Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Francis Joseph and His Times This book needs no prefatory remarks. I am very desirous, however, to acknowledge the unstinted use I have made in it of Doctor Heinrich Friedjung's admirable narrative of the Austro-Prussian struggle for supremacy in Grermany, and his, as yet incomplete, work on the vicissitudes of Austria during the eventful period of 1848-60. As regards the illustrations which appear in the volume, I owe special thanks to Count Albert Mensdorff Pouilly Dietrichstein for a portrait of the Empress Elizabeth, taken shortly after her marriage, as well as for that of his ancestress Countess Therese Dietrichstein. To Count Harrach and his sister-in-law. Countess Alfred Harrach, I am much indebted for an unpublished photograph of the Empresss portrait, painted by Horowitz, under the Emperors direction, for the late Mistress of the Robes, Countess Harrach. I have to thank Herr Max Herzig for permission to copy some illustrations from the sumptuous work entitled Das Buch vom Kaiser, which was brought out by him in the Jubilee year, 1898. For a few details of the Emperor Francis Josephs daily habits and life, I also had recourse to the same highly interesting publication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1909 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER III FRANCIS II. AUSTERLITZ AND WAGRAM 1801-1809 ALTHOUGH Francis II. is not by any means to be reckoned among faineant sovereigns, he left so much latitude to his chief counsellors that the first and more eventful part of his long reign may conveniently be divided into periods marked by the Prime Ministers to whom he successively entrusted the affairs of his Empire. Count Louis Cobenzl, who now replaced Thugut, was an experienced diplomatist of good old family in Carniola, and in his early days had graduated at the then renowned University of Strasburg, where Talleyrand was one of his fellow-students. He was a protege of Prince Kaunitz, and had held for twenty years the important Embassy at St. Petersburg, where he was in the good graces of the Empress Catherine. He cannot have owed the distinction with which he was treated by that sovereign to the good looks that were so often a passport to her favor, for Hormayr draws a positively repulsive portrait of him. His head, says that gossiping historian, was in shape like that of a cat, his hair whitey-brown, and his complexion of a sickly, pallid hue. He was short and obese, or, as Hormayr prefers to call it, bloated and flabby. Small eyes with a squint in them complete the seductive picture. In spite of these serious drawbacks, he must have been endowed with some special charm; "his ugliness," we are told, "being interesting, and even graceful!" He seems at any rate to have been an accomplished courtier, and was before long admitted to the small and select coterie of the Hermitage, which helped to beguile the Empress's declining years. Cobenzl, whom Meneval in his Memoirs describes as being so Frenchified "qu'il n'avait d'AUemand que le nom" had a pretty turn for vers de societe, ...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Emperor Francis Joseph and His Times Cadono le Citta, Cadono i regni, E l' uomo, che de cader Par che si sdegni... The great and powerful State whose citizens we once were has ceased to exist. With it vanished the venerable House which had reigned over it for six and a half centuries. Memories alone are left to us. They rise from the grave like those of our dead, and first among them the memory of him who from his post of supreme authority gave the vanished epoch its particular character for two generations - Francis Joseph I., Emperor of Austria and Apostolic King of Hungary. Now is the time, among the unceasing difficulties and the endless trials of our daily life, that he seems to draw nearer to us, perhaps because Death, which reveals all things, is lifting the veil from him too, or because he comes before us as one of the most tragic figures of the old Austria. He ascended the throne of his fathers when the confusion of the stormy years 1848 and 1849 was at its height, and he bade this earth farewell when the far more momentous events of the greatest and most fateful struggle that the world has ever seen kept us in breathless suspense. Between those two periods lie nearly seventy years, years filled with tragedies for the dynasty, political dissensions of every kind which kept the nations and countries of the Empire in a state of continuous convulsion and unsuccessful wars.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Court in Vienna under Emperor Francis Joseph was not only Europe's most illustrious and refined, it was also a huge economic enterprise, serving as both home and workplace for just under 2,000 people. The author reveals multitudinous facets of Emperor Francis Joseph's court and displays them in highly entertaining fashion, the court truly comes alive again. She takes the reader through a typical day in the life of the emperor, from his early morning toilette to the evening ceremonies; she tells tales of glittering ceremonies, receptions and audiences; she provides insights into the private and the family life of the emperor.
