"Angélique de Mackau, Marquise de Bombelles, et la Cour de Madame Élisabeth" is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the life of Angélique de Mackau, detailing her significant connections with Madame Élisabeth, the sister of Louis XVI, as well as the intrigues and social dynamics of the 18th-century French court. Through letters, diaries, and archival documents, the narrative examines both Angélique's personal experiences and the broader historical context in which she lived. The opening of the book provides an insightful preface that sets the tone for the narrative to come. It introduces the milieu of the late 18th century, characterized by both intimate friendships and the complex competition of court life. We learn about the author’s aim to illuminate the life and character of Angélique, describing her qualities, education, and eventual marriage to the Marquis de Bombelles. The opening also outlines the relationships within her family and the influence of figures like Madame de Mackau, portraying the intricate social fabric of the era. The groundwork is laid for a deeper exploration of Angélique's life against the backdrop of the impending upheavals in French society and monarchy. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
