| Summary | "Marie-Louise et la cour d'Autriche entre les deux abdications (1814-1815)" by Baron de Méneval is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the life and experiences of Empress Marie-Louise after her marriage to Napoleon and her subsequent return to Austria following his first abdication. The author draws on personal documents and contemporary accounts to provide insights into Marie-Louise’s character, her emotional struggles, and the political intrigues surrounding her during this tumultuous period. At the start of the book, the author sets up the context of Marie-Louise’s life as she grapples with her separation from Napoleon in 1814 and the ensuing challenges of being a dethroned empress. The opening chapters delve into her initial reactions to the political changes, her correspondence with family and friends, and reflections on her loyalty to Napoleon. Baron de Méneval, whose grandfather closely served Marie-Louise, offers a nuanced portrayal of her sentiments and the conflicting advice she received, illustrating her vulnerability and indecision as she navigated her new reality in Austria.
