Count Cavour and Madame De Circourt (Classic Reprint): Some Unpublished Correspondence: Some Unpublished Correspondence (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Inhaltsangabe
This fascinating collection consists of 37 letters and notes written by the celebrated Italian statesman, Camillo Cavour, to his close friend Anastasie Klustine, the Countess de Circourt, between 1835 and 1860. A remarkable figure in her own right, the Russian-born Countess played a prominent role in the literary and intellectual circles of Paris during the 19th century. The letters, many of them affectionate, witty, and insightful, offer a remarkable glimpse into Cavour's personality, political views, and private life. They cover various topics, from diplomatic affairs and philosophical discussions to personal anecdotes and reflections on contemporary events. As a historical document, this book provides valuable insights into the political landscape of Europe during a period of significant change and turmoil.

Excerpt from Count Cavour and Madame De Circourt: Some Unpublished Correspondence
At her death she bequeathed to me the letters which Count Cavour had written to her during a period of twenty-five years. Unfortunately, they are not many. Reckoning the six addressed to Count Adolphe de Circourt, which formed part of the legacy, and in cluding a note two lines long, the little collection contains only thirty-seven items. They are all auto graph, written in Cavour's delicate little round char acters - extremely neat and free from erasures; but curiously enough only six have a complete date, while seventeen are undated.1 They are written in French, for though Mme de Circourt knew something of Italian, she was not accustomed to read or write it. Such are the letters which I now publish, thirty years after the death of her to whom they were addressed. Mme de Circourt was wont to call this little collection her treasure; and indeed its publication will add fresh wealth to that unequalled treasury formed by the works of the greatest statesmen of modern Italy.
