Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hugo Paul Thieme (1870-1940) was an author and professor at the University of Michigan. His works include Woman in All Ages and in All Countries: Women of Modern France (1907). Among the Latin races, the French race differs essentially in one characteristic which has been the key to the success of French women-namely, the social instinct. The whole French nation has always lived for the present time, in actuality, deriving from life more of what may be called social pleasure than any other nation. It has been a universal characteristic among French people since the sixteenth century to love to please, to make themselves agreeable, to bring joy and happiness to others, and to be loved and admired as well. With this instinctive trait French women have always been bountifully endowed. Highly emotional, they love to charm, and this has become an art with them; balancing this emotional nature is the mathematical quality. These two combined have made French women the great leaders in their own country and among women of all races.

This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women of Modern France By Hugo P. (Hugo Paul) Thieme French women of the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries, when studied according to the distinctive phases of their influence, are best divided into three classes: those queens who, as wives, represented virtue, education, and family life; the mistresses, who were instigators of political intrigue, immorality, and vice; and the authoresses and other educated women, who constituted themselves the patronesses of art and literature. This division is not absolute by any means; for we see that in the sixteenth century the regent-mother (for example, Louise of Savoy and Catherine de' Medici), in extent of influence, fills the same position as does the mistress in the eighteenth century; though in the former period appears, in Diana of Poitiers, the first of a long line of ruling mistresses. Queen-consorts, in the sixteenth as in the following centuries, exercised but little influence; they were, as a rule, gentle and obedient wives-even Catherine, domineering as she afterward showed herself to be, betraying no signs of that trait until she became regent. The literary women and women of spirit and wit furthered all intellectual and social development; but it was the mistresses-those great women of political schemes and moral degeneracy-who were vested with the actual importance, and it must in justice to them be said that they not infrequently encouraged art, letters, and mental expansion. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chapter I Woman in politics French women of the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries, when studied according to the distinctive phases of their influence, are best divided into three classes: those queens who, as wives, represented virtue, education, and family life; the mistresses, who were instigators of political intrigue, immorality, and vice; and the authoresses and other educated women, who constituted themselves the patronesses of art and literature. This division is not absolute by any means; for we see that in the sixteenth century the regent-mother (for example, Louise of Savoy and Catherine de' Medici), in extent of influence, fills the same position as does the mistress in the eighteenth century; though in the former period appears, in Diana of Poitiers, the first of a long line of ruling mistresses. Queen-consorts, in the sixteenth as in the following centuries, exercised but little influence; they were, as a rule, gentle and obedient wives-even Catherine, domineering as she afterward showed herself to be, betraying no signs of that trait until she became regent. The literary women and women of spirit and wit furthered all intellectual and social development; but it was the mistresses-those great women of political schemes and moral degeneracy-who were vested with the actual importance, and it must in justice to them be said that they not infrequently encouraged art, letters, and mental expansion. Eight queens of France there were during the sixteenth century, and three of these may be accepted as types of purity, piety, and goodness: Claude, first wife of Francis I.; Elizabeth of France, wife of Charles IX.; and Louise de Vaudemont, wife of Henry III. These queens, held up to ridicule and scorn by the depraved followers of their husbands' mistresses, were reverenced by the people; we find striking contrasts to them in the two queens-regent, Louise of Savoy and Catherine de' Medici, who, in the period of their power, were as unscrupulous and brutal, intriguing and licentious, jealous and revengeful, as the most wanton mistresses who ever controlled a king. In this century, we find two other remarkable types: Marguerite d'Angouleme, the bright star of her time; and her whose name comes instantly to mind when we speak of the Lady of Angouleme-Marguerite de Navarre, representing both the good and the doubtful, the broadest sense of that untranslatable term femme d'esprit. The first of the royal French women to whom modern woman owes a great and clearly defined debt was Anne of Brittany, wife of Louis XII. and the personification of all that is good and virtuous. To her belongs the honor of having taken the first step toward the social emancipation of French women; she was the first to give to woman an important place at court. This precedent she established by requesting her state officials and the foreign ambassadors to bring their wives and daughters when they paid their respects to her. To the ladies themselves, she sent a "royal command," bidding them leave their gloomy feudal abodes and repair to the court of their sovereign....
