Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Formidablement rudit et aussi captivant qu'un roman, l'ouvrage de Stella Tillyard est un brillant tour de force. S'appuyant sur des milliers de lettres, il nous relate l'histoire des quatre surs Lennox Caroline, Emily, Louisa et Sarah , histoire alliant les sommets de la politique, les tendres sentiments, la vie familiale et la tragdie, qui dbute en 1740 sous le rgne de George II et s'achve en 1832, cinq ans avant l'avnement de Victoria. A premire vue, tout les spare de nous. Arrirepetitesfilles de Charles II et de Louise de Kroualle, fille du duc de Richmond, elles taient riches, bien duques et francophiles. Leurs reloations sociales leur donnrent l'accs aux ides les plus neuves, aux penseurs, artistes, mdecins les plus en vue. Caroline s'enfuit avec le politicien Henry Fox, et fut la mre de Charles James Fox, grande figure de l'opposition librale. Emily convola avec un duc et pair d'Irlande, et l'un de ses nombreux enfants fut un martyr de la cause rpublicaine. Louisa pousa l'homme le plus riche d'Irlande. Sarah, courtise par le jeune George III, faillit devenir reine. Pourtant, leur faon d'crire nous les rend trs proches, si exquises dans leur intimit, si solidaires dans leurs attachements d'pouses, de mres et de surs. Elles abordent avec fracheur et spontanit des sujets qui nous tiennent cur autant qu' elles : amour et mariage, allaitement et rgles douloureuses, nourriture et toilettes, livres et spectacles, demeures et jardins, guerres et politique. Tout est l, de la conception la mort, crit avec des voix rarement entendues de femmes du XVIIIe sicle, filles des Lumires assez rceptives pour accueillir la leon libratoire de rousseau et le culte de la sensibilit, assez tolrantes pour entendre le message de Thomas Paine, l'appel des colons d'Amrique et les idaux de la Rvolution franaise.
