Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book brings together the collected letters of Marguerite d'Angoulême, an enigmatic figure who has been celebrated and maligned in equal measure. Despite being a woman of great intellect in the turbulent sixteenth century, she has been overshadowed by the more famous men in her life - her brother, King Francois I, and her husband, King Henry II of Navarre. Through her letters, we finally hear her own voice, and a fascinating and complex woman is revealed. The daughter of the Comte and Comtesse d'Angoulême, Marguerite was born on the 11th of April, 1492. She was a precocious child, and received an excellent education, studying Latin, philosophy, and theology. In 1509, she married Charles, Duc d'Alençon, with whom she had no children. After Charles' death in 1525, she became the object of romantic intrigue and attempted seduction by the notorious Admiral Bonnivet. In 1527, Marguerite married Henri d'Albret, King of Navarre, and became a powerful political figure in her own right. She was a skilled diplomat, and played a key role in negotiating the release of her brother, Francois I, from captivity in Spain. She was also a patron of the arts and letters, and her court at Nà rac was a center of intellectual and artistic activity. Marguerite's religious beliefs were complex and unorthodox. She was accused of heresy by some, and her letters reveal a deep interest in mystical and spiritual matters. She was a close friend of the reformist Bishop of Meaux, Guillaume Briçonnet, and her own writings often express sympathy for the Protestant cause. However, she never broke with the Catholic Church, and remained a devout believer in the power of prayer. This new collection of Marguerite's letters provides a valuable resource for scholars and anyone interested in the history, literature, and culture of sixteenth-century France. It reveals the true face of a remarkable woman who was a major figure in her own time, and whose life and work continue to fascinate today.
