Zone Books (NY) 1999 Hardcover Used-Like New In The Wicked Queen, Chantal Thomas presents the history of themythification of one of the most infamous queens in all history, whose executionstill fascinates us today. Almost as soon as Marie-Antoinette, archduchess ofAustria, was brought to France as the bride of Louis XVI in 1771, she was smotheredin images. In a monarchy increasingly under assault, the charm and horror of herfeminine body and her political power as a foreign intruder turned Marie-Antoinetteinto an alien other. Marie-Antoinette's mythification, argues Thomas, must beinterpreted as the misogynist demonization of women's power and authority inrevolutionary France. In a series of pamphlets written from the 1770s until her deathin 1793, Marie-Antoinette is portrayed as a spendthrift, a libertine, an orgiasticlesbian, and a poisoner and infant murderess. In her analyses of these pamphlets, seven of which appear here in translation for the first time, Thomas reconstructshow the mounting hallucinatory and libelous discourse culminated in the inevitabledestruction of what had become the counterrevolutionary symbol par excellence. TheWicked Queen exposes the elaborate process by which the myth of Marie-Antoinetteemerged as a crucial element in the successful staging of the FrenchRevolution. Thomas exposes the elaborate process by which the myth of Marie-Antoinette emerged as a crucial element in the successful staging of the French Revolution. 15 illustrations.
