The Margravine of Baireuth and Voltaire is a historical book written by George Horn and published in 1888. The book is a detailed account of the relationship between the Margravine of Baireuth, Wilhelmine, and the French philosopher and writer, Voltaire.The Margravine of Baireuth was the sister of King Frederick the Great of Prussia and was known for her intelligence, wit, and love of the arts. Voltaire, on the other hand, was one of the most influential thinkers of the Enlightenment period and was known for his works on philosophy, politics, and literature.The book explores the correspondence between the Margravine and Voltaire, which began in 1736 and continued until 1753. The letters provide insight into the intellectual and cultural exchange between the two figures, as well as their personal lives and relationships.The Margravine and Voltaire's relationship was not without its challenges, and the book also delves into the conflicts and disagreements that arose between them. Despite this, their correspondence continued until Voltaire's death in 1778.Overall, The Margravine of Baireuth and Voltaire is a fascinating exploration of the relationship between two influential figures of the Enlightenment period and provides valuable insights into their lives and works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
