Summary "L'Assassinat de la Duchesse de Praslin" by Albert Savine is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the notorious assassination of the Duchess de Praslin, focusing on the scandal that shook the July Monarchy in 1847. It examines the events surrounding this tragic family drama, including the central figures Théobald de Praslin and Fanny Sébastiani, and seeks to uncover the hidden truths obscured by public imagination and legend. The opening of the work establishes the context and gravity of the Duchess de Praslin's assassination, framing it as one of the most shocking scandals of its time. Savine expresses his engagement with archival documents and previously neglected pieces of evidence that reveal a complex web of relationships and emotions leading up to the tragic event. In this initial section, the author outlines the historical background, family dynamics, and evolving societal perceptions surrounding the figures involved, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of the consequences of their tumultuous lives and the inherent tragedy that befalls them.
