Podcasts about Marie Antoinette

Louise-Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun could paint anyone so they looked full of character, and vibrantly alive. So Europe's aristocrats clamored for her brush. But when the French Revolution toppled thrones and chopped off heads, she had to run for her life. For 12 years across Europe, she chased her lost Eden. Can you ever get back to the Good Old Days?

Hollywood is having a Marie Antoinette moment. The people running studios and making AI announcements have no idea how their decisions are landing with the audience that actually buys tickets, and the backlash to Jorge R. Gutierrez announcing Punky Duck as an AI project is just the most recent and visible proof. Chris and Daniel are joined by Trina Renee, a studio-side post producer whose client credits run through Warner Brothers and Fox, and Julianna Medina-Politsky, who spent a decade as an executive at Legendary Entertainment and now runs Station X Ventures, for a conversation that is more grounded in the realities of production and finance than most discussions of this subject ever get. The episode tracks what is actually happening right now. Obsession got made with private equity because Universal passed, and it worked. The Backrooms built a decade of community before anyone put it in a theater, and the studios still haven't figured out what that means for distribution. Gareth Edwards keeps coming up as the filmmaker who understands this moment best, someone who always worked like he was discovering the movie rather than executing a plan, and who is now using AI the same way. The conversation keeps landing on the same uncomfortable truth: taste is the only thing that cannot be automated, and the industry keeps trying to route around it.

Chuck Todd opens with what he calls the unmistakable arrival of a "YOLO caucus" in the Senate — a growing number of congressional Republicans who are simply done capitulating to Trump, evidenced by John Thune publicly declaring there's no need to "weaponize" the DNI position and by the broader sense that the non-Trump part of the GOP is openly preparing to move on. He argues Trump is doing everything possible to accelerate his own lame duck status: he's politicizing America's 250th anniversary in ways that genuinely alarm vulnerable Republicans, he failed to engage any of the former presidents in the 250th planning, and he's creating Marie Antoinette-style "let them eat cake" optics by celebrating himself at a moment of real economic pain for ordinary Americans. Trump's treatment of CNN's Kaitlan Collins was outrageous, his cranky behavior with the press is a tell that things aren't going well, and his decision to formally nominate Todd Blanche for Attorney General has essentially zero chance of confirmation — Blanche has burned his bridges in the Senate and the doomed January 6th weaponization fund was reportedly his idea in the first place. It's almost as if Trump is begging to put a neon "I'm a lame duck" sign on the White House. Chuck then turns to California, where ballots are still being counted at a pace that he says is actively eroding public trust in the democratic process itself — the state desperately needs to find a way to count faster — and notes that CA-06 was drawn as a safe Democratic seat but the top two finishers right now are both Republicans, while Spencer Pratt looks safer in the LA mayoral race than Steve Hilton does in the governor's race. He closes with a fascinating analysis of the Graham Platner situation in Maine, where Janet Mills' decision to leave her name on the ballot has created a Nikki Haley-style protest vote opportunity for nervous Democrats — Mills didn't bow out in disgrace so her floor is high, and if she pulls 25% or more in the primary, Chuck predicts very real conversations about replacing Platner will begin. The number to watch is ME-02: if Platner underperforms there, it's the clearest red flag that a candidate Democrats once viewed as a slam-dunk pickup is now in serious trouble. Then, Todd Ricketts — Chicago Cubs co-owner and founder of Freespoke, the search engine that labels news sources with media bias ratings — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation that bridges the increasingly intertwined worlds of media, technology, and professional sports. Ricketts makes the case that when people are given genuinely good information from across the ideological spectrum, they tend to arrive at good answers — and that Freespoke's mission is to present all sides and then get out of the way, rather than letting ad sales determine what news you see. He pushes back on the idea that the market alone can solve the data privacy crisis, arguing data may eventually need to be regulated like a utility but that nothing changes until there's a major "event" that creates real public groundswell. Ricketts is candid about Freespoke's challenges — paywalls remain a real obstacle, the left/right labeling is imperfect and done by outside groups, and the political landscape itself is shifting in ways that scramble the traditional categories . He observes that podcasts have become a primary news source because people clearly hunger for long-form content with nuance, that politicians are now visibly afraid of giving long answers because they might get clipped, and that legacy media still doesn't seem to understand why its audience has migrated elsewhere. The second half pivots into the business of running a baseball team, and Ricketts brings the same straight-talking pragmatism to MLB's looming economic crisis. He argues you cannot sell a salary cap to MLB owners without genuine revenue sharing, because if the league itself isn't competitive then everyone eventually loses — including the owners writing the biggest checks. Players currently take roughly 48% of revenue, a number he expects to climb to around 52% in the next deal, and Ricketts is honest that half of MLB's franchises are still essentially mom-and-pop operations even as private equity money is rapidly entering the sport. He talks about the difficulty of running any sports team in 2026 because fans genuinely feel like they own the franchise, why ownership groups are increasingly building entire entertainment districts around their ballparks to control the fan experience end-to-end, and the painful broadcast rights question every team is wrestling with: fans have cut the cord, the old TV economics no longer work, and ownership has to be flexible with new broadcast partners even as they ask themselves whether season ticket holders should be entitled to free access to every game. Ricketts closes by laying out what would qualify as a disappointing season for the Cubs — a sober assessment from an owner who has watched the economics of his sport, and the media landscape his business depends on, both transform at the same time. Finally, Chuck answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and spends a few minutes reflecting on the life of his grandmother who passed away this week.

Nous sommes le 31 janvier 1786, à Versailles, où Germaine de Staël, née Necker, âgée de vingt ans, gravit le perron du château afin d'être présentée officiellement au roi Louis XVI et à la reine Marie-Antoinette. Ce rituel de l'Ancien Régime, censé consacrer son rang, se transforme pourtant en un échec cuisant : troublée par l'hostilité des courtisans, la jeune femme rate sa révérence et déchire sa jupe. Ce moment raté devient pour elle une expérience fondatrice qui lui révèle le prix de la liberté et la violence subie par ceux que la Cour désigne comme des « étrangers ». Germaine aura sa revanche, lors de la Révolution, son salon devient le foyer des idées constitutionnelles et libérales. Mais son esprit insoumis et sa défense acharnée de la liberté de penser déclencheront, plus tard, la haine de Napoléon Bonaparte qui la condamnera à l'exil. Traquée à travers l'Europe, la frondeuse transformera ses épreuves en une œuvre intellectuelle monumentale, dont son chef-d'œuvre « De l'Allemagne » reste un symbole de la résistance au despotisme. Femme de passion et de génie, Germaine de Staël s'éteint le 14 juillet 1817, laissant derrière elle l'image d'une combattante infatigable pour qui la pensée ne pouvait être muselée. Partons sur les traces de celle qui écrivait : « La bêtise et la sottise diffèrent essentiellement en ceci, que les bêtes se soumettent volontiers à la nature, et que les sots se flattent toujours de dominer la société. » Avec Stéphanie Genand, professeure de littérature française du XVIIIe siècle à l'université de Paris-Est-Créteil.

In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Juliane Greil darüber, warum Social Media in den Geschichtsunterricht integriert werden sollte. Da Schüler*innen oft mehrere Stunden am Tag mit dem Konsum kurzer Videoformate verbringen, die auch historisches (Halb-)Wissen vermitteln, können diese, wie sie in ihrer Forschung zeigt, sowohl als Ressource betrachtet, müssen aber vor allem als Geschichtsproduzenten eingeordnet und hinterfragt werden. Gästin: Juliane Greil hat Geschichte, Englisch und Bildungswissenschaften auf Lehramt für Gymnasien und Gesamtschulen an der Universität Siegen studiert. Sie ist derzeit Referendarin an der Oberschule Rockwinkel in Bremen und Promovierende im Fach Geschichte an der Uni Bremen und forscht zu historisch-politischen Inhalten auf Social Media und wie diese zusammen mit Schülerinnen und Schülern im Rahmen des Geschichtsunterrichts dekonstruiert und kritisch beurteilt werden können.

Send us Fan MailIn today's episode, I interview Michael Cusumano and Charity Schubert, director, producer and lead actor of the short film "Last Minute," a comedic look at trying to get a school project done at the last minute in a world without the internet and smart phones.Listen to hear about the story that grew out of generational differences between school today and 40 years ago, a bit of luck in casting one of the film's main characters, and the way the production crowdsourced period furnishings for the set to make it look and feel like the late 1980s.Books mentioned in this episode include:Making Movies by Sydney LumetThe Only Woman in the Room: A Historical Novel of Hedy Lamarr and Her Secret Wartime Invention by Marie BenedictThe Parable of the Sower by Octavia E.

Hedwig koos voor deze aflevering Sofia Coppola; een mooie aanleiding om het onder andere te hebben over representatie en privilege. De keuzefilm van Hedwig is Marie Antoinette (2006), de snoep-kleurige kostuumfilm over de laatste koningin van Frankrijk. Ruud greep de gelegenheid aan om Southern Gothic-film The Beguiled (2017) eindelijk eens te kijken, waarin Colin Farrell een heel huis vol vrouwen probeert te verleiden.  "(26:10)" - Marie Antoinette (keuzefilm Hedwig) "(39:07)" - The Beguiled (keuzefilm Ruud) "(52:45)" - Schandaalschaal, afronding, en aankondiging aflevering 4

In this bonus episode, you'll hear more from Sofia Cababa Wood who discusses Marie Antoinette, its themes, and movies that would pair well with it. Antoinette was ruled by her circumstances, but the 2006 movie shows us a more personal side, all while avoiding graphic imagery of her ultimate demise. We also talk about the funny, entertaining MTV Cribs parody that Jason Schwartzman did which appears on the DVD's special features.-Sofia Cababa Wood is a Seattle-based product designer at eBay. She received her Bachelor's Degree in Visual Communication Design from the University of Washington in 2020. She cut her teeth at various design studios, with a specialty in data visualization.

Live-Aufzeichnung aus Heidelberg mit Video. Anfang des Jahres 1785 steht der Graf Cagliostro auf dem Höhepunkt seiner Macht. Ganz Europa ist in den Magier und Alchemisten vernarrt. Adlige, Fürsten und Kardinäle ersuchen ihn um Hilfe, um sich aus medizinischen und finanziellen Notlagen zu befreien. So auch der Kardinal Rohan, der im Januar 1785 mit Cagliostro Geister beschwört, um die Gunst der Königin Marie-Antoinette zu gewinnen. Ein letzte große Séance steht hierfür an, die für den Grafen und seine Frau alles verändern sollte……..Das Folgenbild zeigt die Büste vom Grafen Cagliostro.

Based on Lady Antonia Fraser's 2001 biography and directed by Sofia Coppola, the 2006 Oscar-winning movie Marie Antoinette portrays the queen in a way you might not expect, making her a relatable person, a teenager who becomes a leader, coping with life's ups and downs all while trying to have some fun too. The stylistic flair and visual embellishments (watch for a pair of Converse sneakers) make plenty of scenes feel like a dessert tray thanks to the friendly, sweet color choices and Milena Canonero's work which won a 2007 Oscar for Best Achievement in Costume Design. Designer Sofia Cababa Wood has always loved the movie and as a teenager reenacted moments while visiting France, it's a movie the Seattle-based product designer at eBay definitely watches once a year.-Sofia Cababa Wood is a Seattle-based product designer at eBay.

How did Louis XIV use his day-to-day life, especially his marriage, to help create the mythology of the Sun King as semi-divine, radiant and unrivalled?In 17th-century France, monarchy was performed, witnessed, and widely circulated. Using portraits, medals, sculptures and official pamphlets, Louis XIV meticulously constructed his own image, appearing as Apollo, Jupiter, Hercules, Neptune, a Roman emperor, and even as the sun itself. Professor Suzannah Lipscomb and Dr. Abby Zanger explore the Sun King's carefully staged world.More:Marie AntoinetteListen on AppleListen on SpotifyMontaigne: Philosopher of the French RenaissanceListen on AppleListen on SpotifyPresented by Professor Suzannah Lipscomb.

År 1789 kollapsade det franska enväldet i en kaskad av politiska, ekonomiska och sociala omvälvningar. Reform efter reform gjorde året till en vattendelare i västvärldens politiska historia.Det gamla ifrågasattes, och visionen om en bättre ordning tog form. Kungar och adelsmän tvingades dela makt med fler – inte minst med en växande och allt rikare borgerlighet. Feodala privilegier avskaffades, och principer om mänskliga rättigheter slogs fast på papper. Världen skulle inte bli sig lik.Men varför hände det? Hur kom det sig att kung Ludvig XVI till slut sammankallade generalständerna – den franska ståndsförsamlingen som inte hade mötts på mycket länge – och därmed släppte loss krafter som snart hotade att krossa monarkin? I efterhand kan beslutet framstå som ödesdigert. Några år senare avrättades både Ludvig XVI och Marie Antoinette med giljotin.Och vad fick de missnöjda folkmassorna i Paris att inte bara invänta förändringar, utan att själva ta initiativet – beväpna sig och storma den gamla fästningen Bastiljen den 14 juli 1789? Det är den händelsen som ligger till grund för att Frankrikes nationaldag firas just den 14 juli.I detta avsnitt av podden Harrisons dramatiska historia samtalar Dick Harrison, professor i historia vid Lunds universitet, och fackboksförfattaren Katarina Harrison Lindbergh om franska revolutionens första skede: varför revolutionen bröt ut och hur den tog sig uttryck innan utvecklingen spårade ur i skräckvälde.Bild: Stormningen av Bastiljen i Paris den 14 juli 1789, en symbolisk startpunkt för den franska revolutionen och monarkins maktförlust.

SEND ME A TEXT MESSAGE NOWTuesday's elections revealed something deeper than politics. Americans are exhausted, financially stressed, burned out by nonstop outrage, and increasingly voting out of fear instead of hope. I break down the election results, media hype, economic frustration, and why the country feels one bad news alert away from collectively losing its mind.Then I look at Donald Trump defending plans for a massive new White House ballroom while millions of Americans struggle with gas prices, groceries, rent, and debt. Is it confidence, terrible timing, or Marie Antoinette politics with extra chandeliers? I unpack why the story is hitting such a nerve.And finally, I remember Ted Turner…the media outlaw who changed television forever. CNN. TNT. TBS. Twenty four hour news. Sports. Spectacle. Controversy. Modern media still lives inside the world Ted Turner built, whether we like it or not.A WORLD GONE MAD with me, Jeff Alan Wolf. No spin. No BS.

Ellen Adair and Eric Gilde discuss the 1958 baseball movie musical, "Damn Yankees." They introduce the film (1:10), with an overview of the story, the cast, and filmmakers, and review the 20-80 baseball scouting grades for rating the film, with a new metaphor (6:57). Quick promos for "Cryptid" and the podcast "Sometimes it Rains" (13:47). Amount of Baseball (16:09) is helped by early baseball and a good montage, but there's not a ton here. Baseball Accuracy (23:15) kicks off with some debate on the central premise and impact on score, umpire razzing, and Joe's inconsistent baseball opinions. Does Shoeless Joe Jackson exist in the world of this film? Some Kansas City baseball timeline problems, the six months out of every year fallacy, and goulash vs. Willie Mays. They dive in on Carlos Paula, Angel Scull, Joe Black,the integration of the Washington Senators, and a brief racial history anecdote with the Twins. A Washington Senators overview and look at pennant-less droughts throughout baseball history. How often do you need to hit a homer to save a losing ball club, w/r/t the 1957 Senators pitching rotation. Accuracy in the song "Heart," plus newspaper accuracy. Storytelling (1:01:21) dives in on the confusing terms of the deal with the devil, and who Joe Hardy actually is. "Who's Got the Pain?" These scouts, I guess. They also discuss Joe Hardy's HOF case, games missed in the storytelling, problems with singing a song and writing a letter simultaneously, and songs removed and added from the Broadway version. How old is Lola? How superb is Gwen Verdon in "Whatever Lola Wants"? They wrap up with "Two Lost Souls," Sister Miller's name, the costume design, Mr. Applegate's particular scope of power, and the flatness of the cinematography. The Score Tool (1:42:20) considers the tunes and scoring of Richard Adler and Jerry Ross. Acting (1:44:00) discusses chiefly the performances of Tab Hunter, Gwen Verdon, Ray Walston and Jean Stapleton, with some discussion of the ensemble and the impact of the cast carrying over from the Broadway run. Delightfulness of Catcher (1:50:19) assesses the character of Smokey, played by Nathaniel Frey. Delightfulness of Announcer (1:53:42) sees a short debate on its existence. Lack of Misogyny (1:55:34) considers wives singing about their husbands' obsessions with baseball as they wait around to be noticed, undermining Sister Miller's baseball fandom, and 1001 issues with "Goodbye Old Girl" and "Empty Chair." There are Misogyny issues with Gloria and Applegate, too. Marie Antoinette injustice. They wrap up with the missing songs' impact on this tool, and Joe and Meg's reunion.  No spoilers on the following segments: Yes or No (2:17:20), Six Degrees of Baseball (2:22:00), Favorite Moment (2:24:26) Least Favorite Moment (2:26:20), Scene We Would Have Liked to See (2:28:22), Dreamiest Player (2:30:27), Favorite Performance (2:31:10), and Next Time (2:33:06).

What does it take to spend 50 years championing history's most maligned king and turn that passion into six published novels?This week on Rock, Paper, Swords, hosts Justin Hill and Matthew Harffy are joined by Anne Easter Smith, author of a celebrated series of novels spanning the entire York dynasty. Born near Winchester, raised partly in Egypt watching Suez Canal convoys from her window, and a resident of the United States since 1968, Anne has one of the most extraordinary life stories we've heard on the show, and it's all filtered into the rich, meticulous historical fiction she writes.Anne tells us how Josephine Tey's The Daughter of Time converted her into a lifelong Ricardian at the age of 21, how a chance meeting at a New York City party led to a publishing deal with Simon & Schuster, and how she built her six-novel York dynasty series from the ground up, always insisting on visiting every location her characters walk through.We also dig into the realities of the publishing industry: the golden age of author tours and dedicated publicists, the impact of the 2008 recession on advances and promotion, and the surprisingly personal dynamics of the agent-author relationship.Anne also previews her upcoming panel at the Historical Novel Society Conference in Maynooth, where she'll join Margaret George and Leslie Carroll to make the case for history's supposed villains: Richard III, Nero, and Marie Antoinette.Before Anne joins us, Justin and Matthew check in on their own writing: Matthew is filling in the historical detail on his first Roman novel (a possible new series set in ancient Rome), while Justin is on deadline for his latest Warhammer novel and thinking ahead to a contemporary shipping story.A brilliant conversation about history, storytelling, the craft of writing, and the power of fiction to make us feel the past.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/E0uAV2wuJg0Support the show on Patreon from just £1/month — bonus episodes, Q&As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/c/RockPaperSwordsPodcasthttps://linktr.ee/RockPaperSwords

James Delbourgo, professor of history at Rutgers University and author of A Noble Madness: the Dark Side of Collecting from Antiquity to Now, talks about: Why he's written about contemporary art so extensively, as a history academic who's very interested in the present, going to galleries and wondering who collectors are right now, raising a lot of questions about archetypes for what would become a big part of his book; how collectors can not only be defined as powerful, they can also be defined as weak, unhinged and deranged, among other things; how the profile of the collector, over time, is more a corkscrew than an arc, with the Freudian view of the collector was seen as repressed and even dangerous, whereas the contemporary collector is seen as being more about power; how in Robert Bloch's book "Psycho," upon which the movie was based, the Norman Bates character is actually described as a collector but one who is ugly and unprepossessing, and how the Hitchcock film turned him into a charming, ingratiating figure who turns the audience on his side; how really thoroughly experiencing housed collections (prime examples are the Hearst Castle in San Simeon, CA, and    the Vittoriale degli Italiani in Gardone, owned by Gabrielle d'Anunzio) was embedded in his writing the book; the collector as puppeteer, as orchestrator (and collector) of people, as William Randolph Hearst was; how encountering someone's place, and their things, is "a physical experience that constitutes the way you understand this person and your relationship to them," as James put it; and how Freudian interpretation has had such a lasting relevance over the years, even as it's gone out of fashion. In the 2nd half of our conversation, available to Patreon Supporters of the podcast, you'll hear James talk about: How hoarding, like the Middle Ages, has waned, and is tossed around far too lazily; the 'l' word, as in "loser," which he used to describe Robert Bloch's Norman Bates, whom he qualifies as a 'lovable loser,' particularly because collectors like Bates collect authentically, out of passion, not for financial gains; how he couldn't quite get the marketing department to change the subtitle of his book (particularly "The Dark Side" part), and why he's interested in authentic collectors, those who collect for love, with no thoughts of profits or strategy, the type of collector who he believes is vindicated in the end, as opposed to the Charles Foster Kane-type collector, who collects to accumulate; the democratization of collecting, including 'garbologists,' in which everything can, and does, get commodified; countercultural collectors, who collect things like deformed animal corpses, their own child's placentas, and other curiosities, and how they don't care what people think of them, or in fact that they want to defy popular opinion…as James put it: "their truth to self is uncompromised…by notions of taste or fine arts or utilitarianism…they're the freest people of all…they've freed themselves from the tyranny of the respectable opinion of other people;" and finally he describes an exhibition about Marie Antoinette at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London (the lines to get in were staggering), a collector of shoes and porcelain and snuff boxes and furniture…who was so vilified/demonized for political reasons, as the enemy of the people…she is the classic case of the political demonization of a collector who is executed as if it would purge the suffering of her subjects; the most classic case of that political question around the collector, and how, ironically, it was her execution that made her immortal.  

In this episode, host Dr Ellie Woodacre interviews Matthieu Mensch on his book Marie-Thérèse Charlotte of France: Daughter of Marie-Antoinette and Almost Queen, which will be published in May 2026 in Routledge's Lives of Royal Women series. We discuss the trials and tribulations that Marie-Thérèse experienced during the French Revolution and her vital role, in the ever shifting landscape of monarchy in 19th century France.Guest Bio: Matthieu Mensch is a PhD graduate of the Universities of Strasbourg and Federico II of Naples. His research focuses on queenship studies, court studies and the iconography of royal women in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. He is currently a research associate at the ARCHE Laboratory in the Faculty of Historical Sciences at the University of Strasbourg. He published Les femmes de Louis XVIII at Perrin in 2024 and he is working now on the exile of the queens and princesses of France between 1789 and 1866.

Henriette Genet, future Madame Campan, entre très jeune à la cour de Versailles grâce à son éducation exceptionnelle, rare pour une femme de son temps. D'abord lectrice des filles de Louis XV, elle découvre de l'intérieur un monde brillant, cruel, frivole et profondément inégalitaire. Très vite, elle comprend aussi combien l'instruction des femmes y est négligée, même chez les princesses. Sa rencontre avec Marie-Antoinette change son destin : entre les deux femmes naît une relation de confiance qui durera jusqu'aux heures les plus sombres de la Révolution. Devenue première femme de chambre et confidente de la reine, Madame Campan assiste à l'effondrement de la monarchie et partage les dangers de la famille royale. Après la chute de Marie-Antoinette et la Terreur, elle doit tout reconstruire. Elle choisit alors de consacrer sa vie à l'éducation des jeunes filles, convaincue que le savoir est leur meilleure protection. À Saint-Germain-en-Laye puis à Écouen, elle fonde des établissements novateurs où l'on enseigne langues, histoire, littérature, musique et autonomie. Soutenue un temps par Joséphine puis par Napoléon, elle devient une figure majeure de l'éducation féminine en France. Le parcours de Madame Campan raconte ainsi comment une femme de cour a transformé son expérience du pouvoir en combat pour l'instruction des femmes.

What if the French Revolution wasn't just history… but a full-blown, fourth-wall-breaking comedy?In this episode, we dive into The Revolutionists, Lauren Gunderson's bold, irreverent, and wildly entertaining play that reimagines 1793 Paris through the voices of four fierce women who refuse to stay silent.Meet Olympe de Gouges, a playwright fighting to make her words matter. Charlotte Corday, an assassin determined to change the course of history. Marie Antoinette, the ribbon-loving former queen living in her own reality. And Marianne Angelle, a revolutionary force representing the fight against oppression beyond France's borders.Part comedy, part commentary, and part theatrical rebellion, The Revolutionists explores feminism, activism, legacy, and the power of chosen sisterhood—all while questioning its own story in real time.It's sharp. It's chaotic. It's hilarious. And it's more relevant than ever.Catch The Revolutionists at Black Swamp Players, running April 24–26 and May 1–3.

Zijn schoondochter Pamela was de beste spion die hij ooit had. En zij kende al zijn geheimen, angsten en heldenmoed. In zijn laatste levensjaren nog ging zij met hem mee als gezelschap op het jacht van Onassis. Daar ontmoette zij niet alleen Maria Callas, maar ook oude vrienden: JFK en zijn Jackie. Pamela Digby Churchill Harriman kende iédereen. Ze was een overlevingskunstenares, geliefde van een lange reeks van de machtigste en rijkste mannen uit heel de wereld en een politiek dier van de buitenklasse. Zij was het die Bill Clinton ontdekte voor het presidentschap. Hij schonk haar een droombaan: ambassadeur van Amerika in Parijs. Ook daar was zij een spectaculair succes. Ze wond Jacques Chirac om haar vinger en wist vrede te stichten in een gruwelijke oorlog. Wát een leven! Margot Dijgraaf - Germaine de Staël. Schrijver, balling en feminist avant la lettre Germaine verslaat zelfs Pamela als vrouw met een avontuurlijk leven in wilde tijden. Ze was briljant, schreef bestsellers in zowel de romanliteratuur als wetenschappelijke en politieke essays. Goethe vertaalde haar, Klemens von Metternich en tsaar Alexander ontvingen haar, Wilhelm von Humboldt was een vriend, filosofen als Friedrich von Schlegel en Benjamin Constant waren haar metgezellen, koningin Marie Antoinette was een vriendin die haar wijze adviezen helaas niet volgde. Haar leven tussen 1766 en 1817 viel samen met alle grote revoluties van die jaren en zij speelde daar een opmerkelijke rol in, kende alle hoofdfiguren, correspondeerde en discussieerde met hen. Haar kasteeltje in Coppet, even buiten Genève, was haar salon en die samenkomsten werden 'de Staten Generaal van Europa' genoemd. Ze had één vijand. Napoleon. Ze kritiseerde hem en zijn ondemocratische machtsdrift rechtstreeks in zijn gezicht. Hij liet haar verbannen en de eerste druk van haar boek over Duitsland vernietigen. Toch werd ook dit een bestseller. Margit van der Steen – ‘Ware wonderdieren’. De eerste vrouwen in de Nederlandse politiek (1917-1927) Wie waren de vrouwen die als eersten in ons land politieke functies konden veroveren? Wat maakten zij mee? Hoe werden zij bejegend? Dit boek is een tijdsbeeld van Nederland en het verhaal van deze pioniers. Het werd ze allerminst makkelijk gemaakt, want op rechts en net zo goed op links waren veel mannen allerminst ingenomen of overtuigd van de waarde van de vrouw in de politiek. Troelstra zag hen als risico voor de komst van het socialistisme. De gereformeerden vonden dat vrouwen geen plaats hadden in de harde wereld van macht en geld. De katholieken vonden het moederschap en niet het bestuur haar ware bestemming. Maar daar trokken de politieke pioniers zich weinig van aan. Fascinerende mensen, voor de duvel niet bang. Leer ze kennen. Suze Groeneweg, Carry Pothuis-Smit, Aletta Jacobs. Maar ook Wilhelmina van Itallie-Van Embden, een meesterinterviewer die Kamerlid werd. Frida Katz, het wetgevingskanon van de CHU. Eiske ten Bos-Harkema, een 'rooie vrouw' die het cachot in moest toen ze een 'MeToo'-schandaal onthulde. De liberalen, die het meest hun best hadden gedaan om het vrouwenkiesrecht te realiseren, werden er niet voor beloond. Algemeen kiesrecht beloonde vooral de socialisten. En veel vrouwen conservatief te stemmen. Florian Illies - Als de zon ondergaat (verschijnt op 12 mei in de Nederlandse vertaling) In de zomer van 1933 was het heerlijk aan de Côte d'Azur. Maar Thomas Mann was wanhopig. Kon hij ooit terug naar München naar zijn schrijftafel, zijn romans, verhalen, essays? Florian Illies' documentaire roman schetst die eerste maanden in ballingschap en de ontworteling van de grote schrijver, zijn familie en hun vrienden in Sanary sur Mer. Hoe dochter Erika een dappere regisseur van het overleven tegen Hitler werd. Hoe zoon Klaus in Zandvoort levensmoe leek, maar in verzet een levensdoel hervond. Hoe zoon Golo van verlegen student een stille held werd. En Goebbels stiekem meekeek. IJzingwekkend. Dik Verkuil - De ongenaakbare Bolkestein Een monumentale biografie die een tijdsbeeld geeft van Nederland in de twintigste eeuw. Van het chique milieu van de Amsterdamse elite, van dat van de studenten vroeger, van Shell als koloniaal bedrijf, van de VVD die transformeerde van nette heren partij naar volkse machtsfactor. En Frits Bolkestein loopt daar doorheen, eigenwijs, horkerig, provocerend, aarzelend tussen conservatisme en liberalisme. Trots op zijn gave van 'haute vulgarisation' die maatschappelijke thema's hielp agenderen. Maar ook tragisch. Want als bewindsman, als Eurocommissaris en als politiek leider in de paarse periode boekte hij nauwelijks concrete resultaten. Het premierschap ontglipte hem door eigen, aarzelende vaagheid. Zijn opvolging werd een drama. En zijn Magnum Opus, het boek dat hij decennialang aankondigde, werd een flop. Maar toch, wát een leven! Kevin Rudd – On Xi Jinping. How Xi's marxist nationalism is shaping China and the World Hoe denkt de machtigste man op aarde? Sinoloog en oud-premier van Australië, Kevin Rudd, durft het aan in het brein van Xi te kruipen en zijn ideologische kerngedachten te ontcijferen. Zo kruipen we met hem in de geest van een totalitair heerser, een man naar wie iedereen in China moet opkijken en die men heeft te gehoorzamen. Meest fundamenteel is het feit dat Xi een ware gelovige is. Het marxisme-leninisme is de enige wetenschappelijk bewezen analyse van de wereld en wie deze zuiver volgt, kán niet falen. Daarom heeft hij met drie correcties het bewind van zijn voorganger Deng Xiaoping diepgaand veranderd. Bij de centrale macht van de Partij en bij de economische verschillen binnen China wijst hij een koers 'naar links' aan. Terug naar Lenin en de jonge Mao. Nivellering en een nadruk op staatsbedrijven. Zuivering in partij en legertop. Bij de nationale identiteit van China wijst Xi naar het verleden, naar de tijd voor Mao. De ideologie, cultuur en zelfs bepaalde zeden en religie uit de keizertijd zijn weer acceptabel. Want China is en was één en superieur. Als rode keizer is Xi wereldlijk leider en spiritueel heerser tegelijk. *** Tijdlijn 00:00:00 – Introductie 00:06:75 – Pamela Digby 00:29:48 – Germaine de Staël 00:42:07 – De eerste vrouwen in de Nederlandse politiek 01:05:48 – De familie Mann op de vlucht voor Hitler 01:12:22 – Frits Bolkestein 01:32:11 – Xi Jinping 01:58:06 – Einde *** Verder luisteren Kingmaker 479 - Winston Churchill.

Hopefully, there's still time to talk to your school's guidance counselor about changing your major.Professionals are now building personal “AI teams” of multiple specialized agents, dramatically expanding individual capacity while reshaping workloads and expectations.Citing potential misuse risks, OpenAI is restricting access to its most powerful new cybersecurity model, following a cautious approach already adopted by Anthropic.  “It's so good you can't have it.”A hacker group known as “FlamingChina” claims to have exfiltrated over 10 petabytes of sensitive data from China's National Supercomputing Center in Tianjin in one of the largest breaches on record.Iran-linked hackers have reportedly disrupted critical operational systems at U.S. oil, gas, and water facilities, in a demonstration of “You hit us, we hit you.”A new independent audit reveals that Google, Microsoft, and Meta shockingly continue tracking users even after privacy opt-out signals are enabled.The New York Times has published a detailed investigation naming British cryptographer Adam Back as the strongest circumstantial candidate yet to be Bitcoin's mysterious creator, Satoshi Nakamoto.  Quick, now's the time to get really friendly with Adam.And just like filing taxes, the sooner we get to it, the sooner we get our refund!  Let's go!

Nous sommes le lundi 5 octobre 1789. C'est sous une pluie battante qu'une foule de plusieurs centaines de femmes, peut-être des milliers, quitte Paris pour marcher sur Versailles. On les représentera montées sur des canons, des armes et des rameaux à la main. On les traitera de furies. Elles partent réclamer du pain au couple royal et veulent le ramener à Paris. A l'aube du 6 octobre, elles envahissant le château, forcent à paraître au balcon, l'insultent avant de crier « vive la reine » face à son courage. Elles finiront par arracher à Louis XVI la ratification de la Déclaration des droits de l'homme. La reine confiera : « Jamais on ne pourra croire ce qui s'est passé. On aura beau dire, rien ne sera exagéré ». Ces journées du 5 et 6 octobre 1789 marquent l'irruption spectaculaire des femmes comme actrices majeures de l'histoire. Le transfert forcé de la monarchie aux Tuileries signe le crépuscule d'un règne et le basculement vers une dynamique populaire guidée « par le bas ». Ces insurgées de la première heure ont brisé leurs chaînes pour devenir de nouvelles amazones. Des femmes venues d'horizons divers comme Théroigne de Méricourt, fille d'un riche laboureur liégeois, Olympe de Gouges, femme de lettres, Reine Audu, active sur le marché des halles, à Paris, comme beaucoup d'autres que l'on appelle les poissardes. Cependant, leur gloire sera brève : après avoir été le moteur du changement, ces héroïnes seront progressivement exclues de la sphère politique et sacrifiées par un pouvoir masculin qui les relèguera au statut de mineures incapables. Comment ces femmes ont-elles réussi à transformer une émeute de la faim en une victoire constitutionnelle majeure ? Quel rôle ont joué les préjugés de genre dans la répression et l'invisibilisation ultérieure de ces « amazones » ? Dans quelle mesure les journées d'octobre ont-elles scellé la fin irrémédiable de la sacralité monarchique en France ? Avec Loris Chavanette « Les femmes entrent en révolution » ; Tallandier.

In this episode, I look into an early 20th century claim of a supernatural encounter with the past. Did two Oxford dons really see Marie Antoinette at Versailles in 1901? Was it a haunting? A "time-slip"? A psychic journey? Or was it a hoax or a simple mistake?

In this eighth episode in our dude-only season of The Skeptical Shaman podcast, host Rachel White (of TOTEM Readings) chats with Craig Moyer, freelance copywriter, advertising expert, novelist, and all around "creative" about our post-AI (and post-human) billionaire-led world-- and how best to navigate it!Craig's recommendation? Tackle the bad guys (and evil forces) with a sharp sense of humor, like he did in his mock ad campaign for the recent World Economic Forum conference in Davos, titled: "Let them eat snake!", a hilarious riff on Marie Antoinette's famous line: "Let them eat cake!".Craig, a consummate writer of text both short and long, takes listeners through how he's using his creative gifts to speak truth to real power-- and how to resist the dread of our modern world by engaging in the ultimate act of rebellion: creating art. Rachel and Craig also discuss Rachel's favorite city, New Orleans, which also happens to be Craig's home-- and even dig into where to eat, drink, and how best to enjoy this particular spiritual center.Rachel's LINKS:TOTEM Readings Website: https://www.totemreadings.comTOTEM Readings Substack: https://totemrach.substack.comRachel's Other Links: https://linktr.ee/totemrachPlease support the Sponsors of The Skeptical Shaman Podcast:TOTEM + PUCK HCKY Merch Drop: https://puckhcky.com/collections/totemThe TOTEM Flower Essence Deck: https://a.co/d/gw16LsGThe TOTEM Flower Essences: https://www.etsy.com/shop/TotemReadingsATXTOTEM Spiritual Transformation Coaching: https://www.totemreadings.com/coachingTOTEM Business of Woo Mentoring: https://www.totemreadings.com/business-of-wooCraig's Links: Website: https://www.craigpmoyer.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craig-moyer-0103479/Please note: The views and opinions expressed on The Skeptical Shaman do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the podcast.

En 1787, un jeune breton croise le regard d'un roi à six ans de l'échafaud. Et pendant soixante ans, Chateaubriand n'a plus quitté ce regard.Franck Ferrand nous plonge dans les mémoires de François-René de Châteaubriand, témoin privilégié des bouleversements de la fin de la monarchie et des débuts de la Révolution française. Écrivain légitimiste, Châteaubriand a vécu de près la chute de Louis XVI, qu'il a rencontré brièvement en 1787 à Versailles. Ses écrits reflètent son profond attachement à la couronne, malgré les horreurs de la Terreur qu'il a pu observer. Nous suivons le jeune Châteaubriand, intimidé mais fasciné, lors de sa première visite à la somptueuse cour de Versailles. Le roi Louis XVI, encore puissant mais déjà fragilisé, l'accueille avec bienveillance, sans se douter du sort qui l'attend. Châteaubriand gardera à jamais le souvenir de cette rencontre éphémère, qui deviendra le symbole de la fin d'un monde.Lorsque la Révolution éclate, Châteaubriand en est bouleversé. Témoin des violences révolutionnaires, il décide d'émigrer en Amérique, avant de revenir en France pour tenter de défendre la monarchie. Ses écrits témoignent de sa fidélité indéfectible envers les Bourbons, malgré les déceptions et les revers qu'il a pu subir.

Marie Antoinette went to her death as one of the most hated people in the world, but in recent years she has inspired millions with her style. How did she become such a contradiction?For this episode, Kate and the Betwixt team went out and about, specifically to the V&A Museum in London. There, Kate met Dr Sarah Grant, curator of the exhibition 'Marie Antoinette Style', about the life of Marie Antoinette, just how much she spent on her clothes and jewelry, and how this may have led to her death.This episode was edited by Hannah Feodorov.

The late eighteenth century history was a time in Europe when a brilliant old world collapsed and raucous new one rose to replace it. In this episode the biographer Veronica Buckley explains how the Hapsburgs, one of the great European families, responded to this revolutionary change. It was a stern challenge but inspired by one of the great matriarchs in European history, Empress Maria Theresia, her son Emperor Joseph II, his successor Leopold and their sister, Marie Antoinette, reacted as best they could in that perilous year, 1790.

Greg Jenner is joined in 17th-century France by Dr Jonathan Spangler and comedian Tom Allen to learn all about Philippe, Duc d'Orléans, Louis XIV's younger brother. King Louis XIV is one of the most famous monarchs in French history: the man who built and presided over the glittering court at Versailles, established himself as an absolute ruler, and whose 72-year reign is still the longest in European history. But what about his younger brother, Philippe? Who was the man who grew up and lived in the shadow of the Sun King? Raised to defer to his brother at all costs, his promising military career was cut short when it seemed like he might outshine Louis. When all eyes were on him as heir to the throne, he would wear dresses to provoke shock at courtly balls. He balanced his marriage to his witty German wife, Liselotte, with a decades-long relationship with his aristocratic male lover, the Chevalier de Lorraine – and other men of the court. And he maintained an image as a louche and irresponsible courtier while increasing his personal wealth through clever financial management. This episode explores the complexities and contradictions of Philippe's life, and examines the difficult position of second sons in royal history.If you're a fan of royal sibling rivalries, the gossip and glamour of the French court, and queer history, you'll love our episode on Philippe, Duc d'Orléans.If you want more fascinating French royals, listen to our episodes on Catherine de Medici and Marie Antoinette.
