Drottning Moi-Même: Historisk silhuett by Elisabeth Kuylenstierna-Wenster
"Drottning Moi-Même: Historisk silhuett" by Elisabeth Kuylenstierna-Wenster is a historical narrative written in the early 20th century. The story likely revolves around the life and challenges of Queen Christina of Sweden, with a focus on significant historical events, societal norms, and personal struggles within the royal court, particularly relating to motherhood and expectations of a queen. At the start of the narrative, the reader is introduced to a cold December evening in
1626, as various noblewomen, including the strong-willed Countess Ebba and the timid Anna Bååt, attend the birth of a royal child in Stockholm. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation as they discuss the implications of the birth, mentioning the queen’s health and the potential for the newborn to be a son. Tensions arise as they address the joy and concerns surrounding the royal family, particularly with regard to the newborn's future in a kingdom rife with political complexities and social expectations. The dialogue reveals the personalities and motives of the characters engaged in a world where power dynamics and personal feelings intertwine, setting the stage for the unfolding historical drama.
