Paperback. Condición: New. An enthralling biography about one of the most intriguing women of the Victorian age: the first self-invented international social celebrity.Lola Montez was one of the most celebrated and notorious women of the nineteenth century. A raven-haired Andalusian who performed her scandalous "Spider Dance" in the greatest performance halls across Europe, she dazzled and beguiled all who met her with her astonishing beauty, sexuality, and shocking disregard for propriety. But Lola was an impostor, a self-invention. Born Eliza Gilbert, the beautiful Irish wild child escaped a stifling marriage and reimagined herself as Lola the Sevillian flamenco dancer and noblewoman, choosing a life of adventure, fame, sex, and scandal rather than submitting to the strictures of her era.Lola cast her spell on the European aristocracy and the most famous intellectuals and artists of the time, including Alexandre Dumas, Franz Liszt, and George Sand, and became the obsession of King Ludwig I of Bavaria. She then set out for the New World, arriving in San Francisco at the height of the gold rush, where she lived like a pioneer and performed for rowdy miners before making her way to New York. There, her inevitable downfall was every bit as dramatic as her rise. Yet there was one final reinvention to come for the most defiant woman of the Victorian age-a woman known as a "savage beauty" who was idolized, romanticized, vilified, truly known by no one, and a century ahead of her time.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Tras el exito de Reinas malditas, regresa Cristina Morato con las fascinantes vidas de cinco reinas que dejaron su huella en la Historia.Los retratos oficiales que muestran a las reinas ataviadas con suntuosos vestidos y cubiertas de joyas ocultan unas vidas marcadas por las desdichas y las tragedias personales.Algunas de ellas se encontraban lejos del trono al nacer, pero consiguieron cenir la corona por derecho propio y no por matrimonio. Isabel I de Inglaterra, hija de Ana Bolena, paso de ser una princesa bastarda a dar nombre al glorioso siglo en que reino; Catalina la Grande no dudo en ponerse al frente de un ejercito para derrocar a su esposo y dirigir con mano firme el imperio ruso, mientras que la emperatriz Cixi entro en la Ciudad Prohibida como concubina y goberno China oculta tras una cortina de seda. Hubo tambien reinas marcadas por la fatalidad que sobrevivieron en un mundo de intrigas: Catalina de Aragon, hija de los Reyes Catolicos y primera esposa de Enrique VIII, fue una de las soberanas mas amadas de Inglaterra. O la infeliz Carlota de Mexico, una joven y culta princesa belga que se convirtio en emperatriz de Mexico y perdio la razon tras el asesinato de su esposo, Maximiliano de Habsburgo.Despotas, libertinas, desalmadas, arpias, locas. son solo algunos de los adjetivos que engrosaron la leyenda negra de estas cinco soberanas. Cristina Morato da voz en este libro a las mujeres de carne y hueso que alcanzaron el poder en un mundo de hombres gracias a su inteligencia, valor y fortaleza y nos descubre que los mejores reyes fueron reinas.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONAfter the success of Reinas malditas [Damned Queens], Cristina Morato is back with the stories of five queens who left their marks on history. The official portraits depicting monarchs decked out with sumptuous dresses and jewels conceal lives marked by personal tragedy and misfortune. Several of these five women were born far from the seat of power but claimed the crown on their own right rather than through marriage. Elizabeth I, daughter of Anne Boleyn, rose from illegitimate princess to ruler of Englands Golden Age. Catherine the Great led an army to defeat her husband and guided the Russian Empire with a strong hand. Empress Cixi entered the Forbidden City as a concubine and governed China from behind a silk curtain. The two other women covered in this volume survived reigns marked by fateful intrigue: Catherine of Aragon, daughter of Spains Ferdinand and Isabel, was the first wife of Henry VIII and one of Englands most beloved queens; and the unfortunate Charlotte of Belgium, the educated young princess who became Empress of Mexico, slipped into insanity after the assassination of her husband, Maximilian of Austria.Despots, libertines, coldhearted, harpies, lunatics: These are just some of the terms that have been used to slander these five flesh and blood women who seized power in a male-dominated world, thanks to their intelligence, courage, and strength. In Cristina Moratos exploration of their lives, we discover that the best rulers were often queens. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
