Historical Characters, Including Frederick the Great, Discussion Post 42

[cahn]

Last post, we had (among other things) Danish kings and their favorites; Louis XIV and Philippe d'Orléans; reviews of a very shippy book about Katte, a bad Jacobite novel, and a great book about clothing; a fic about Émilie du Châtelet and Voltaire; and a review of a set of entertaining Youtube history videos about Frederick the Great.

That's very interesting about the Grimms, thank you!

I mean, this is Lehndorff, if he either likes someone or finds them interesting or is upset about them, you get either ravings or rantings or detailed pen portraits or both... but here, not a word about what he thinks of famous Dr. Zimmermann from Hannover. Hmmmmm.

Heeee! This is why Lehndorff is so great :D

Also: what is it with Fritz first meeting people lying in bed?

HA!
