Elisabeth of Bavaria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In the 1980s, Brigitte Hamann, a historian also renowned for her more recent book on Hitler's early years in Vienna (see bibliography), wrote a biography of Elisabeth, again fuelling interest in Franz Joseph's consort. Elisabeth Amalie Eugenie, Duchess in Bavaria and Princess of Bavaria (December 24, 1837 – September 10, 1898), of the House of Wittelsbach, was the Empress consort of Austria and Queen consort of Hungary due to her marriage to Emperor Franz Joseph. Elisabeth was denied any major influence on her own children's upbringing, however — they were raised by her mother-in-law Sophie, and soon after Rudolf's birth the marriage started to deteriorate, undone by Franz Josef's infidelities and Elisabeth's increasingly erratic behavior (her family, the Wittelsbachs, had a history of mental instability). en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Elisabeth_of_Bavaria   (1178 words)

Sissi (1955) Although the writers did fib frightfully with the historical truths (read for those "Elisabeth", the biography written by Brigitte Hamann), still, the sugar sweetness, the crinolines, the music and the grandeur of the scenes is breathtaking. The trilogy is about the life of the Austrian Empress and Hungarian Queen Elizabeth (1837-1898) - or "Sissi"- in the first years of her marriage to the Austrian Emperor and 'Apostolic' King of Hungary Franz-Joseph I (1830-1916) - played by Karl-Heinz Böhm.

Guardian Unlimited Books By genre Review: Winifred Wagner by Brigitte Hamann When Winifred and Siegfried's first son was born, the new mother had to process into the central hall to the sounds of Lohengrin to present the child to her mother-in-law, who sat on a throne attired in Japanese robes. Winifred's ability to negotiate her way unscathed through the endemic family quarrels, and to become, after Siegfried's death in 1930, undisputed queen of the Bayreuth Festival, seems as much testament to her emotional insensitivity as to her skill in managing people. Born Winifred Williams in 1897 in Hastings, she was the daughter of an actress and a theatre critic who had spent his early career in the tropics as an engineer. books.guardian.co.uk /reviews/biography/0,6121,1552446,00.html   (1370 words)

Bertha Freifrau (Baroness) von Suttner Suttner's life and achievements are chronicled in Beatrix Kempf, Suffragette for Peace (1972; also published as Woman for Peace, 1973; originally published in German, 1964); and Brigitte Hamann, Bertha von Suttner (1996; originally published in German, 1986). The daughter of an impoverished Austrian field marshal, she was a governess to the wealthy Suttner family from 1873. It is believed that her increasing identification with the peace movement (in 1891 she founded an Austrian pacifist organization) and her letters on the subject to Nobel caused him to include a peace prize among the awards for which he provided in his will. peace.nobel.brainparad.com /suttner_bertha.html   (407 words)

Bublos.com: Compare Book Prices ›› Bertha Von Suttner: A Life for Peace - Brigitte Hamann - Paperback As founder of the Austrian and German Peace Associations and the author of a number of novels and several works on peace, von Suttner's name became synonymous worldwide with peace activism and protest against old world order. As her conviction to initiate peace movements deepened, so her books became more impassioned. Ironically, her death eight days before the outbreak of World War I was seen by her contemporaries as a symbolic end of the possibility for world peace. www.bublos.com /isbn/0815603762.html   (768 words)

BERTHA VON SUTTNER Brigitte Hamann's book, then, is best used as a mine from which useful information can be extracted. She was helped by the extent of her learning (Bertha attributed much of her success to her fluency in languages); by a strong practical intelligence; by energy and passionate convictions; and by a personal charisma of which she was fully aware, perhaps most movingly when in her diaries she documented its fading. Bertha von Suttner should also be remembered for her belief in the equality of women. www.ppu.org.uk /learn/infodocs/people/pst_bertha.html   (1357 words)
