| Summary | "Mémoires du prince de Talleyrand, Volume 3" by Talleyrand-Périgord is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume continues the reflections and observations of Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand, a key French diplomat, during the Congress of Vienna (1814-1815) as the European powers navigated the post-Napoleonic political landscape. The text primarily addresses diplomatic discussions, the nuances of power dynamics, and the principles of legitimacy and balance of power in Europe. The opening of the memoirs presents Talleyrand's correspondence with King Louis XVIII, emphasizing his role as a mediator and influencer in high-stakes political negotiations. Significant issues include the delicate handling of Saxon territorial claims and the strategic alliances formed among European powers. Talleyrand conveys the complexities of maintaining stability while balancing the interests of France, Austria, Prussia, and Russia, showcasing his diplomatic acumen.
