Talk:Jeanne de Valois-Saint-Rémy

question

How can you write that :"She died before the Revolution took place" when the revolution started in 1789 and she died in 1792? It makes no sense.

I fixed this. She died in 1791, not 1792, like the article said (but it was in the right category of 1791 deaths). Linnell 23:54, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

While anyone can edit a wikipedia article, I want to defer to the original author before I make some additions; I'm reading a book by Lesley Blanch called The Sabres of Paradise, about the Russian wars against Shamyl the Avar. Blanch gives some backgrounds on the people involved, including Russian royalty. In chapter 9, page 82, she mentions the involvement of a Countess de la Motte with women of the Russian royal circle, and with Emperor Alexander (who was supposedly very taken with her). Blanch says this woman fled France after l' affaire du collier for Russia, and took a new identity as Madame Guacher. Blanch claims that upon her death, The Emperor sent a Cossack courier to the Crimea (where she was living in semi-exile) to retrieve what was supposedly her casket. This woman, as Blanch writes, seems very exotic and interesting, and if it's the same person, her time in Russia (and her new identity) should be included in the article. One problem however; Blanch puts her death in 1823...I belive the article authoer has a different date. Thoughts? --DesScorp 02:24, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Its seems this page relies far too heavily on the very symathetic movie...how can we leave out the very important detail of her being Rohan's mistress (omitted in the film)? (Nadiastheme 22:29, 2 June 2007 (UTC)) Articles should never be based upon Hollywood-made films.It's an established fact of history that Jeanne was Rohan's mistress;how else could she have involved him in the plot?Hollywood often ignores pertinate details when making " historical" films such as "Braveheart" and "Mary,Queen of Scots".Wikipedia should only mention a film based upon a particular person as a footnote and nothing else.jeanne (talk) 07:44, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Guay/Nicole?

In one place it is said that the prostitute's name is Guay d'Oliva, and Nicole d'Oliva in another. Which is correct? 瀬人様 12:11, 23 July 2007 (UTC)Nicole d'Oliva is the correct name.can be verified in every biography on Marie Antoinette.jeanne (talk) 14:07, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
