A historian who is convinced she should be living in the past, not studying it. Most of the time she is mentally lost in the halls of Versailles. The modern world is not to her liking. She becomes depressed whenever she realizes she'll never really be French, but she continues to pretend. She is constantly counting the days until she can return to the most magnificent city on earth, known by some as a movable feast, others as the city of lights.

L'éloge de Louis XVI par Fouquier-Tinville avant la Révolution. Brèves d'Histoire de France. Une pièce de vers très curieuse, écrite en 1783 de la main du plus tard tristement célèbre Fouquier-Tinville, montre que tous les jacobins n'eurent pas toujours le même esprit et la même opinion. Bribes d'Histoire de France. Miettes historiques. Le saviez-vous ? Origines, connaissances usuelles. Anecdotes utiles à la conversation. Savoir indispensable, leçon de choses.

D’une profonde paix nous goûtions les douceurs, Même au milieu des fureurs de la guerre ; Louis sut en tout temps la donner à nos cœurs. En l’accordant à la fière Angleterre, Louis admet ses ennemis Au rang de ses enfants chéris. Sous l’autorité paternelle De ce prince, ami de la paix, La France a pris une splendeur nouvelle, Et notre amour égale ses bienfaits.

The Dauphine is winning her way to the Dauphin, and is so gay and so graceful that the sombre, reserved, young Prince, impenetrable to all, has yielded to her charm.

[Louis XVI] seems charmed with the Dauphine, and shows a sweetness and complaisance towards her that he was not believed to possess.

Just finished my last final at Sweet Briar. Thank you to the professors who made classes worth the time, effort, and sleep deprivation that went into this year. I will always remember what you have given me.
