Suzanne Curchod Necker was one of the most influential women of her
day: hostess to a brilliant literary salon, wife of Jacques Necker,
the politically powerful pre-revolutionary French finance minister,
and mother to the great Romantic writer Germaine de Stael. Madame
Necker occupies a unique position in French social and cultural
history, but, dwarfed by the posthumous legacies of her husband and
daughter, the last biographical study of her was over sixty years
ago. This study breaks new ground by examining the profoundly
corporeal nature of Madame Necker's life - her debilitating,
decades-long psychic and somatic suffering and subsequent premature
death and curious burial."
