The book is a collection of letters between three influential women in French history: Madame, Princess Palatine, the mother of the Regent; Marie-Adelaide De Savoie, the Duchess of Burgundy; and Madame De Maintenon, who was the second wife of King Louis XIV. The letters focus on their discussions about Saint-Cyr, a school for girls founded by Madame De Maintenon. The book provides a fascinating insight into the lives and thoughts of these powerful women and their views on education for women during the 17th and 18th centuries in France. The letters are translated into English and provide a unique perspective on the history of France during this time period. Overall, The Correspondence Of Madame, Princess Palatine, Mother Of The Regent: Of Marie-Adelaide De Savoie, Duchesse De Bourgogne, And Of Madame De Maintenon, In Relation To Saint-Cyr (1899) is a must-read for anyone interested in French history, women's education, and the lives of influential women in the past.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
