Princesses Behaving Badly
Author: Linda Rodriguez McRobbie
Publisher: Quirk Books
ISBN: 1594746656
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
These 30 true stories of take-charge princesses from around the world and throughout history offer a different kind of bedtime story . . . Pop history meets a funny, feminist point-of-view in these illustrated tales of “royal terrors who make modern gossip queens seem as demure as Snow White” (New York Post). You think you know her story. You’ve read the Brothers Grimm, you’ve watched the Disney cartoons, and you cheered as these virtuous women lived happily ever after. But real princesses didn’t always get happy endings—and had very little in common with Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Belle, or Ariel. Featuring illustrations by Wicked cover artist, Douglas Smith, Princesses Behaving Badly tells the true stories of famous (Marie Antoinette; Lucrezia Borgia)—and some not-so-famous—princesses throughout history and around the world, including: • Princess Stephanie von Hohenlohe, a Nazi spy. • Empress Elisabeth of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, who slept wearing a mask of raw veal. • Princess Olga of Kiev, who slaughtered her way to sainthood. • Princess Lakshmibai, who waged war on the battlefield with her toddler strapped to her back. Some were villains, some were heroes, some were just plain crazy. But none of these princesses felt constrained to our notions of “lady-like” behavior.

Mad Princes of Renaissance Germany
Author: H. C. Erik Midelfort
Publisher: Rutgers University Press
ISBN: 9780813915012
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
With an acute ear for the nuances of sixteenth-century diagnosis, H.C. Erik Midelfort details the expansion of a learned medical vocabulary with which contemporaries could describe these demented monarchs, as we watch the rise to prominence of the "melancholy prince." He also documents the transition from the brutal deposition of mad princes during the late Middle Ages to the imposition of medical therapy by the middle of the sixteenth century, taking note of the competing claims of medicine and theology. Mad Princes of Renaissance Germany takes a new look at the issues raised in Michel Foucault's Madness and Civilization and provides an alternative framework of interpretation.
