Description

Explore the complex legacy of one of Europe's most famous female figures with Sissi's World: The Empress Elisabeth in Memory and Myth. This volume from the New Directions in German Studies series provides a transdisciplinary look at the life and reputation of the Bavarian duchess who became the longest-serving Austrian empress. Rather than a standard biography, this work investigates how the myths and legends surrounding Empress Elisabeth have been built through literature, art, film, and various other media. It examines why the story of the Queen of Hungary remains so captivating to modern audiences despite the many misunderstandings of her actual life. From her birth in 1837 to her death in 1898, this book tracks the cultural foundations that allow her image to persist. It is an essential resource for those interested in European cultural history and the way historical figures are represented across different artistic platforms.
