 The self-proclaimed Sun King, Louis XIV ruled over the most glorious and extravagant court in seventeenth-century
Europe. Now, Antonia Fraser goes behind the well-known tales of Louis’s accomplishments and follies, exploring in
riveting detail his intimate relationships with women.The king’s mother, Anne of Austria, had been in a childless
marriage for twenty-two years before she gave birth to Louis XIV. A devout Catholic, she instilled in her son a strong
sense of piety and fought successfully for his right to absolute power. In 1660, Louis married his first cousin,
Marie-Thérèse, in a political arrangement. While unfailingly kind to the official "Queen of Versailles," Louis
sought others to satisfy his romantic and sexual desires. After a flirtation with his sister-in-law, his first important
mistress was Louise de La Vallière, who bore him several children before being replaced by the tempestuous and
brilliant Athénaïs, marquise de Montespan. Later, when Athénaïs’s reputation was tarnished, the king
continued to support her publicly until Athénaïs left court for a life of repentance. Meanwhile her
children’s governess, the intelligent and seemingly puritanical Françoise de Maintenon, had already won the
king’s affections; in a relationship in complete contrast to his physical obsession with Athénaïs, Louis
XIV lived happily with Madame de Maintenon for the rest of his life, very probably marrying her in secret. When his
grandson’s child bride, the enchanting Adelaide of Savoy, came to Versaille she lightened the king’s last
years—until tragedy struck.With consummate skill, Antonia Fraser weaves insights into the nature of
women’s religious lives—as well as such practical matters as contraception—into her magnificent,
sweeping portrait of the king, his court, and his ladies.
