The Rabelaisian Princess: Madame Royal of France is a biography written by Harold Donaldson Eberlein that explores the life of Marie-Th�����r�����se Charlotte, the eldest daughter of King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette of France. The book delves into her childhood, her experiences during the French Revolution, her imprisonment, and her eventual release and exile to Austria.Eberlein paints a vivid portrait of the princess, who was known for her wit, intelligence, and rebellious spirit. He describes her love of literature and her fondness for the works of Rabelais, which earned her the nickname The Rabelaisian Princess. The book also explores her relationships with her family members, including her parents, siblings, and aunts and uncles.Throughout the book, Eberlein provides historical context for the events that shaped the princess's life, including the rise of the French Revolution, the fall of the monarchy, and the Reign of Terror. He also examines the role of women in 18th century France and the challenges faced by royal women during this turbulent period.Overall, The Rabelaisian Princess: Madame Royal of France offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who lived through one of the most tumultuous periods in French history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in French history, women's history, or the lives of royalty.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
