Christmas Summary ClassicsThis series contains summary of Classic books such as Emma, Arne, Arabian Nights, Pride and prejudice, Tower of London, Wealth of Nations etc. Each book is specially crafted after reading complete book in less than 30 pages. One who wants to get joy of book reading especially in very less time can go for it. About The BookMarguerite Jeanne de Launay, Baronne de Staal, was born in Paris on May 30, 1684. Her father was a painter of the name of Cordier who was in England when his daughter was born; and the name by which she was known, de Launay, was that of her mother's family. Her story is told by herself, with admirable sincerity, in these Memoirs, which follow her life until the year 1735, when, at the age of fifty-one, she married Baron de Staal, a widower and an officer in the Guard. Her death took place in Paris on June 16, 1750. Her Memoirs, first published in 1755, are among the most interesting records of that period, and though their historical accuracy has been doubted, her portraits of persons are vivid and convincing. Her style has been highly commended by Sainte-Beuve and other French literary critics.For more eBooks visit www.kartindo.com

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 283
Book Description
Excerpt from Memoirs of Madame De Staël and of Madame Roland Il me semble voir en elle une de ces belles Grecques, qui enchantaient et ubjugaient le monde. Elle a plus de talents encore que d'amour propre; mais des talents si rares doivent nécessairement exciter le désir de les developper; et je ne sais pas quel theatre peut suffire a cetre activite d'imagination, a caractére ardent eufin qui se fait sentir dans toutes ses paroles. Corinne. In a gallery of celebrated women, the first place unquestionably belongs to Anne Maria Louise Germaine Necker, Baroness de Stael Holstein. She was the only child of James Necker, the famous financier, (a long time the popular idol in France), and of Susanna Curchod, the daughter of a poor Swiss clergyman, who in the sequestered village of Crassy bestowed upon her as thorough an education as fell to the lot of any woman in Europe. Gibbon, the historian, visited the father of Mademoiselle Curchod, and became a captive to her charms. He tells the story in his own Memoirs, where he informs us, that 'she was learned without pedantry, lively in conversation, pure in sentiment, and elegant in manners: her wit and beauty were the theme of universal applause.'
