		Elisabeth was carefully educated in music, dancing, art, Latin, Greek (her family nickname was “La Greque” for her fondness for Greek), some natural sciences, and, largely through her association with Descartes, philosophy.
		Elisabeth was disappointed with Descartes’ answer, since she thought it did not fit the facts of experience: We can imagine the soul to move the body in the same way a fictitious “heaviness” [a quality of bodies] moves a body (letter from Descartes, May 21, 1643)
		Elisabeth pushed Descartes back into his own scepticism by reminding him of the rule he himself founded: that in speaking of the true and the false, all errors are derived from forming judgments on that which one does not see clearly enough (letter to Descartes, July 1, 1643).

	Elisabeth of the Palantine
		Elisabeth was born in Heidelberg the eldest daughter of Friedrich V, the ruler of the Palatine (or Pfalz) and of Princess Elizabeth Stuart of England.
		Elisabeth understood and accepted his theory of mind-body dualism, but felt that it did not sufficiently acknowledge the interrelation of body and mind; she agreed that peace of mind was a worthy goal, but did not see how it could be attained in the midst of emotional turmoil.
		So, when Elisabeth became seriously ill in the spring of 1645, he told her that the cause was her sadness about things out of her control and that the cure was simply not to think of them, to remain calm.

		By this time Elisabeth was widely regarded as one of the most beautiful women in Europe--a distinction which she took great pains to maintain.

		Despite the startling similarity in their views on politics, literature, religion, etc, Elisabeth and Rudolf were far from close; indeed, after the ultimatum insisting on her being in charge of his upbringing, the Empress showed no interest whatsoever in her only son.

	Books \| A funny-peculiar mind-body picture
		In 1643, the young and charming Princess Elisabeth of Bohemia asked Descartes how such a thing was possible and, while Descartes responded by performing some of his fanciest philosophical footwork, he was unable fully to satisfy her on this point, hoping that egregious flattery of both her body and her soul would substitute for substance.
		Second, Descartes was greatly concerned with keeping his own body and soul together for as long as his wits could enable him to do so.
		He could not do enough for Princess Elisabeth of Bohemia, offering to cure both her metaphysical malaise and her constipation, and dedicating the Principles of Philosophy to this most Protestant of princesses - which was not the cleverest of moves if you wanted to ingratiate yourself with the Catholic universities.

	METU Department of Philosophy :: SOCRATES/ERASMUS Program
		Descartes wrote on morality in his letters to Princess Elisabeth of Bohemia and in his last major work, The Passions of the Soul.
		Although the Passions is a detailed account of what passions are, and how they are caused by the movement of the ‘animal spirits’, Descartes here tackles issues of moral philosophy as well.
		The examination of passions serves partly as a means to their ‘control’: It is through the knowledge of the mechanism of the passions that one can control them and hence attain virtue.We will try to clarify Descartes’ views in moral philosophy by reading his letters to the Princess Elisabeth, and the Passions of the Soul.

		Lisa Shapiro's edition of the correspondence between Princess Elisabeth of Bohemia and Rene Descartes appears in a series, "The Other Voice in Early Modern Europe", dedicated to restoring the presence of women writing during the Early Modern period.
		Its appearance in such a context gives rise to the reflection that Princess Elisabeth, unlike many others in this series, cannot ever have been said to be a woman lost to history or to the history of philosophy.
		The focus of Blom's book is on Descartes and on those aspects of his correspondence that reveal something of his views on moral philosophy and psychology.
