I don’t see the comment here anymore but someone asked how she’s related to Maria Feodorovna. The comment had confused Maria Feodorovna wife of Paul with Maria Feodorovna wife of Alexander iii. So I checked and broke it down like this. Maria Ludovica Lobkowicz Married: Anselm Franz 2nd prince Von Thurn und Taxis Their daughter: Princess Marie Auguste Von Thurn und Taxis Married: Charles Alexander duke of Wurtemberg Their son: Frederick Eugene Duke of Wurtemberg Married: Frederike Sophia Dorothea of Brandenburg - Schweidt (niece of Frederick the Great) And it’s their daughter, Sophie Dorothea, that married Emperor Paul I of Russia and became Empress Marie Feodorovna.
Woah! What an incredibly well-researched and enjoyable video! I have never heard of Eleonora before, but that was one hell of a story. It's almost criminal how little views you got. Subscribed right away, keep up the great work!
Thank you so much - you just made my day! ❤️ Eleonora does have one hell of a story and I wish more people knew about her. There are SO MANY interesting threads to follow in her story and in the Schwarzenberg family tree. I'll probably do more on them in the future - stay tuned! :)
Thank you so much! I don't know why, but I'm always drawn to the stories that have, like, little or no easily accessible information about them. Go figure! But I'm so glad there are people like you to enjoy these stories with me. ❤️
ahhhh that was AWESOME! I loves ya! Thanks for the great and well-researched (ok, *very* well-researched!) run-down on this unfortunate, yet courageous, lady. You rock! (and so did Eleanora!)
Hello, I'm Czech and honestly, most of your pronuciation is surprisingly good 👌🏻The part about her being a vampire is an obvious nonsense. There were several such "vampire" graves discovered by archeologists in Czech Republic in the past, notably in Čelákovice near Prague, but those were never aristocrats and let's be real - what kind of a catholic would bury a freaking vampire in a church? Exactly. That being said, I would say that even this vampire tale has a silver lining - it brought at least some attention to an interesting, troubled woman and perhaps even helped to bring her real story back to life. Also, an additional tidbit: Karel Schwarzenberg was actually a leader of one of local political parties just until few years ago.
Thank you so much - you just made my day! A bit of studying and prep work for those pronunciations paid off...time well spent. Yeah, the vampire thing is ridiculous, especially with regard to Eleonora. I mean, if having a book about vampires in your library and a painting on your wall that features something supernatural counts as evidence that you're a vampire, I guess I'd be one, too. And the church burial thing...yes, what you said, exactly! Thanks for the tidbit about Karel Schwarzenberg! Maybe I'll do a post on other interesting Schwarzenbergs. There are plenty more to talk about, and you don't see many English-language writers covering them. I'm hooked, frankly. :)
Thank you so much! I'm so glad they sucked you in, LOL. That's what happens to me when I start one of these research rabbit holes. Months later, I emerge and say, "Okay, catch me up on whatever happened!" 😜
When I started listening to this I searched the vampire doco on youtube then some 30 mins later I deleted it from my 'watch later'. I trust you Great vid, great channel by the way ❤✌
@@TheGirlintheTiara ok you got me. After commenting this I did go back and spend all of 2 mins watching it skipping through parts. Even that sensationalized style of history documentary (History channel damn you) annoys me. History is already scandalous enough why do they have to use that contrived style? Anyway...again I'm loving your channel. Scandal, pretty things, history and important women? This combination can be hard to come by ❤✌
@@mdstanton1813 I totally agree! I feel like if they have to sensationalize a show that much, there's something wrong with the story. But that comes from my background as a writer. I'm with you - there's enough scandal already without inventing it. That's what I'm here to uncover. :)
Enjoying so many stories touching my homeland, Czech Republic, Bohemia, and Austro-Hungarian empire. The families mentioned are the most famous in that region's history. I know these cities, castles, and churches, having visited them as a child or a young adult.
So glad you liked it - you just brought a big smile to my face! I love me some vamps, too...that's what sucked me in at first. Who doesn't need a good vamp story every now and then? Even when there are no actual vamps... ;)
I have been binge watching your videos and Love them! Of course I subscribed. There is not much history about all these magnificent women and all these stories and all the freaking drama! Lol! Thank you so much! Keep them coming and I know that you will eventually have many more subscribers! I am definitely posting this channel on Facebook, if that’s ok.
Thank you so much! You just made my day. Yes, please, do share any of these videos on Facebook - the more, the merrier. I wish more people knew these wonderful stories! For whatever reason, only the really obscure ones pique my interest. Before I know it, I'm obsessed and ordering books from all over the world and trying to piece things together no one else has written about. There are definitely more on the way - stay tuned! :)
I am a massive history buff...and a teacher. I wish that it was acceptable for my students to listen to these! I do not want you to change your dialogue because I personally love the curse words and true thoughts and feelings
I love your stories, and admire your excellent research which is really in depth, and listening to your narration. Your voice is perfect for narration, gentle and very clear pronunciation and diction. Thank you so much for your postings. 👏👏👏👏👍😊
Funny how when these women are safe, comfortable, healthy, and stress free, they can start popping out babies! You'd think people of that time would have figured that out at some point...
I want to listen to this but I can’t. The volume of the music background music competes with the narration too much. I’m straining to make out what is being said. Probably would have been an interesting listen. Too bad.
Absolutely love your videos! Just a quick note on 44:31min about the translation of "Wolfsmilch" to "milkweed"(?!) German in my first language and they actually do talk about "wolves milk" in the text :)
51:07 You mentioned Princess Augusta Carolina Frederika Louisa of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel. Please do a video about her! Pretty please! Liked and subscribed.
@@absolutelyalice1754 Make it a long one. Do so in her honour. True, her life was a short one but she was incredibly well-connected and her death mysterious.
There will definitely be a video about Augusta! I'm actually attempting to write a book about her, too, but as you can guess, it's slow going finding sources, transcribing letters in 18th century French, ordering books, translating from Russian, and what have you. There's next to nothing about her in English, which I hope to fix. When I get that wrapped up, I'll do several videos - a loooooong one for superfans, and a shorter one for people who aren't obsessed with her yet, like I am. :)
@@TheGirlintheTiara I realise you have your work cut out for you. I must say I am a great admirerer of yours. You have a knack of bringing history to our days, managing to avoid many mistakes the Americans usually make. No, Im not here to make a mockery of the Americans, or as you guys would say - to dis you. You people are incredibly hard workind and thorough, sometimes you just show how far apart we have drifted culturally. More power to people like you who seek unity between our cultures and our common roots! I say this as a European.
As an old history major, w/long special interest in Central/East Europe (where I now live), I very much enjoy your historical RUclips rambles. I only have 1 suggestion as you move forward w/you admirable work. You have a lovely voice and though I understand your need tro use modern language to snare the "young," could you please refrain from 4-letter words. Aside from not suiting your subjects, it's jarring to hear that beautiful voice utter such vocabulary while recounting such fascinating historical revelations. Respectfully, please consider my request.
Thank you for the feedback - I'll take that into consideration! But to explain about the swearing, to me, swear words are just that...words. Words change in meaning over time. To the Victorians, the word "bloody" was a swear word. It isn't anymore. Yes, I use swear words that I wouldn't say to my grandmother. But she's not who I'm talking to here. For a long time, history was something framed by other people - whoever wrote textbooks, or whoever designed curriculum and chose what books would be published. In school, we're always being told what to say, how to say it, and what's okay to talk about. Part of my project is getting past that to talk about the women and the stories no one talks about. Some of my sources swear - like Eleonora's dad, Ferdinand. He swore in one of the quotes I read in this video. Plenty of other royal figures swore in their correspondence and in notes to their ministers - Edward I of England, Wilhelm II of Germany, and Ferdinand of Bulgaria spring to mind. Swearing has all the meaning and validity one gives it - that might be everything or nothing. I realize not everyone feels this way, which is why I didn't swear in the most recent video (Louise of Belgium).
Great research, v interesting and I love your enthusiasm for your subject. I am a middle-aged bore, but may I suggest fewer swear words? The f word is like the n word to some of us.
Wonderful delivery. Dissappointing lack of swearing however..... as an old bore I insist on taking my history with copious amounts of swearwords of the most filthy sort. After all thats how they lived......these princesses were not museum pieces.
I loved this history, but it’s presentation leaves a lot to be desired. I hope you remake this and turn down the music and the unnecessary chatter. I am a big fan, your voice is magnificent, and I do love the channel. ❤
The Smithsonian has put out an in-depth documentary about her. Pretty creepy stuff. The stuff of Dracula, vampires, Frankenstein and gypsies. Oh wait !! Did I hear the sound of wolves howling in the night? 🥵🥶😰😱👿🦷💋
It looks like you might have few enough subscribers to still read all new comments and I don't want to be complaining about excellent research but if you could change that "tiny" part, would you be interested in some German pronunciations? m.dict.cc/englisch-deutsch/royal.html has plenty good ones, I might take longer to reply/contact but am available. Ps. I'd love a video on Jenny Marx ne von Westphalen
Hi! So nice to meet you (virtually). What an amazing lineage. I'd spend all my time studying the family history if I had a Schwarzenberg in my family tree. 💜
For the tumor and the sides of a child’s head...( yes it was a cancer) If you actually read the Dracula book it has something to say about vampire ladies eating children. But also if you look into folktale mythology of years before mid evil times you’ll see that a lot of female ghost or evil goddesses which ever have a thing against children because their own children were taken from them or killed against their well I had a better life before they died and became ghost. All in all history has a thing for painting women to be awful weather as a scary tail or in real life. Fun facts. As for that very annoying supposable quack hack documentary. You know you’re bored when you make something like this into some kind of documentary series fanfiction. Over historical figures but this is not the first time so yeah. But hey go ahead try to Villainize a kick ass woman that despite how suppressive the men around her. she still outlive them and manage things rather well. And remember in those days people were very ignorant to Mortician facts...u get the idea. Like how people still thought that your hair and nails still grew a little bit after you were dead. Well the real fact is that your body shrivels up after your ☠️ ; making it look like your nails n hair grow . But really you’re just a dead raisin. Keep learning love learning.
Those are good points! The "growing" hair and nails really freaked people out during the 18th century vampire panic. And you're absolutely right - it was an automatic response to paint women as dangerous when they did something the men in their lives didn't like. Ugh! That's why I'm glad to meet people here who love history and learning and can help shed light on these women's stories. ❤️
off you go then. You wont be missed. Most of the great ladies in history swore like troopers. Elizabeth 1st for example. Catherine the Great for another.
@@fiachramaccana280 Well, I had happily left but when this reply appeared in my email box I felt it needed a reply. Great ladies also owned serfs and painted their faces with white lead. Does that mean we should emulate their bad behavior? I think not, but then perhaps you disagree. I prefer to listen to folks who have no need to use vulgarity in their telling of stories as they have a large enough vocabulary to cover all needs. There are plenty of those out there. I won't miss you either.
@@carolinarkasas26 swearing in moderation is not vulgar. On the contrary it shows accomplishment and polish. And to compare it to serfdom is both highly insulting and most absurd. Indeed it shows a want of understanding typical of those who have never suffered in life. And thusly consider the suffering of others in serfdom a mere rhetorical device to be use to garnish or butress a bad argument. For shame for shame.
@@fiachramaccana280 This answer, just wow... vulgarity seen as accomplishment and polish. As to comparing, that is not what I was doing. You find someone who owned serfs as a "great lady". I find it to be detestable. So shame on you. I was merely using that and lead face paint as examples of what these "great ladies" did. You have no idea of what I personally have suffered. You merely need to find a recrimination because you enjoy vulgar language. But your answer does tell me you apparently do believe in emulating bad behavior. You find it to be an accomplishment.
@@carolinarkasas26 on the contrary. I detest serfdom as much as you enjoy brandishing it as rhetorical device for entertainment purposes. I also detest ostentatious piety. A virtuous person who dislikes swearing but observes humility would have simply quietly withdrawn from the site without comment. But not you.. You brandished the moral high ground like a two handed axe. True virtue is earned and is not a birthright Madame. Humility is its calling card. I care nothing for great ladies. although I find them interesting to read about. But I cant stand hypocrisy dressed up as false piety.
Your engaging voice, articulation and content are incongruous with your occasional colloquialism. Further elevate " the masses," by taking a detour from, "scumbag," " dick," "shit," The English language has a plethora of better put downs, then these light weights. This video pales in comparison to your others.

I find it to be detestable. So shame on you. I was merely using that and lead face paint as examples of what these "great ladies" did. You have no idea of what I personally have suffered. You merely need to find a recrimination because you enjoy vulgar language. But your answer does tell me you apparently do believe in emulating bad behavior. You find it to be an accomplishment.
@@carolinarkasas26 on the contrary. I detest serfdom as much as you enjoy brandishing it as rhetorical device for entertainment purposes. I also detest ostentatious piety. A virtuous person who dislikes swearing but observes humility would have simply quietly withdrawn from the site without comment. But not you..
You brandished the moral high ground like a two handed axe. True virtue is earned and is not a birthright Madame. Humility is its calling card.
I care nothing for great ladies. although I find them interesting to read about.
But I cant stand hypocrisy dressed up as false piety.
Don’t ruin it with the cussing.
Your engaging voice, articulation and content are incongruous with your occasional colloquialism.
Further elevate " the
masses," by taking a detour from, "scumbag," " dick,"
"shit," The English language has a plethora of better put downs, then these light weights. This video pales in comparison to your others.
