About This Book

La monographie reconstitue, à partir d'archives et de mémoires, l'affaire entourant l'assassinat d'une duchesse et le procès qui s'ensuivit, déconstruisant légendes populaires et rumeurs. L'auteur présente la généalogie et le cadre familial, retrace les circonstances sociales et privées conduisant au drame, analyse pièces et correspondances saisies par la justice, et propose une lecture critique des témoignages et hypothèses contemporaines. Le texte combine narration documentaire, reproduction de documents, portraits et estampes pour étayer la démonstration et rendre compte des répercussions judiciaires et publiques de l'affaire.
