Marie Antoinette
Spion för Österrike, en korkad nymfoman utan verklighetsförankring, eller den mest missförstådda kungligheten av dem alla? Denna detaljrika dramadokumentär undersöker sanning och myt kring Frankrikes sista drottning, vars halvgalna sagotillvaro slutade under giljotinens bila den 16 oktober 1793. Marie Antoinette, dotter till den tysk-romerska kejsaren, skickades vid unga år till Frankrike för att bli prinsens gemål och säkra de europeiska kungaätternas makt. Det blev ett kontroversiellt giftermål på många sätt - kärlekslöst och skandaldrabbat av Antoinettes många påstådda otrohetsaffärer. Det pompösa festandet och slöseriet vid hovet klingade illa hos det svältande folket som törstade efter revolution och slutligen fick den. Följ med på en mytomspunnen, dekadent och storslagen livsresa ned i fördärvet!

Marie Antoinette
A seemingly endless parade of books, films and television shows have kept Marie Antoinette in the spotlight for over two centuries since her execution in October 1793. For many, she is the ignorant embodiment of foolish, careless, decadent excess, and a deserving example of the terrible fate that on occasion befalls members of the mega-wealthy ruling class who exploit and ignore the needs of those less fortunate than themselves. Meanwhile, for others, she is a source of endless fascination thanks to the flamboyant fashions of her era, the pastel-hued beauty of her surviving residences and, above all, the extraordinary drama of her almost unbelievable riches-to-rags life. She was a complex woman who lived in a remarkable time, and yet she was also a very simple one whose main desire in life was to love and be loved in return. This engaging and intimate biography of Marie Antoinette takes a fresh look at the story of this most fascinating and misunderstood of queens, exploring her

Day with Marie Antoinette
This beautifully illustrated book sheds new light on the personal life of Marie Antoinette and reveals hidden aspects of her Versailles. Marie Antoinette was a mirror of her time. Never before has a queen been so passionately admired and adulated, then hunted, vilified, and defamed. From the young queen playing a shepherdess on stage, unaware of the turmoil in the capital, to France's 'martyr queen,' the author demystifies the legend, unveiling the woman behind the queen, and the wife and mother behind the sovereign.By tracing her footsteps through Versailles, discovering her voice through her letters, and encountering little-known works in her private art collection, the reader gains new insight on the tragically brief life of a passionate, sensitive, dramatic, and captivating woman. Organized chronologically, with lavish new photography and a wealth of unpublished material, this is a nuanced portrait of Marie Antoinette and her Versailles.
