A princess born into one of the most prominent Protestant dynasties of the age, Elisabeth was one of the great female intellectuals of seventeenth-century Europe. This book examines her life and thought. It is the story of an exiled princess, a grief-stricken woman whose family was beset by tragedy and whose life was marked by poverty, depression, and chronic illness. It is also the story of how that same woman's strength of character, unswerving faith, and extraordinary mind saw her emerge as one of the most renowned scholars of the age. It is the story of how one woman navigated the tumultuous waters of seventeenth-century politics, religion, and scholarship, fought for her family's ancestral rights, and helped established one of the first networks of female scholars in Western Europe. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDraw\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: The Angry Star\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: A Woman and a Scholar\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Encountering Descartes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Diseases of the Soul\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Virtue and the Passions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 6: The Prince\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Return of the Palatinate\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 8: The Abbess of Herford\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48867332030807,"sku":"9781498568906","price":33.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/princess-elisabeth-of-bohemia-9781498568906","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
