Nous sommes le 30 juillet 1712. Antoine Watteau se présente à l'Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture, à Paris. Il y montre plusieurs de ses œuvres en espérant être agréé. La Compagnie vote et estime que l'artiste a fait ses preuves et lui laisse le choix du thème à traiter. Cinq ans plus tard, le 28 août 1717, Watteau apporte, enfin , le tableau lui permettant d'être reçu au sein de la prestigieuse institution. Ce jour-là, sur le registre de l'Académie, l'œuvre était désignée comme « Le pèlerinage à l'isle de Cithère ». Peu de temps après, ce titre est biffé au profit de celui de « Feste galante ». Fêtes et plaisirs d'amour au temps de Madame de Pompadour c'est le menu du jour. Xavier Salmon, conservateur général du patrimoine au Louvre-Lens.

Les deux vieilles amatrices d'enquêtes, Blanche et Berthe Bodin, s'ennuient terriblement : plus aucun crime ne vient troubler le calme d'Orléans. La seule distraction qu'elles trouvent est un concours d'anomalies organisé dans les vitrines des commerçants.

Cette demoiselle de compagnie était entrée, depuis peu, au service de la colonelle Piqué, après avoir été à celui de la jeune veuve Madame de Charson. Les sœurs Bodin ont enfin un énigme à résoudre !*** Fiction radiophonique diffusée dans l'émission « L'Heure du mystère » de Germaine Beaumont – « La Demoiselle de compagnie » d'après l'oeuvre de Jean-Pierre Ferrière – Réalisation Evelyne Frémy – Première diffusion le 25/01/1972 sur France Inter – Avec : Gabrielle Doulcet, Madeleine Barbulée, Viviane Gosset, Laurence Mercier, Micheline Bona, Jean Leuvrais, Michel Creton et Jean Péméja - Un podcast INA.

Les épouses de grands hommes sont souvent effacées, toujours négligées. Madame de Talleyrand ne fit pas exception à la règle – ce qui n'empêche pas de nuancer le portrait peu flatteur qu'on a brossé d'elle.Nous voici plongés dans les fascinantes aventures de Catherine Grand, cette belle et mystérieuse jeune femme qui a réussi à captiver le cœur de l'influent ministre Talleyrand.
Natascia Chiarlo"Anima Festival 2026"www.animafestival.netL'Anima Festival, giunta alla sua undicesima edizione, si sta rivelando ancora una volta come una delle rassegne estive più amate del Piemonte, per la sua proposta artistica e per la cornice meravigliosa dell'Anfiteatro dell'Anima, un palcoscenico naturale visivamente abbracciato dalla cerchia delle Alpi, col Monviso da un lato e i dolci declivi delle colline langarole dall'altro. Dopo aver annunciato per l'estate del 2026 i concerti di Emma, Madame, Serena Brancale, Luca Carboni, Sal da Vinci e Riccardo Cocciante, oltre la serata comica con Max Angioni, la direzione artistica del Festival ha annunciato a sorpresa una grande novità. Sabato 5 settembre il palcoscenico piemontese ospiterà Alberto Angela, con la presentazione del suo nuovo libro, edito Mondadori, “CESARE. La conquista dell'eternità”. La serata doveva essere quella del concerto di Claudio Baglioni, che ha rimandato il tour al 2027 per problemi di salute. Ma la data non resterà vuota. Anzi. Ci sarà l'amatissimo e stimatissimo Angela. Paleontologo, naturalista, giornalista, divulgatore scientifico, scrittore e conduttore di numerosi programmi di successo trasmessi dalla RAI, racconta: “Immaginate di partire assieme a Giulio Cesare e alle sue legioni. È il 58 a.C., la Gallia è una terra lontana, abitata da popolazioni bellicose, mai dome, che hanno già inflitto dolorose sconfitte ai Romani. Ma è anche una terra ricca e prospera. Giulio Cesare vuole conquistarla, per sé e per Roma, e per farlo è disposto ad affrontare ogni avversità: estenuanti marce nella neve e battaglie sanguinose, intrighi di palazzo e tradimenti, ponti da costruire e flotte da creare da zero, foreste che si dicono stregate e santuari con scheletri decapitati. Sarà un viaggio avventuroso e pieno di scoperte, che Cesare guiderà con il coraggio e la curiosità di Ulisse. Ma sarà anche un viaggio interiore, a fianco di un uomo implacabile e geniale, carismatico e instancabile, eppure non privo di dubbi e paure recondite. Un condottiero con i suoi lati oscuri e violenti, ma anche un fine pensatore e un grande scrittore, che ama con passione, tradisce ed è tradito, che è fidanzato, marito, padre, amante, vedovo, eterosessuale, bisessuale… E sullo sfondo del racconto, a completare il vasto affresco di quell'epoca cruciale per il destino di Roma e dell'Europa, ecco comparire Cicerone e Catullo, Cleopatra e Marco Antonio, Crasso e Pompeo, Calpurnia, la dolce moglie di Cesare, e Giulia, la sua amata figlia. Alberto Angela torna in libreria con un'opera unica e grandiosa, che prende spunto dal De bello Gallico per trascinarci in un'avventura senza pari. Le pagine si susseguono con il ritmo e le atmosfere dei film e delle serie tv più avvincenti, e al tempo stesso arricchiscono il lettore di scoperte, curiosità e riflessioni sul mondo romano. Le ricostruzioni dei volti, delle scene di battaglia e di vita quotidiana, realizzate grazie al supporto dell'intelligenza artificiale, consentono inoltre di rivedere, come fossero attuali, fotogrammi di vita andati perduti. Tutto concorre a farci immergere nella Storia come raramente un libro era riuscito prima, permettendoci di sentirla così vicina e così viva.” Sabato 5 settembre l'Anfiteatro dell'Anima aprirà già alle ore 19, per consentire al pubblico di arrivare con tutta calma, usufruendo dell'ampio parcheggio e dell'attrezzata zona ristoro. La presentazione del libro avrà inizio alle ore 21 e avrà durata di circa un'ora. Angela dialogherà con Alberto Infelise, giornalista de La Stampa. I posti saranno numerati e disponibili sul sito www.ticketone.it da lunedì 13 luglio 2026 alla cifra simbolica di sei euro (più diritti di prevendita) o direttamente al botteghino della location la sera stessa. Al termine della presentazione Angela sarà disponibile per un firmacopie per le prime trecento persone che si iscriveranno a un link presto disponibile sul sito ufficiale www.animafestival.net Natascia e Ivan Chiarlo dichiarano sull'evento: “Inseguivamo da anni il sogno di poter ospitare nel nostro anfiteatro un luminare della cultura come Alberto Angela. Siamo molto felici di essere riusciti nel nostro intento, che è un primo assaggio dell'ampliamento dell'offerta dell'Anima Festival. La direzione che vogliamo dare è infatti quella di costruire, anno dopo anno, un luogo di cultura a trecentosessanta gradi. I nomi e i cartelloni cambiano, le stagioni passano, il pubblico si rinnova e si amplia, ma il focus rimane quello di fare vivere al pubblico un'esperienza, facendo portare a casa un ricordo speciale che rimane nel tempo. È un luogo che continua a crescere, senza smarrire – ça va sans dire – la sua anima.”Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/
Pendant la semaine très chaude à Paris, pendant la canicule, un des moyens parisiens pour avoir un peu de fraîcheur a été d'assister à une conférence sur la galanterie au musée Carnavalet. Bienvenue sur Cultivate Your French, le podcast Slow French qui vous permet de cultiver votre compréhension et votre intérêt pour le français. Vous pourrez écouter cet épisode à deux rythmes différents. Je vous lis une première fois le texte lentement et ensuite vous l'entendrez à vitesse normale. C'est le principe très efficace et très satisfaisant de la double écoute. J'étais au musée Carnavalet à l'occasion de l'exposition consacrée à Madame de Sévigné. En 2026, c'est le quatrecentième anniversaire de sa naissance. C'est ce que je vous raconte dans l'épisode d'aujourd'hui, car cette conférence m'a vraiment beaucoup plu. Dans la lettre qui accompagne cet épisode, il y aura des notes culturelles pour se cultiver et une phrase à répéter pour s'entraîner. Cette phrase, je ne l'ai pas choisie au hasard, mais pour des raisons de grammaire et de syntaxe très précises. La phrase à répéter est un exercice simple, très efficace et facile à appliquer à l'oral. Vous pouvez vous abonner aux lettres du podcast sur www.cultivateyourfrench.com
"Diary and Letters of Madame D'Arblay" offers a captivating review essay by Thomas Babington Macaulay, originally published in The Edinburgh Review in January 1843. Macaulay highlights the remarkable insights of Madame D'Arblay, who chronicled her experiences with many notable figures of her time, including a vivid account of King George III's illness. He praises her narrative skills, suggesting that her work will hold enduring value for future historians, much like the diaries of Pepys and Evelyn. This exploration of her life and writings not only illuminates the literary landscape that paved the way for Jane Austen but also invites listeners to appreciate the art of personal storytelling that resonates through the ages.
Aujourd'hui, Antoine Diers, consultant auprès des entreprises, Didier Giraud, éleveur de bovins, et Sandrine Pégand, avocate, débattent de l'actualité autour d'Alain Marschall et Olivier Truchot.
Avec cette chaleur, une seule question se posait cette semaine : comment trouver un peu de fraîcheur à Paris ? Nous avons testé des choses « classiques » : piscine, magasins climatisés, etc. Et d'autres typiquement parisiennes et plus originales. What does a Parisian do when the heat hits 33°C indoors? In this episode, I share my week's search for cool air — in French, naturally. This podcast is made for French learners who want to confront themselves with real, non-textbook French. Use your ear to understand spoken French as it's actually spoken, and improve your comprehension while discovering French culture along the way. The level of this episode is B1-B2, as it mixes everyday, accessible vocabulary (heatwave, temperatures, cooling down) with more formal, historical vocabulary tied to 17th-century letters and "gallantry" — a contrast you'll rarely find in a traditional French course, where these two registers are usually kept apart. This episode also answers the following questions: How do you get to Marly-le-Roi and the forêt domaniale de Marly? Are French trains air-conditioned? Who was Madame de Sévigné? What is the Carnavalet museum, and what is it about? What did French 17th-century "gallantry" actually mean? Who are Jennifer Tamas and Mélanie Traversier, and what do they study? What can 17th-century French "gallantry" teach us about how men and women relate today? Do French people really talk for hours at a café? Is it possible to attend a French Opera ballet class session? Is there a Bollywood dance school in Paris?

In this latest episode of Biographers in Conversation, Sheryle Bagwell chats with Dr Gabriella Kelly-Davies about Letter from Provence: Two Women, Two Centuries and a Village House in France. Here's what you'll discover in this episode: Sheryle Bagwell explains how the chance discovery of a dust-covered volume of Madame de Sévigné's letters in her Provençal attic became the catalyst for a story she had been unconsciously preparing to write for several decades. Sheryle reveals that the ‘two women' of the subtitle are her mother Judith and Madame de Sévigné, a distinction that reframes the emotional architecture of the story. Sheryle describes how Madame de Sévigné, writing before the age of newspapers, effectively functioned as the world's first blogger, giving her intimate circle and ultimately history, eyewitness accounts of Louis XIV's court through letters she knew were being read aloud and passed around. Sheryle describes the discovery that her mother Judith and Madame de Sévigné had striking parallels. Both were feisty and both died without their daughters present, which became the emotional spine of the story. Sheryle reflects on writing the book later in life as an intentional choice: ‘I don't think I could have written this book in mid-career', she said. ‘I needed the wisdom that comes later in life to honestly reckon with a childhood shaped by domestic violence and a mother who never got to escape it.' Sheryle closes the story with a letter to her mother written from Provence, which she describes as the first letter she ever wrote to her mother, and the one the entire story was always travelling towards.

Pull up a chair. It's 1951. The linen is crisp, the coffee is strong, and you and I have nowhere to be for at least an hour. This episode is inspired by Part 3 of The Misadventures of Madame J: Chortler on a Train, and three things it made me think about for all of us. Three stylish missions this week: Eat one meal alone. Unhurried. No phone. Order exactly what you want. Slow down for five minutes and pay attention to your surroundings. Notice the stylish clues hiding in plain sight. Write down the rules you've been living by and ask yourself. Which ones are actually serving you? There's also a stylish clue hidden in Part 3. Did you catch it?

Today's Lang Fairy Tale is another Madame d'Aulnoy spectacular, The Golden Branch!So spectacular is this tale, in fact, that it was adapted for the stage as part of James Robinson Planche's 19th century 'fairy extravaganzas', lavishly costumed musical displays of whimsy which must truly have been a joy to behold. But will this be the decider for Martin for or against Madame d'Aulnoy? We discuss the tale, compare it to the other French literary fairy tales we've encountered as part of this project, and explore its subtext.We hope you enjoy the story and the episode, and we will be back on Saturday with another double bill of tales: Dapplegrim, and The Twelve Brothers!If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over £4,000 ($5,000+).Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?REGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURVisit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

Franck Ferrand vous emmène au cœur d'un drame familial qui a secoué la cour du Roi-Soleil en 1712. Alors que le vieux roi Louis XIV vit ses dernières années, une série de décès frappe sa descendance directe, laissant planer le doute sur les véritables causes de ces disparitions. Le duc et la duchesse de Bourgogne, ainsi que leur fils aîné, le nouveau dauphin, s'éteignent dans des circonstances mystérieuses, alimentant les rumeurs de complot et d'empoisonnement. Le récit passionnant de Franck Ferrand nous plonge dans les intrigues de la cour, où le duc d'Orléans, neveu du roi, est soupçonné d'être l'instigateur de ces tragédies. Les témoignages du duc de Saint-Simon et de Madame Palatine, proches du prince, alimentent ces soupçons, tandis que Madame de Maintenon, épouse secrète de Louis XIV, semble jouer un rôle trouble dans la diffusion de ces rumeurs malveillantes. Mais au-delà des bruits de couloir, qu'en est-il réellement ? Les médecins restent divisés sur les causes des décès, entre rougeole, septicémie et possibles empoisonnements. Et que cachaient les documents compromettants retrouvés dans les affaires du duc et de la duchesse de Bourgogne ? Franck Ferrand décortique avec passion cette période trouble, où la mort d'une partie de la famille royale a jeté le trouble jusque dans l'entourage du Roi-Soleil.

Well guess what, it's a sweet reunion - but instead of Jamaica and Spain - we're headed back to Brooklyn to meet the person who first inrotuduced the Linda Napolitano story to Nikki when she was on honeymoon in New York - it's Tyler the tour guide from Madame Morbids Trolley tours, the numer one rated ghost tour in the whole of NYC and if that ain't saying something then you obviously don't know your cannolis! Join us for a deep dive into Linda's story from someone who knows it back to front and has often floated past the Brooklyn Bridge ( well, with slightly more bumps on those cobble stones) inside a victorian style trolley ( a mini bus to us Brits but far more vintage and cool).

In this episode, Kemi sits down with Magogodi oaMphela Makhene of Madame Speaker Says for a conversation that will reframe everything you thought you knew about excellence, authority, and who gets to tell your story. They get into why working hard and letting your work "speak for itself" is quietly costing you, and why brilliant women who stay silent about their intentions get written out of their own story. Kemi shares what she finally stopped doing that unlocked her authority, what it actually cost her to build in public, and why fearlessness is a scam and what to do instead. She also takes us inside the journey behind her book, A Terrible Strength: The Hidden Crisis of the Black Womb and Your Survival Guide to Healing, a science-backed, deeply personal framework to help all women, especially Black women, recognize their body's signals, unlearn the normalization of pain, and demand the equitable, life-saving care they deserve. If you've ever made yourself smaller so someone else could be more comfortable, this one is for you. Share it with a womb sister you love.

Joanna Stalnaker is a professor of French at Columbia University and also the author of the books The Rest Is Silence: Enlightenment Philosophers Facing Death and The Unfinished Enlightenment: Description in the Age of the Encyclopedia. Greg and Joanna discuss how Enlightenment figures faced death amid disbelief or tempered religious belief. Joanna says scholars have emphasized 18th-century death rituals more than philosophers' personal end-of-life writings, and she links her interest to growing up with atheist philosopher parents to her earlier work on Enlightenment description, and Rousseau's late writings. Their conversation covers models like Socrates and Montaigne's, public scrutiny of deaths, last rites, and burial, and tensions between posterity and accepting oblivion. They discuss Hume's death and ambivalence about his reception, Diderot's Seneca-inspired reflections and critique of Rousseau's self-presentation, Voltaire's editing of Meslier and correspondence with Madame du Deffand, Buffon's gradual “ossification” view of dying, salons and letters' role in Enlightenment networks and women's participation, posthumous publication, and the value of literary form for understanding embodied philosophy and equanimity toward death. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: On publishing a book against transhumanism 07:19: I published the book [The Rest Is Silence] that, in a certain sense, it's kind of a book against transhumanism or all these attempts to sort of survive, whether it be through technology or whether it be through spreading one's genetic material by having as many babies as possible. There's this—I see, in our current moment, a kind of denial of death through those various phenomena. Sorates is a model of enlightened death 04:53: Socrates is a model in terms of how to die, what one might call an enlightened death; how to die a philosophical death; and how to face death in a courageous manner, in keeping with one's philosophy. And that was a preoccupation for both David Hume and Voltaire. They were very aware that the public was watching their deaths and that there was great interest in how they would die and whether they would recant their beliefs on their deathbeds. They were thinking back to this model of Socrates, I believe. Can you separate philosophy from the way it is written? 39:04: One of the things that I want to insist on in my work is the fact that we need to take literary form and genre and style into account because it's very difficult. The philosophical ideas cannot be extracted from their form, and I, in this particular book [The Rest Is Silence], was interested in the question of embodiment because my book is really about them attempting, acknowledging their coming deaths but acknowledging that they lived as bodies, as mortal bodies, and attempting to find a way to express that in writing.

When the Guardian drops a list of the 100 Greatest Novels in English it's time to drop everything to talk about it. Luckily pod-regular guest, journalist Phil Chaffee and Joseph Dance, host of the Curious Readers podcast, also had views, and were willing to get together on a Sunday evening to share them. You'll hear our hits, our misses, how many we've read, whether we should have read more and much musing on whether a list like this is the way to get people excited about reading. We explore the joys of the sub-lists – the contributor lists – all squirrelled away on a sub-section of the Guardian's website, that arguably provide more excitement and inspiration than the fairly canonical top 100. Which is the best Brontë? Which is the best Austen? Do we age into certain books? If you've read all seven volumes of Proust shouldn't that count for more than one entry? All this and much, much more. Enjoy – this was an absolute delight to make and I hope it makes you smile as much as it did me.Have your say: get in touch on Instagram @bookclubreviewpodcast or email thebookclubreview@gmail.com, or head to our website for full shownotes.

Two more tales from the Langs' Red Fairy Book in this episode: The Little Good Mouse and The Three Princesses of Whiteland.The Little Good Mouse is a Madame d'Aulnoy literary fairy tale with questionable morals, dreadful kings and...turkeys? The Three Princesses of Whiteland, on the other hand, is a Norwegian story collected by Asbjornsen and Moe. Its themes are quite familiar from previous tales like Soria Moria Castle and of course East of the Sun and West of the Moon, but it has some pretty original elements too.Afterwards, we discuss and rate the stories, question curious plot twists and inexplicable happenings, and generally appreciate two lesser known entries in the fairy tale canon. We really hope that you enjoy them, and we will speak to you again on Saturday for A Very British Chat with the wonderful David Crowther!If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over £4,000 ($5,000+).Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?REGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURVisit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

Au cœur du domaine de Château de Versailles, loin de l'agitation de la cour et des interminables cérémonies royales, se cache un palais plus discret, plus intime, mais tout aussi somptueux : le Grand Trianon. S'il fut construit à partir de 1687 pour Louis XIV, ce n'était pas simplement pour ajouter un nouveau bâtiment à Versailles. Le Grand Trianon répondait à un besoin très particulier du Roi-Soleil : fuir… son propre palais.Car Versailles était devenu une machine politique gigantesque. Louis XIV y avait rassemblé la noblesse afin de mieux la contrôler. Chaque journée du roi était réglée comme un cérémonial : lever, repas, promenades, coucher… tout était public. Être vu par le roi était un privilège convoité. Mais cette mise en scène permanente du pouvoir avait un prix : elle épuisait le souverain.Louis XIV rêvait donc d'un lieu plus calme, réservé à quelques proches seulement. Un endroit où il pourrait échapper à l'étiquette étouffante de Versailles. C'est ainsi qu'il ordonne la construction du Grand Trianon sur l'emplacement d'un ancien pavillon appelé le “Trianon de porcelaine”.Le résultat est spectaculaire. Contrairement au château principal, massif et imposant, le Grand Trianon est conçu comme une élégante “maison de campagne”. De larges ouvertures laissent entrer la lumière, les jardins semblent pénétrer dans les salons, et l'ensemble privilégie l'harmonie plutôt que la démonstration écrasante de puissance. Le marbre rose utilisé pour certaines colonnes lui donne d'ailleurs son surnom : le “Trianon de marbre”.Mais derrière cette apparente simplicité se cache toujours la politique. Car même dans cette retraite intime, Louis XIV continue de gouverner. Le Grand Trianon devient un lieu de négociations discrètes, de décisions stratégiques et de rencontres diplomatiques. Le pouvoir s'y exerce loin des regards de la cour.Le palais joue aussi un rôle essentiel dans la vie privée du roi. Louis XIV y séjourne fréquemment avec Madame de Maintenon, qu'il a probablement épousée secrètement après la mort de la reine. À Versailles, chaque geste du souverain était observé ; au Trianon, il pouvait enfin vivre dans une relative intimité.Après Louis XIV, les autres souverains français continueront d'utiliser le Grand Trianon. Napoléon Bonaparte y résidera lui aussi, appréciant son calme et son élégance. Plus tard, le général Charles de Gaulle y accueillera certains chefs d'État étrangers.Le Grand Trianon résume parfaitement le paradoxe de la monarchie absolue. C'est un lieu conçu pour fuir la cour… mais aussi pour mieux régner. Une retraite privée devenue, elle aussi, un théâtre du pouvoir. Hébergé par Acast.

Welcome back friends! Tonight, we continue our journey with The Bee and the Orange Tree by Madame d'Aulnoy… a dreamy fairy tale of devotion, bravery, and quiet magic.Before we drift into Part 2, here's a reminder of where our story left off…In Part 1, we met Princess Aimée, lost at sea as a baby and raised among ogres—yet somehow growing into a kind, gentle, and courageous young woman. Living in the shadows of danger, she quietly devoted herself to protecting others.One day, after a fierce storm, she discovers a shipwrecked stranger—Prince Aimé. Though they cannot understand each other's words, a deep connection forms between them. She hides him away to protect him from the ogres, returning each day with food and care… and slowly, something tender begins to grow between them.But danger lingers close. As the prince begins to suspect her true identity, and their bond deepens, their fragile safety hangs by a thread…And now, Part 2…Faced with a forced marriage to the young ogre, Aimée must act quickly to save the prince—and herself. With courage, quick thinking, and a touch of enchantment, the two set out on a perilous escape.What follows is a journey filled with transformation, clever disguises, narrow escapes, and unwavering love… as they face relentless pursuit and discover the true strength of their bond.So settle in, and let yourself be carried gently into the rest of this enchanting tale…Sweet dreams

Meet Madame Vesta La Viesta, a trailblazing mystic and self-proclaimed astral traveler who fascinated early 20th-century New York City with her cosmic adventures and spiritual teachings. As a star instructor at Harlem's Occult School of Science, she claimed her spirit could leave her body and explore distant planets. Her otherworldly encounters included extraterrestrial beings, soul-mated couples, and the intimate phenomenon she called the “soul kiss.” Madame Viesta also promoted some unusual beauty rituals, played an unexpected role in the search for a missing plane, and documented her astral revelations in her book People of Other Worlds. Was she a visionary tapping into something beyond our reality, or a master storyteller spinning cosmic mysteries for a curious audience? Watch the video version here. Have ghost stories of your own?
