Memoirs of the Court of Marie Antoinette by Henriette Campan audiobook. Genre: biography Introduced into the royal household as court reader at the age of 15 and later rising to the office of first lady-in-waiting to Marie Antoinette, Mme Campan was privy to the many trials and tribulations of this unfortunate queen. Her memoirs offer a fascinating insight into the intrigues, the complexities of court life, the characters and behaviors of its occupants and guests rather than on the tumultuous historical events of the period. QUOTE: 'I shall relate what I have seen. I shall make known the character of Marie Antoinette, her domestic habits, the way in which she spent her time, her maternal affection, her constancy in friendship, her dignity in misfortune. I shall, in some degree, throw open her private apartments, where I have passed so many hours with her, both in the happiest and the most sorrowful years of her life.'(Mme Campan) For ad-free listening try our premium subscription Chapters (Approximate) (00:00:00) Chapter 01 (00:05:05) Chapter 02 (00:45:49) Chapter 03 (01:27:54) Chapter 04 (02:07:14) Chapter 05 (02:25:52) Chapter 06 (03:00:40) Chapter 07 (03:43:52) Chapter 08 (04:13:49) Chapter 09 (04:38:44) Chapter 10 (05:09:33) Chapter 11 (05:50:30) Chapter 12 (06:32:31) Chapter 13 (07:07:14) Chapter 14 (07:31:39) Chapter 15 (08:04:47) Chapter 16 (08:27:55) Chapter 17 (08:55:02) Chapter 18 (09:17:31) Chapter 19 (09:41:03) Chapter 20 (10:08:54) Chapter 21 (10:34:57) Chapter 22 (11:04:37) Chapter 23 (11:31:26) Chapter 24 (11:55:07) Chapter 25 (12:31:47) Chapter 26 (12:57:24) Chapter 27 (13:21:10) Chapter 28 (13:38:37) Chapter 29 (14:02:13) Chapter 30 (14:27:27) Chapter 31 Learn more about your ad choices.
