned by her rival the Duchess of Bouillon. The refusal of the Catholic Church to give her a Christian burial moved her friend Voltaire to write a bitter poem on the subject. Her life became the inspiration for a tragic drama by Scribe and Legouv�. on which Francesco Cilea's opera Adriana Lecouvreur is based. Photographie Charlet & Jacotin 37 Boult. de Strasbourg Paris.

‎Anna Boleyn.‎

‎Paris ca. 1870. Original photograph carte de visite albumen print 9 x 55 cm. - Anne Boleyn Marquess of Pembroke c.1501/1507 - 19 May 1536 also called Ann Bolin and Anne Bullen the Early Modern English pronunciation was the second wife and queen consort of Henry VIII and mother of Queen Elizabeth I. Henry's divorce from Catherine of Aragon and marriage to Boleyn was the beginning of political and religious upheaval which was the English Reformation with Anne promoting Church Reform. She was beheaded on charges of adultery and treason on 19 May 1536. Boleyn was the daughter of Thomas Boleyn 1st Earl of Wiltshire and 1st Earl of Ormonde and his wife Lady Elizabeth Boleyn born Lady Elizabeth Howard daughter of the 2nd Duke of Norfolk. It is not known for certain where she was born but it was either at her family's mansion of Blickling Hall in Norfolk or at their favourite home of Hever Castle in Kent. It was rumoured later in her life that she had been born with six fingers on her left hand at the time considered a sign of the devil probably as a reaction by Catholics following Henry VIII's separation from the church of Rome. She had two siblings: Her sister Mary was probably a little younger than she was and her brother George may have been older. The controversy about the order of the children is described by Ives 2005 pp16-17. Some claim Mary was younger than Anne some claim older. George was probably the youngest having been married last other than Anne who was of course courting the king at the time. In later life Boleyn did not have a particularly affectionate relationship with her father but in her childhood she was anxious to please him. Her relationship with her sister Mary was turbulent as she disagreed with Mary's second husband who was far below her- a common soldier and the two were not on speaking terms at the time of Anne's death. She enjoyed a much happier relationship with her mother and her brother both of whom she was very close to. The Boleyns were not high nobility and had only held power for four generations. Boleyn's father had married into the powerful Howard family. She had a very powerful aristocratic heritage; her great-grandparents included a Lord Mayor of London a duke an earl two aristocratic ladies and a knight. She was certainly more aristocratic than either Jane Seymour or Catherine Parr two of Henry's other wives. She was also the elder cousin of Henry's fifth wife Lady Catherine Howard. Boleyn's father was a respected diplomat with a gift for languages who had been a favourite of Henry VII and Henry VIII who sent him on many diplomatic missions abroad. In Europe Thomas Boleyn's professionalism and charm won many admirers including Archduchess Margaret of Austria the daughter of Maximilian I the Holy Roman Emperor. Margaret was currently ruling the Netherlands on behalf of her father and caring for her nephew and three nieces. Margaret was so impressed with him that she offered his youngest daughter Anne a place in her household. Ordinarily a girl had to be 12 years old to have such an honour but Anne might have been somewhat younger as Margaret affectionately referred to her as "la Petite Boleyn"; this appointment however is often used as evidence that Anne was born in 1501 not 1507. She made a good impression in the Netherlands with her manners and determination to work hard at her education. She is believed to have lived there from the spring of 1513 to the autumn of 1514. Anne Boleyn was not considered a great beauty of the time. Her body was too thin; her complexion too dark for the day's conventions of beauty. However many men commented on her magnificent dark eyes and beautiful dark hair. The most famous man to be attracted to her was of course King Henry VIII. Almost all artists of the day painted Anne with fair hair because artists of the day painted to flatter the "beauty" of the sitter. Anne also made up for her actual lack of conventional good looks with her fashion sense inspiring many new trends; she was probably the biggest fashion icon of her time. One Italian who met Anne in 1532 wrote that she was "not one of the handsomest women in the world" but others thought she was "competent belle" "quite beautiful" and "young and good-looking." Her vivacity was also considered attractive. William Forrest author of a contemporary poem about Catherine of Aragon complimented Anne's "passing excellent" skill as a dancer. "Here" he wrote "was a fresh young damsel that could trip and go." Her personality was complex and contradictory and it has been greatly distorted by those opposed to her controversial marriage and radical religious views. She was a devout Christian in the new tradition of Renaissance Humanism calling her a Protestant would be too strong. She also gave generously to charity and contrary to popular myth was extremely emotional. In her youth she was "sweet. Photographie Charlet & Jacotin 37 Boult. de Strasbourg Paris.

Charlotte penchait pour les id�es nouvelles. C��tait le temps o� les Girondins luttaient contre leurs ennemis � la Convention c��tait le temps o� le Jacobin Jean-Paul Marat repr�sentant pour elle la tyrannie triomphait � Paris.

Pourtant le fils de Marie Stuart le roi Jacques VI d'�cosse lui succ�de sous le nom de Jacques Ier. - Elizabeth Tudor was born on 7 September 1533 at Greenwich Palace. She was the daughter of King Henry VIII and his second wife Anne Boleyn. Henry had defied the papacy and the Holy Roman Emperor to marry Anne spurred on by love and the need for a legitimate male heir. And so Elizabeth's birth was one of the most exciting political events in 16th century European history; rarely had so much turmoil occurred on behalf of a mere infant. But the confident predictions of astrologers and physicians were wrong and the longed-for prince turned out to be a princess. Photographie Charlet & Jacotin 37 Boult. de Strasbourg Paris.

‎Madame de Maintenon.‎

‎Paris ca. 1870. Original photograph carte de visite albumen print 9 x 55 cm. - Madame de Maintenon. Fran�oise d'Aubign� marquise de Maintenon Niort 27 november 1635 - Saint-Cyr-l'�cole 15 april 1719 beter bekend als Madame de Maintenon was de tweede echtgenote van Lodewijk XIV van Frankrijk. Fran�oise d'Aubign� was een kleindochter van de schrijver Th�odore Agrippa d'Aubign� een vriend van Hendrik IV van Frankrijk en een bekend hugenoot. Zij werd katholiek opgevoed en bracht haar jeugd door op Martinique. In 1652 trouwde ze met de veel oudere dichter Paul Scarron. Via hem kwam ze in contact met belangrijke schrijvers en denkers uit haar tijd. Ook na zijn dood in 1660 bleef ze in Parijs literaire salons organiseren. In 1669 werd zij gevraagd om gouvernante te worden van de kinderen van Lodewijk XIV en Madame de Montespan. Toen de koning deze kinderen erkende en aan het hof te Versailles liet komen kwam zij steeds meer in contact met hem. Ze kreeg veel invloed op Lodewijk. Hij schonk haar in 1674 het kasteel van Maintenon ten westen van Parijs als markiezaat. Vanaf ongeveer 1680 was Madame de Maintenon de maitresse van Lodewijk XIV. Na het overlijden van koningin Maria-Theresia trouwde Madame de Maintenon in oktober 1683 in het geheim met Lodewijk XIV. Het was een morganatisch huwelijk. Ze zou mogelijk een grote invloed op de politiek van de koning gehad hebben; er wordt beweerd dat zij hem overhaalde het edict van Nantes in te trekken. Ze was de eerste hofdame in Versailles en duldde geen rivalen. Zo had ze een hekel aan de 17 jaar jongere Palatine; deze geeuwde tijdens de preek zong te luid tijdens processies en las alleen Duitse bijbels. Madame la Palatine had haar invloed niet aan haar uiterlijk te danken vandaar de hevige strijd tussen de twee dames. Na Lodewijks dood trok zij zich terug in Saint-Cyr-l'�cole waar ze in 1685 een kostschool had gesticht voor meisjes uit verarmde adellijke families. Ze overleed er in 1719.

‎Madame de Recamier.‎

‎Paris ca. 1870. Original photograph carte de visite albumen print 88 x 55 cm. - Jeanne Fran�oise Julie Ad�la�de R�camier December 4 1777 - May 11 1849 a famous Frenchwoman in the literary and political circles of the early 19th century was born at Lyon. Her maiden name was Bernard. She was married at fifteen to the banker Jacques R�camier d. 1830 who was more than old enough to be her father. Beautiful accomplished with a real love for literature she possessed at the same time a temperament which protected her from scandal and from the early days of the French Consulate to almost the end of the July Monarchy her salon in Paris was one of the chief resorts of literary and political society that pretended to fashion. The habitu�s of her house included many former royalists with others such as Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte and Jean Victor Marie Moreau more or less disaffected to the government. This circumstance together with her refusal to act as lady-in-waiting to Empress consort Jos�phine de Beauharnais and her friendship for Anne Louise Germaine de Sta�l brought her under suspicion. It was through Madame de Sta�l that Madame R�camier became acquainted with Benjamin Constant whose singular political tergiversations during the last days of the empire and the first of the restoration have been attributed to her persuasions. Madame R�camier was eventually exiled from Paris by the orders of Napoleon I of France. After a short stay at her native Lyon she proceeded to Rome and finally to Naples. There R�camier was on exceedingly good terms with Joachim Murat and his wife Caroline Bonaparte who were then intriguing with the Bourbons. She persuaded Constant to plead the claims of Murat in a memorandum addressed to the Congress of Vienna and also induced him to take up a decided attitude in opposition to Napoleon during the Hundred Days. Her husband had sustained heavy financial losses in 1805 and she visited Madame de Sta�l at Coppet in Switzerland. There was a project for her divorce in order that she might marry Prince Augustus of Prussia but though her husband was willing it was not arranged. In her later days she lost most of the rest of her fortune; but she continued to receive visitors at the Abbaye-aux-Bois the old Paris convent to which she retired in 1814. Here Fran�ois-Ren� de Chateaubriand was a constant visitor and in a manner master of the house; but even in old age ill-health and reduced circumstances Madame R�camier never lost her attraction. She seems to have been incapable of any serious attachment and although she numbered among her admirers Mathieu de Montmorency Lucien Bonaparte Prince Augustus of Prussia Pierre-Simon Ballanche Jean-Jacques Amp�re and Constant none of them obtained over her so great an influence as did Chateaubriand though she suffered much from his imperious temper. If she had any genuine affection it seems to have been for Amable Guillaume Prosper Brugi�re baron de Barante whom she met at Coppet. There are well-known portraits of her by Jacques-Louis David illustration above right in the Louvre and by Fran�ois Pascal Simon Baron G�rard in the possession of the prefecture of the Seine. In 1859 Souvenirs et correspondences tir�s des papiers de Madame R�camier was edited by Mme Lenormant.

‎Madame de S�vign�.‎

‎Paris ca. 1870. Original photograph carte de visite albumen print 9 x 55 cm. - Marie de Rabutin-Chantal marquise de S�vign� 5 f�vrier 1626 Paris - 17 avril 1696 Grignan est une femme de lettres fran�aise. Fille d'un gentilhomme bourguignon et de la descendante d'une famille de financiers elle se trouva tr�s vite orpheline. Jeanne de Chantal cofondatrice avec Fran�ois de Sales de l'ordre de la Visitation la confia � sa famille maternelle. Elle re�ut une bonne �ducation bien que M�nage et Chapelain n'y eurent point part contrairement � ce que rapporta ensuite la l�gende. � l'�ge de dix-huit ans le 4 ao�t 1644 elle �pousa Henri de S�vign�. Elle en eut : Fran�oise-Marguerite future comtesse de Grignan n�e le 10 octobre 1646 ; Charles n� le 12 mars 1648. Le 4 f�vrier 1651 Henri de S�vign� se battit en duel contre le chevalier d'Albret pour sa ma�tresse Mme de Gondran. Il mourut le surlendemain. Mme de S�vign� se trouva donc libre de mener sa vie � sa guise. Elle fr�quenta les salons en particulier celui de Fouquet voulant � �tre � tous les plaisirs � comme l'�crivit son cousin Bussy-Rabutin. En 1657 Mademoiselle de Scud�ry fit son portrait dans Cl�lie sous le nom de Clarinte. Mme de S�vign� partagea alors son temps entre sa r�sidence parisienne et sa demeure bretonne de Vitr� le ch�teau des Rochers-S�vign� h�rit� de son mari. Le 27 janvier 1669 sa fille �pousa Fran�ois de Grignan descendant d'une grande famille de Provence. Il s'installe d'abord � Paris mais en novembre il est nomm� lieutenant g�n�ral en Provence charge qui l'oblige � r�sider dans sa province. L'�loignement de sa fille � qui elle �tait tr�s attach�e fut pour la marquise de S�vign� la pire �preuve de sa vie. Le 6 f�vrier 1671 Mme de S�vign� envoie sa premi�re lettre � sa fille. Ce fut le d�but d'une longue correspondance qui dura jusqu'� sa mort en 1696. Elle fut inhum�e dans le caveau seigneurial. En 1793 des r�volutionnaires � la recherche de plomb pour les arm�es ouvrent son cercueil. Son cr�ne sera sci� pour le faire expertiser par un sp�cialiste de l'�poque. Un doute restait cependant sur la v�racit� de cette histoire et la pr�sence de ses restes dans ce caveau. Doute qui fut lev� � l'occasion de travaux de restauration de la coll�giale de Grignan en mai 2005: l'ouverture du caveau permit d'y trouver le cr�ne soigneusement referm�.

‎Madame de Chateauroux.‎

‎Paris ca. 1870. Original photograph carte de visite albumen print 85 x 54 cm. - Marie Anne de Mailly Duchesse de Chateauroux Mademoiselle de Monchy 1717-1744 Born 5 October 1717. Died 8 December 1744. Married 19 June 1734. Marquis Louis de La Tournelle son of Marquis Roger de La Tournelle and Charlotte du Deffand. Born 1728. Died 23 November 1740 Paris. Affaire with Louis XV King of France 1715-1774 son of Louis Duc de Bourgogne and Princess Marie Adelaide de Savoie. Born 15 February 1710 Versailles. Died 10 May 1774 Versailles. Mademoiselle de Monchy at the age of sixteen married the Marquis de La Tournelle and became known as Madame de La Tournelle. In 1739 her eldest sister Madame de Mailly became the mistress of King Louis XV but was replaced by her other sister Madame de Vintimille. In 1741 the latter died in childbirth and then it was to Madame de La Tournelle the king turned. Madame de La Tournelle was much prettier though far nastier than either of her sisters and stated her terms before accepting the king demanding the position and title of 'maitresse en titre'. Later on she was created Duchesse de Chateauroux and demanded a grand house in Paris jewels and a monthly income. Any children that might be born were to be legitimised. Louis XV deeply in love accepted all her demands. Although she used and abused the king yet she was probably the great passion of his life. In 1744 Louis XV on her instigation personally took command of his army in the spring offensive in the War of the Austrian Succession. However as the king refused to take the queen Madame de Chateauroux was also left behind. After a while without the king's summons she simply went to the front and the king was delighted.In August of 1744 the king became seriously ill and it was apparent he might die. To prepare himself he knew he had to dismiss his mistress and ask the queen to his side. When the people realised that she had been dismissed they threw rotting vegetables at her carriage and jeered and abused her. Madame de Chateauroux was shattered shocked by the loss of her protector and by the obvious hatred of the French. Screaming abuse mobs surrounded her house and when she dared venture out she was almost dragged out of her carriage. Ill she took to her bed. However the king did not die and as soon as possible returned to Versailles. Having no intention of changing his ways he sent for Madame de Chateauroux. It was December. Cold and weakened by her long confinement she rose too quickly from her sickbed caught a chill and collapsed with pneumonia. She died without ever seeing Louis XV again.

Emilie-Louise de Beauharnais est n�e le 8 janvier 1781 de Fran�ois de Beauharnais 1756-1846 et de Fran�oise de Beauharnais 1757-1822. Ses 2 parents �taient cousins ce qui explique qu'ils portent le m�me nom de famille. Fran�ois �tait le fr�re a�n� d'Alexandre 1760-1794 1er �poux de Marie-Joseph-Rose Tascher de la Pagerie connue sous le nom de Jos�phine de Beauharnais 1763-1814 future �pouse de Napol�on 1er. De part cette union Emilie �tait ainsi devenue la ni�ce par alliance de l'Imp�ratrice Jos�phine. Emilie �pouse Antoine-Marie Lavalette le 22 avril 1798 3 flor�al an VI � la mairie du 1er arrondissement de Paris. C'est Napol�on lui-m�me qui est � l'origine de cette union. Dans l'impossibilit� de faire Lavalette chef d'escadron il voulut en contrepartie lui faire �pouser la ni�ce de Jos�phine. Jos�phine lui pr�senta Emilie � Saint-Germain en Laye o� elle �tait pensionnaire � la Maison de la L�gion d'Honneur dirig�e alors par Madame Campan. 8 jours plus tard ils se mariaient . Le 1er avril 1802 nait de cette union une fille Jos�phine qui restera leur unique enfant. Quelques ann�es plus tard le 13 octobre 1815 Emilie accouche d'un second enfant mort-n�. A partir de 1800 Emilie devient la suivante de l'Imp�ratrice Jos�phine. Puis en 1804 elle est nomm�e dame d'atours jusqu'au divorce de Jos�phine en 1809 apr�s quoi elle se consacre � l'�ducation de sa fille Jos�phine. C'est le 20 d�cembre 1815 qu'Emilie est � l'origine d'un �v�nement qui restera c�l�bre : l'�vasion de Lavalette. En effet la veille de l'ex�cution de son mari Emilie se pr�sente � la Conciergerie en compagnie de sa fille Jos�phine. Pour la derni�re fois elle vient partager comme elle le fait chaque jour le diner avec son mari. Vers 7 heures du soir ils �changent leurs v�tements et c'est le Comte de Lavalette qui ressort de la cellule � l'insu des gardiens de la prison. Lorsque la supercherie est d�couverte il est trop tard et Lavalette a d�j� quitt� La Conciergerie dans une chaise � porteurs. Emilie reste alors emprisonn�e pendant 1 mois jusqu'au 23 janvier 1816 apr�s quoi elle est lib�r�e. Bien qu'affaiblie psychologiquement par toutes ces �preuves elle ne disparaitra qu'une quarantaine d'ann�es plus tard le 18 juin 1855 � l'�ge de 74 ans. Aucune information n'existe sur la derni�re partie de sa vie on peut supposer qu'elle resta reclue dans son appartement de Paris o� elle habitait alors.

‎Madame Roland.‎

‎Paris ca. 1870. Original photograph carte de visite albumen print 9 x 55 cm. Viscountess Jeanne Marie Roland de la Platiere born Manon Jeanne Philipon March 17 1754 - November 8 1793 became the wife of Jean Marie Roland de la Platiere and is better known simply as Madame Roland. Both she and her husband were famous figures of the French Revolution. She was the daughter of Gratien Philipon alternatively spelt Philippon a Paris engraver who was ambitious speculative and nearly always poor. From her early years she showed great aptitude for study an ardent and enthusiastic spirit and unquestionable talent. She was largely self-taught; and her love of reading acquainted her with Plutarch - an author she continued to cherish throughout her life - thereafter with Bossuet Massillon and authors of a like stamp and finally with Montesquieu Voltaire and Rousseau. As her studies developed under the influence of these authors she abandoned the idea of entering a convent and added to the enthusiasm for a republic which she had imbibed from her earlier studies she was inspired by her reading with cynicism and daring. She married Jean Marie Roland in 1781 every bit his equal in intellect and character. Through him and with him she exercised a singularly powerful influence over the destinies of France from the outbreak of the French Revolution till her death by guillotine. In the early days of their marriage Madame Roland wrote political articles for the Courrier de Lyon. When the couple moved to Paris she began to take an even more active role. Her salon on the rue Gu�n�gaud in Paris became the rendezvous of Brissot P�tion Robespierre and other leaders of the popular movement. An especially esteemed guest was Buzot whom she loved with platonic enthusiasm. In person Madame Roland is said to have been attractive but not beautiful; her ideas were clear and far-reaching her manner calm and her power of observation extremely acute. It was almost inevitable that she should find herself in the centre of political aspirations and presiding over a company of the most talented men of progress. The rupture between the Girondist party and that section still more extreme that of The Mountain had not yet occurred. For a time the whole left united in forcing the resignation of the ministers. However after Monsieur Roland had made a stand against the worst excesses of the Revolution the couple became very unpopular. Once Madame Roland appeared personally in the Assembly to repel the falsehoods of an accuser and her ease and dignity evoked enthusiasm and compelled acquittal. However the accusations continued. On the morning of June 1 1793 she was arrested and thrown into the prison of the Abbaye. Her husband escaped to Rouen. Released for an hour from the Abbaye she was again arrested and placed in Sainte-Pelagie. Finally she was transferred to the Conciergerie. In prison she was respected by the guards and was allowed the privilege of writing materials and occasional visits from devoted friends. There she wrote her Appel � l'impartiale post�rit� those memoirs which display a strange alternation between self-laudation and patriotism between the trivial and the sublime. She was tried on trumped up charges of harbouring royalist sympathies; the plain fact was that she was to be expunged as part of the purge by Robespierre of the Girondist opposition and was duly convicted. On November 8 1793 she was conveyed to the guillotine. Before placing her head on the block she bowed before the clay statue of Liberty in the Place de la R�volution uttering the famous remark for which she is remembered: O Libert� que de crimes on commet en ton nom! Oh Liberty what crimes are committed in thy name! Two days after her execution her husband Jean Marie Roland committed suicide. Photographie Charlet & Jacotin 37 Boult. de Strasbourg Paris.

‎Paris ca. 1870. Original photograph carte de visite albumen print 9 x 55 cm. - Photographie Charlet & Jacotin 37 Boult. de Strasbourg Paris. Maria Theresa Vienna May 13 1717 - November 29 1780 in Vienna was the first and only ruling Empress of the Habsburg dynasty. She was Archduchess of Austria and Queen of Hungary and Bohemia and ruler of other territories from 1740 until her death. She also became the Holy Roman Empress when her husband was elected Holy Roman Emperor. She was one of the so-called "enlightened despots" . She was one of the most powerful rulers of her time ruling over much of central Europe. Her Royal Highness Maria Theresa Archduchess of Austria Princess Royal of Hungary and Bohemia was the eldest daughter of Elisabeth Christine von Braunschweig-Wolfenb�ttel and Charles VI whose sole male heir - his son Leopold Johann - died as an infant in 1716. In 1713 Charles issued the Pragmatic Sanction which guaranteed his daughter the right to succeed to the Austrian throne and inherit his united lands on his death. Initially many European monarchs agreed to the Pragmatic Sanction when it was issued. However soon after Maria Theresa assumed the throne upon Charles' death on October 20 1740 the War of Austrian Succession began. Maria Theresa was married to Francis Stephen Duke of Lorraine. In the end she had 16 children by him with 11 daughters all of whom had the first name "Maria" and 5 sons surviving to adulthood. Her youngest daughter was Maria Antonia better known under her French name Marie Antoinette who would be promised in marriage to Louis heir apparent to the king of France later King Louis XVI. After her husband's death she made her son Joseph II co-regent of her Austrian dominions but she actually kept most of the power to herself which led to tension between her and her son. It was not until her death that he could fully exercise his powers. KEYWORDS:france/photo unknown‎

‎Marie Stuart.‎

‎Paris ca. 1870. Original photograph carte de visite albumen print 9 x 55 cm. - Maria I Mary Stuart of Stewart 8 december 1542 - 8 februari 1587 ook bekend als Mary Queen of Scots regeerde over Schotland vanaf 14 december 1542 tot 24 juli 1567. Zij was de dochter van koning Jacobus James V Stuart en Marie de Guise. Maria Stuart is misschien de bekendste Schotse monarch deels vanwege haar tragische levensgeschiedenis. Gedurende korte tijd was zij gehuwd met Frans II van Frankrijk en als dusdanig gedurende zeventien maanden koningin van Frankrijk tot aan de vroegtijdige dood van haar echtgenoot. Op haar 18e was zij al weduwe. Op 29 juli 1565 trouwde Maria onverwachts met Henry Stuart Lord Darnley een afstammeling van koning Hendrik VII van Engeland. Na de moord op Henry Stuart trouwde Maria met James Hepburn beter bekend als Bothwell. Maria I van Schotland wordt soms verward met haar nicht Maria I van Engeland die ongeveer tegelijkertijd leefde 1516 � 1558 en tegelijkertijd met Mary Queen of Scots regeerde. In 1567 werd Maria afgezet door Schotse edellieden en opgevolgd door haar zoon. Na een mislukte opstand vluchtte Maria naar Engeland waar ze aanvankelijk als eregast werd onthaald. Als katholieke nicht van de protestantse koningin Elisabeth I van Engeland maakte ze echter aanspraak op de Engelse troon. Katholieken vestigden hun hoop op Maria als de rechtmatige erfgename van de troon en de Schotse koningin werd aldus een bedreiging voor Elisabeth. Maria was bijna twintig jaar lang opgesloten in een afgelegen kasteel. In 1587 werd haar naam genoemd in het Babington plot een plan om Elisabeth te vermoorden en te vervangen door Maria. Of Maria daar werkelijk bij betrokken was is onduidelijk. Er wordt algemeen aangenomen dat zij is geslachtofferd door de protestantse regering. Na een schijnproces werd zij ter dood veroordeeld en onthoofd. Photographie Charlet & Jacotin 37 Boult. de Strasbourg Paris. KEYWORDS:france/photo unknown‎

Claudine Fran�oise Mignot commonly called Marie 20 January 1624 - 30 November 1711 French adventuress was born near Grenoble at Meylan. At the age of sixteen she attracted the notice of the secretary of Pierre des Portes d'Amblerieux treasurer of the province of Dauphin� and Amblerieux promised to promote their marriage. He married the girl himself however and left her his fortune. His will was disputed by his family and Claudine went to Paris in 1653 to secure its fulfilment. She sought the protection of Fran�ois de l'H�pital marshal of France then a man of seventy-five. He married her within a week of their first meeting and after seven years of marriage died leaving her part of his estate. They had one son c. 1654 - c. 1657. By a third and morganatic marriage in 1672 with John Casimir ex-king of Poland a few weeks before his death she received a third fortune. Immediately on her marriage with Amblerieux she had begun to educate herself and her wealth and talents assured her a welcome in Paris. They had one daughter Marie Catherine 1670 - after 1672. She retired in her old age to a Carmelite convent in the city where she died on 30 November 1711. Her history very much modified was the subject of a play by Bayard and Paul Duport Marie Mignot 1829.

‎Paris ca. 1870. Original photograph carte de visite albumen print 10 x 6 cm. - Photographie Charlet & Jacotin 37 Boult. de Strasbourg Paris. Princess Maria Teresa of Savoy-Carignan Marie Th�r�se 8 September 1749 - 3 September 1792 was a member of a cadet branch of the House of Savoy. She was married at the age of 17 to Louis Alexandre de Bourbon-Penthi�vre Prince de Lamballe the heir to the greatest fortune in France. After her marriage which lasted a year she went to court and became the confidante of Queen Marie Antoinette. She was killed in the massacres of September 1792 during the French Revolution. Marie Th�r�se was born in Turin. Her father was Louis Victor Prince of Carignano a maternal grandson of Victor Amadeus II of Sardinia and his mistress Jeanne d'Albert de Luynes. Her mother Landgravine Christine of Hesse-Rheinfels-Rotenburg was the daughter of Ernest Leopold Landgrave of Hesse-Rotenburg. Her aunts included Polyxena of Hesse-Rheinfels-Rotenburg the wife of Charles Emmanuel III of Sardinia Victor Amadeus III was her first cousin and Caroline Princess of Cond� and wife of Louis Henri Duke of Bourbon. Louis Joseph Prince of Cond� was another first cousin who was at the French court. On 31 January 1767 she married by proxy Louis Alexandre de Bourbon-Penthi�vre prince de Lamballe grandson of Louis XIV's legitimised son Louis Alexandre de Bourbon comte de Toulouse and the only surviving son of Louis de Bourbon-Toulouse Duke of Penthi�vre who had arranged the marriage. In 1768 at the age of nineteen Marie Th�r�se became a widow when her husband died of a venereal diseasecitation needed at the Ch�teau de Louveciennes. She inherited her husband's considerable fortune making her wealthy in her own right. She lived at the H�tel de Toulouse in Paris and at the Ch�teau de Rambouillet. On 4 January 1769 there was an announcement of the marriage of Marie Th�r�se's sister-in-law Mademoiselle de Penthi�vre heiress to the greatest fortune in France to the young Philippe d'Orl�ans duc de Chartres an old friend of the late prince de Lamballe. The princesse de Lamballe was present at every ceremony and the new Dauphine to whom she was presented was charmed with her and overwhelmed her with attentions which the spectators did not fail to notice. More than one saw even then the dawn of an intimacy which later was to give so much trouble to the two friends. The "Gazette de France" mentions Madame de Lamballe's presence in the chapel at high mass on Holy Thursday at which the king was present accompanied by the royal family the Dukes of Bourbon and Penthi�vre. In May she went to Fontainebleau and was there presented by the king to her cousin the future Countess of Provence attending the supper after. She was present at the birth of the future Louis-Philippe of France in Paris in October 1773. In September following the accession of her husband to the throne in May 1774 Queen Marie Antoinette appointed Marie Th�r�se "Superintendent of the Queen's Household" the highest rank possible for a lady-in-waiting at Versailles. Her pre-eminence in courtly high society would eventually be eclipsed by that of Yolande de Polastron duchesse de Polignac who arrived at Versailles in 1775. Marie Th�r�se was by nature reserved and there was never any gossip about her private life. However in popular anti-monarchist propaganda of the time she was regularly portrayed in pornographic pamphlets showing her as the queen's lesbian lover to undermine the public image of the monarchy.

‎CHARLET & JACOTIN.‎

‎Portrait of Marie Antoinette.‎

‎Paris ca. 1870. Original photograph albumen print 10 x 6 cm. - Photographie Charlet & Jacotin 37 Boult. de Strasbourg Paris. Marie Antoinette; baptised Maria Antonia Josepha or Josephina Johanna; 2 November 1755 - 16 October 1793 born an Archduchess of Austria was Dauphine of France from 1770 to 1774 and Queen of France and Navarre from 1774 to 1792. She was the fifteenth and penultimate child of Holy Roman Empress Maria Theresa and Emperor Francis I. In April 1770 upon her marriage to Louis-Auguste Dauphin of France she became Dauphine of France. She assumed the title Queen of France and of Navarre when her husband ascended the throne as Louis XVI upon the death of his grandfather Louis XV in May 1774. After seven years of marriage she gave birth to a daughter Marie-Th�r�se Charlotte the first of her four children. Initially charmed by her personality and beauty the French people eventually came to dislike her accusing "L'Autrichienne" which literally means the Austrian woman but also suggests the French word "chienne" meaning bitch of being profligate promiscuous and of harbouring sympathies for France's enemies particularly Austria her country of origin. The Diamond Necklace incident damaged her reputation further although she was completely innocent in this affair. She later became known as Madame D�ficit because France's financial crisis was blamed on her lavish spending. The royal family's flight to Varennes had disastrous effects on French popular opinion: Louis XVI was deposed and the monarchy abolished on 21 September 1792; the royal family was subsequently imprisoned at the Temple Prison. Eight months after her husband's execution Marie Antoinette was herself tried convicted by the Revolutionary Tribunal of treason to the principles of the revolution and executed by guillotine on 16 October 1793. Long after her death Marie Antoinette is often considered to be a part of popular culture and a major historical figure being the subject of several books films and other forms of media. Some academics and scholars have deemed her frivolous and superficial and have attributed the start of the French Revolution to her; however others have claimed that she was treated unjustly and that views of her should be more sympathetic.

‎CHARLET & JACOTIN.‎

‎Portrait of Fran�ois-Ren� vicomte de Chateaubriand.‎

‎Paris ca. 1870. Original photograph carte de visite albumen print 10 x 6 cm. - Photographie Charlet & Jacotin 37 Boult. de Strasbourg Paris. Fran�ois-Ren� vicomte de Chateaubriand; 4 September 1768 - 4 July 1848 was a French writer politician diplomat and historian. He is considered the founder of Romanticism in French literature. Descended from an old aristocratic family from Brittany Chateaubriand was a royalist by political disposition and in an age when a significant part of the intelligentsia was turning against the Church authored the G�nie du christianisme in defence of the Catholic faith. It is his autobiography M�moires d'outre-tombe "Memoirs from Beyond the Grave'" published posthumously 1848-1850 however that is nowadays generally considered his most accomplished work. Born in Saint-Malo the last of ten children Chateaubriand grew up in his family's castle in Combourg Brittany. His father Ren� de Chateaubriand 1718-86 was a former sea captain turned ship owner and slave trader. His mother's maiden name was Apolline de Bed�e. Chateaubriand's father was a morose uncommunicative man and the young Chateaubriand grew up in an atmosphere of gloomy solitude only broken by long walks in the Breton countryside and an intense friendship with his sister Lucile. Chateaubriand was educated in Dol Rennes and Dinan. For a time he could not make up his mind whether he wanted to be a naval officer or a priest but at the age of seventeen he decided on a military career and gained a commission as a second lieutenant in the French Army based at Navarre. Within two years he had been promoted to the rank of captain. He visited Paris in 1788 where he made the acquaintance of Jean-Fran�ois de La Harpe Andr� Ch�nier Louis-Marcelin de Fontanes and other leading writers of the time. When the French Revolution broke out Chateaubriand was initially sympathetic but as events in Paris became more violent he decided to journey to North America in 1791. This experience would provide the setting for his exotic novels Les Natchez written between 1793 and 1799 but published only in 1826 Atala 1801 and Ren� 1802. His vivid captivating descriptions of nature in the sparsely settled American Deep South were written in a style that was very innovative for the time and spearheaded what would later become the Romantic movement in France. Later scholarship has cast doubt on Chateaubriand's claim that he had been granted an interview with George Washington or whether he actually lived for a time with the Native Americans he wrote about. Chateaubriand returned to France in 1792 and subsequently joined the army of Royalist �migr�s in Coblenz under the leadership of Louis Joseph de Bourbon Prince de Cond�. Under strong pressure from his family he married a young aristocratic woman also from Saint-Malo whom he had never previously met C�leste Buisson de la Vigne. In later life Chateaubriand would be notoriously unfaithful to her having a series of love affairs. His military career came to an end when he was wounded at the siege of Thionville a major clash between Royalist troops and the French Revolutionary Army. Half-dead he was taken to Jersey and exile in England leaving his wife behind. Chateaubriand spent most of his exile in extreme poverty in London scraping a living offering French lessons and doing translation work but a stay in Suffolk was more idyllic. Here Chateaubriand fell in love with a young English woman Charlotte Ives but the romance ended when he was forced to reveal he was already married. During his time in Britain Chateaubriand also became familiar with English literature. This reading particularly of John Milton's Paradise Lost which he later translated into French prose would have a deep influence on his own literary work. His exile forced Chateaubriand to examine the causes of the French Revolution which had cost the lives of many of his family and friends; these reflections inspired his first work Essai sur les R�volutions 1797. An attempt in 18th Century style to explain the French Revolution it predated his subsequent romantic style of writing and was largely ignored. A major turning point in Chateaubriand's life was his conversion back to the Catholic faith of his childhood around 1798. KEYWORDS:france/photo unknown‎
