Pages : 336
Book Description
Excerpt from The Life of Carmen Sylva, Queen of Roumania The following pages are a translation of Baroness Stackelberg's book, "Aus dem Leben Carmen Sylva's." Having known "Monrepos" from my childhood, and "Segenhaus" since it was built, it was but a labour of love to me to render this account of "Carmen Sylva," and the distinguished family to which Her Majesty belongs, in English. I have also thought that many who do not read German might be interested thus to become acquainted with so gifted a writer, so noble a woman. My thanks are due to Sir Edwin Arnold for kindly translating some of the poems, as well as to Professor Max Muller for his advice regarding the translation of the philosophical pages.
