Book Description

Publication Date: November 11, 1994

Parisian nobility in the reign of Louis XVI is usually dismissed as a privileged, frivolous, and decadent Ã©lite, a cause of revolution in France rather than a catalyst for reform. Farr draws on contemporary sources to provide an insight not only into the royal infamous love affairs and scandals, but also the relations between king and court, the aristocracy's support for liberty and equality long before the unwahsed jumped on the wagon, and the increasing isolation and unpopularity of Marie-Antoinette"" - Reference & Research Book News.
