The Letters of Madame is a compilation of the correspondence of Elizabeth-Charlotte of Bavaria, also known as Princess Palatine and Duchess of Orleans, during her time at the court of King Louis XIV from 1661 to 1708. The letters were collected and edited by Gertrude Scott Stevenson and published in two volumes. The first volume contains letters from 1661 to 1682, while the second volume covers 1683 to 1708. The letters provide a unique insight into the daily life and political intrigues of the French court during the reign of Louis XIV, as well as the personal thoughts and feelings of one of its most prominent figures. The collection includes letters to family members, friends, and acquaintances, as well as to the king himself. The letters cover a wide range of topics, including court gossip, fashion, social events, family matters, and political affairs. Overall, The Letters of Madame is a valuable historical document that offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of the French court during the reign of Louis XIV.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
