 Louis-Antoine de Noailles
Louis de Noailles studied theology at Paris in the Collège du Plessis, where Fénelon was his fellow-student and friend, and obtained his doctorate at the Sorbonne, 14 March, 1676.
Shortly afterwards he became involved in a controversy with Fénelon concerning the latter's "Maximes des Saints," which was condemned by the Bishops of Meaux, Chartres, and de Noailles himself.
De Noailles condemned the book (20 August, 1696), at least in the first part of his instruction, but in the second he set forth a theory on grace and predestination closely resembling that of de Barcos.

Anne de Noailles’s poems were awarded the first Prize of the Academie Francaise, at the turn of the century.
Or, perhaps the rombustious Elvire Popesco, Countess de Foy, of the Theatre du Colombier and later of the Comedie Francaise, who delighted the public with her appearance in “Ma cousine de Varsovie” and became known by the endearing sobriquet of “Notre Dame du Theatre”.
Popesco played with Sasha Guitry in the “Paradis Perdu” … Doubtless the ‘Lost paradise’ was the object of much anxiety for Matisse and his bringing back to life the memory of these etheral Romanian muses in the form of the “Blouse Roumaine” was an act of faith.

 Frontline: Alessandro de Medici
Alessandro was born in 1510 to a fl serving woman in the Medici household who, after her subsequent marriage to a muleteer, is simply referred to in existing documents as Simonetta da Collavechio.
Despite the security this kind of support should have given him, Alessandro was finally assassinated a few months after his wedding by Lorenzaccio de Medici, a distant cousin who had ingratiated himself in order to win his confidence.
According to the declaration he later published, Lorenzaccio claimed that he had executed Alessandro for the sake of the republic and that he had been able to disarm him of his personal bodyguards by setting up a sexual liaison for him as a trap.
