Queen Victoria has attracted much more than her fair share of biographical talent.Of all royal subjects - if such an expression may be permitted - she is the most kaleidoscopic.Not witty like Charles II,not tragic like Charles I,not a brilliant political manager like Queen Elizabeth I,not an ogre like Henry VIII,not a gossip writer's dream like George IV, she fascinates by her extreme,her palpable, ordinariness.And yet the minute one has said that one sees that its opposite is equally true.She was extraordinary.'The mind of Queen Victoria',wrote Kenneth Rose in our time,'never ceases to astonish'.The same judgement was expressed at first-hand a century earlier by Charles Greville,who described the Queen as 'the most interesting mind and character in the world'.It is in the paradoxes and contradictions of this at first sight obvious and straightforward figure that Giles St Aubyn finds the key to understanding her.This brilliant and stylish portrait of the Queen is first and last and all the time a study of her personality,not an account of the longest and most eventful reign of British history (to date - 1991),deeply aware as the author shows himself of the social and political background.He directs his spotlight on her family life,her relations with her Ministers and servants, her impact on them and on her subjects,her traits of character,her taste and her beliefs.In tracing the development of the Queen's personality between 1819 and 1901 he distinguishes six Victorias. First the frustrated prisoner of Kensington Palace,forced to lead a solitary existence in a world of intrigue and hostility.Second,the young Queen rejoicing in her freedom and enchanted by Lord Melbourne.Third,the young bride, devoted to Prince Albert but not prepared to share her royal duties.Fourth,the submissive wife,who made her Consort all but King in name.Next,after the death of the Prince in 1861,the shattered,helpless widow,hiding herself away at Balmoral,Windsor and Osborne.The decade following Albert's death threatened not only her sanity but the monarchy itself. Finally,stimulated by Disraeli,she abandoned her seclusion,her confidence restored in her role as Queen Empress and doyenne of Europe's Sovereigns.She was no longer Albert's protege,but her own old self 'writ large'. By the end of her reign Queen Victoria's family connections extended to almost every great and most minor powers in Europe.The Kaiser was her grandson,the Tsar of Russia married a granddaughter as did the King of Spain.The warmth of her personality made these relationships,unlike the dynastic marriages of earlier centuries,intimate and affectionate.Giles St Aubyn as the biographer of the Queen's eldest son Edward VII,and her cousin the Duke of Cambridge sees her perhaps more than any other writer as she saw herself.Certainly no reader will put this book down with the remark so often attributed to the Queen, though misunderstood: 'We are not amused.'

Price: USD 19.29
Dealer: AbebooksUK, Amazing Book Company
Description: ISBN10: 1856190862, ISBN13: 9781856190862, [publisher: Sinclair-Stevenson Ltd, London] Hardcover First Edition This copy is in fine unmarked condition bound in blue cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling to the spine. Bright, tight, white and square. The unclipped dust wrapper is lightly sunned so best described as very good condition. International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. Where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased charges will be quoted. This book attempts to portray Queen Victoria as she was, not as icons and caricatures have depicted her. The copy-book sovereign of pious propaganda bears little resemblance to the flawed but endearing mortal who governed half the world. "If they only knew what I am really like", she remarked ruefully on being shown an absurdly extravagant tribute. Many of her contemporaries carried idolatry too far, and after the First World War a reaction set in. Her detractors, however, got little nearer the truth in their anxiety to disparage her. To maintain that she was an hypocritical kill-joy demanded a perversity bordering on total ignorance. The Queen was born in the last year of George III's reign, and died a couple of months before Hitler's 12th birthday. She corresponded with Tennyson, was taught drawing by Edward Lear, and had singing lessons from Mendelssohn. Not only was she a dominant force in British politics for most of the 19th century, but wielded an influence over the rulers of Europe unprecedented in history. It has often been argued that Queen Victoria was a "representative" figure, but in many respects she was also a nonconformist. Her views on class and race were far in advance of her time, and her churchmanship was positively heretical. Greville described her as possessing "the most interesting mind and character in the world", and the more one learns of her richly ambivalent nature, the more one falls under her spell.

37. Queen Victoria: A Portrait

Dealer: ZVAB, WorldofBooks
Description: ISBN10: 1856190862, ISBN13: 9781856190862, [publisher: Vintage Publishing, United Kingdom, London] Softcover This book attempts to portray Queen Victoria as she was, not as icons and caricatures have depicted her. The copy-book sovereign of pious propaganda bears little resemblance to the flawed but endearing mortal who governed half the world. If they only knew what I am really like, she remarked ruefully on being shown an absurdly extravagant tribute. Many of her contemporaries carried idolatry too far, and after the First World War a reaction set in. Her detractors, however, got little nearer the truth in their anxiety to disparage her. To maintain that she was an hypocritical kill-joy demanded a perversity bordering on total ignorance. The Queen was born in the last year of George III's reign, and died a couple of months before Hitler's 12th birthday. She corresponded with Tennyson, was taught drawing by Edward Lear, and had singing lessons from Mendelssohn. Not only was she a dominant force in British politics for most of the 19th century, but wielded an influence over the rulers of Europe unprecedented in history. It has often been argued that Queen Victoria was a representative figure, but in many respects she was also a nonconformist. Her views on class and race were far in advance of her time, and her churchmanship was positively heretical. Greville described her as possessing the most interesting mind and character in the world, and the more one learns of her richly ambivalent nature, the more one falls under her spell. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
