Tea, one of the oldest and most consumed beverage in the world in the West losing its mystical connotations typically Oriental, has always been seen as the beverage of mundane and entertainment company. For many years he was strictly an aristocratic pleasure, reserved for the privileged classes, later becoming, not least thanks to colonialism, a drink for everyone.
But what lies behind this popular beverage and intoxicating amber, for which intense aroma and refined at sea were fought wars and revolutions, and undertook endless crops so as to change the economy of entire countries?
Kazuko Okakura, author of a famous book on this magical drink - The Book of Tea - stated that 'the tea has nothing dell'inebriante arrogant individualism of coffee or wine and affection innocence of cocoa, but a subtle taste, especially suited to be idealized '.
That must be why the tea, when he came to the fore in Europe, imported by the Dutch in 1610 (but were two Italians, the Venetian Giovanni Ramusio, and the Jesuit Matteo Ricci in 1559, the first to speak and write of tea in Europe) has always been a source of inspiration for poets and artists, who portrayed him and praised him, and of course to drink it in industrial quantities?

In England, now considered the true home of tea, the first appearance of the much-vaunted Bevade occurred in 1645, through Holland. In 1658 a short article in the british newspaper Mercurius Politicus performing the first advertisement of tea, informing readers that the competent authorities of China had approved a new drink, called by the Chinese Teha , and that you could find a place in the City : the Coffee House 'Sultaness Head' .
Someone said 'Who drank coffee England understand why the British are avid tea drinkers' . However, it is a fact that the cafes in the eighteenth century became less and less places for the distribution of coffee and more temples dedicated to the tasting of tea, for men only, where, between a cup and the other ideas were discussed, and business and criticizing the government, to the point of pushing the then King Charles II to issue a decree to close the Coffee House, for fear of sedition. protests, however, were so vibrant to cancel the order in favor of a law, less restrictive, limiting the consumption of tea only to the privileged classes: 'pleasure taken from this drink may adversely affect workers' was the warning.
Tea, for those lucky few, then, who could afford it, we drank almost always accompanied with milk, or even with two beaten egg yolks, custom odd, considering that it was not in the East ever used. But the British, after all, no matter the ancient traditions that have always accompanied the ritual of tea, given by his fathers oriental medicinal drink and contemplative.
addition to the nobles, many intellectuals were tea drinkers: broke out a true fashion, wearing the most to seek new sensations and lighting in amber brew. The twist in
cosume of tea, however, there was In 1717 Thomas Twining (this name sound familiar?) decided to expand his business and bought a room on the side of a very busy Coffee House, opening a store that sold bulk coffee and tea. The restaurant, which still exists, was open to all, including women, and that was his fortune.
Soon women became avid tea drinkers, and, according to tradition, it was a woman (could not be otherwise!), The Duchess of Bedfort, who invented the fashion of ' Afternoon Tea: Afternoon tea sir.
In Victorian tea ladies had become a unique opportunity to entertain social relations: women began to be visited to drink tea and eat sanwiches, toast and pastries. The lady of the house, and any subsidiary, was responsible for serving tea in a more refined way possible: he had become a veritable rite, of course, not comparable to the meaning that you continue to give in the East, but certainly a certain importance in the times of the bourgeoisie.

Virginia Oldoini favorite drink, the light of Cavour


I am me and I'm proud I do not want anything from the others and for others. I am worth a lot more of them. I recognize that I can not look good given my fiery character, frank and free, which makes me hard and sometimes cruel. So someone hates me, but what I do not care. I do not care to please everyone.


I must confess that, until recently, almost completely ignored the existence of this fascinating and controversial historical figure. But visiting the exhibition in Turin to Vittorio Emanuele II, set up to celebrate the sesquicentennial anniversary of the unification of Italy ( Vittorio Emanuele II. King gentleman) I came across her, or rather, in his fascinating portrait , which looks slyly visitors. At his side, an elegant black velvet dress appartenutole and a marble reproduction of one of his small and slender hands, because it seems that the countess had hands and feet so beautiful that many artists portrayed them separately from the body.



Oldoini But Virginia, in his time, distinguished not only for its unparalleled beauty. It was a woman of incredible intelligence, intelligent, shrewd and unscrupulous, skilled in diplomacy and business, to the point of being 'recruited' by Cavour in the secret diplomacy of the Kingdom of Sardinia, relying on her undeniable charm to influence the politics of the time.
Virginia, called the Grotto, nickname riservatole first by Massimo d'Azeglio, was born in Florence on March 23, 1837, where the traditional seven names were imposed, as was the custom in the aristocracy: Virginia, Elizabeth, Louise, Charles, Antoinette, Teresa, Mary. His parents, first cousins, had established their home in La Spezia, and it is here that Virginia grew up in a beautiful building near the seashore, developing a strong attachment to this place, which would be transformed into a feeling of yearning for what he always considered his native village.
beautiful and intelligent as a child in the house was flattered and spoiled by parents that fulfillment in all his whims, an attitude that led her to develop from childhood that lofty view of itself that will enable it to cope without timidity and shame even the most embarrassing.


Virginia, now a young girl, had enlarged the circle of his famous friends, and building Oldoini began to be besieged by young officers attracted by the beautiful and seductive ladyship.
Only seventeen, May 7, 1853, he lost his virginity to the break Ambrogio Doria, accident, considered the morality of the time, his parents forced him to run for cover as soon as possible giving her in marriage to the Earl of Verasis Francesco Castiglione, Following the courtier of Queen Maria Adelaide, fascinated by the incredible charm from the first moment of niches.
They, however, turned out to be just an unsatisfactory marriage and problematic, especially because of the strong rebellious character and personality of the young Virginia: selfish, moody, arrogant, impulsive and stubborn. But also lively, proud and ambitious, could not agree to Niche 'waste' his life in the gray and sad Turin in mid-nineteenth century was the European capital where they were more religiously observed the rules of etiquette, rigid and austere.
1855 was the year for determining the fate of the Countess. Became the mother, but this too did not prevent her maternal desire to make his entry into history.
That was, in fact, a period of great events, the small but ambitious Piedmont, under the careful guidance of Cavour, followed very closely, looking for the opportunity to enter the game of the great powers to achieve his single project. Italy was in fact at that time, a patchwork of small states with limited sovereignty under the auspices of Austria, and Piedmont aspired to lead to confusion of the independence movement that had spread throughout the peninsula.
Cavour was convinced that he could achieve his ambitions only by a powerful ally, and the only country which, at that particular moment in history, could come to the aid of the Piedmont was the France of Napoleon III.


Ensure the protection of the Emperor was therefore the primary objective of the great Piedmontese, and here comes in the Countess of Castiglione.
Cavour's strategy was simple (albeit low-level): to find a lady, beautiful, seductive and uninhibited, but most intelligent, able to seduce the emperor and political maneuvering to plead the Franco-Piedmontese alliance.
Grotto, his second cousin, was recruited as secret diplomacy in the Piedmont.
'Try to succeed, my dear cousin, with the means that will seem more appropriate, but failed' , were the words with which he dismissed the Cavour, before entrusting the protection of Costantino Nigra, Ambassador Italian in France.
Arriving in Paris with her husband and son, Virginia immediately gave way to talk about himself for the incredible beauty and charm, and the ruthlessness of his set, considered fashion.



meeting with Napoleon III took place January 10, 1856, at a party hosted by Princess Mathilde Bonaparte, niche and not had to struggle much to get into the good graces of the emperor, as only a week later writes in his diary: 'Round at the Tuileries. The Lord Chamberlain has been commissioned by the emperor to put my name on the list of invitations normal and that the invitations reserved. '
From this time the climb Niche at the heart of Napoleon III is unstoppable. The only one to suffer the consequences is the husband Francis, defined by the same Virginia 'poor mouth'.
After two months of life in Paris the Count of Castiglione could not help but notice how his wife escaped. He bled to pay the bills, pandering to his whims expensive, and trying to soothe her by reminding the presence of his son George, but it was useless. Niche continued his reckless life, with or without her consent, to the point that, after several threats of divorce, the count returned to Italy bringing with them the little George, and leaving his wife free field for his operations.



The turning point in the 'patriotic mission' of the countess was a July evening in 1856 in Saint-Cloud, in the summer residence of the emperor.
Virginia, in part because of its disturbing beauty, partly because of the attitude of haughty and aloof, was not at all liking the Empress and the other ladies. So it was that one day, while visiting the Roman ruins of Pierrefond, the Countess of Castiglione slipped from a stone, dislocated wrist, with neither moved a finger to help her.
The incident, however, had the merit of bringing it closer to the emperor, that the evening he went to his room to see her.
'It went to console the sick poor' malicious comments the other ladies.
So, that night was the beginning of their report, which has indisputably proven, although there is no evidence about the political action that would have played Virginia Oldoini attending the alcove of the emperor, as all their correspondence has mysteriously disappeared by intelligence officers who, on the death of the countess, went into action to purge its records of any incriminating documents to the House of Savoy.
However, it is implausible to believe that a woman so smart and intelligent has not caught on the fly, albeit with questionable means, the opportunity that presented itself to influence politically.
That night, to seduce the emperor, the countess wore what became known as 'nightgown Compiègne,' a lightweight garment like a cloud of silk transparent green water.
Virginia he wrote in his will that he wanted 'to be buried with her nightgown of Compiegne,' because he had started with that changed the history of Italy.
Unfortunately for her, her heirs proved reluctant to fulfill his desires, putting all of its assets at auction, including the famous night-gown, which is now Museum of Santena Cavour.
'Every woman has a duty to be beautiful, not for himself but for others. For himself, instead, must be ambitious, smart and tough ' was the motto of Virginia.
And, referring to the nightgown she wore in the first meeting with Napoleon III, he wrote:
'this should be the flag of Italy' .
Just to disprove the theory that to 'make Italy' were only men.

Marie Antoinette and Fersen


Today we celebrate love, and, although I'm not a great admirer of the day of St. Valentino, I thought I'd dedicate a post to a large love story, the one between the Queen of France Marie Antoinette and the handsome Swedish count Axel von Fersen, Hans.
Contrary to popular belief, their was not a simple affair made of stolen moments, but a true love story based on a deep relationship that accompanied them throughout their lives.
There is no clear evidence that they were lovers in every respect, but it certainly was that both give a special importance in this romantic relationship, which never really allowed him to not be divided, despite the distance that separated them very often.


Their first meeting occurred on the night of January 30, 1774, at a masked ball.
The young Fersen, who at that time was completing his education as a gentleman taking a Grand Tour (very fashionable at the time) with the major European capitals, had just arrived in Paris.

Born September 4, 1755 she was two months older than Marie Antoinette, was the son of a noblewoman and the first sergeant of the Swedish Army, 'the richest man in Sweden', was fluent in five languages, and it seems was a man of extraordinary beauty: tall and slender, had deep blue eyes topped by thick dark eyebrows, and always vaguely melancholy air, which induced the Duke of Lévis to compare it to a hero of romance, but, because of the extraordinary good looks, he earned the nickname 'The picture' , the picture, the Duchess of Denvoshire, Georgiana, and that of 'Apollo' by Leonard, the Queen's hairdresser. The Fersen
January 30, 1774 went to the masquerade ball held at a theater in Paris, arriving there at one o'clock at night. Among the large crowd found himself talking at length with a charming lady from her face uncovered, without having the slightest suspicion that it was the Dauphin of France Marie Antoinette, as noted in his private journal: 'The dolphin spoke to me a long time without I knew who it was, when it was recognized all the gathered around and she retired to a stage three in the morning, I left the dance '.



This first brief meeting and then we can not know what impression they had respect for each other Marie Antoinette and Fersen, but certainly, at least in the Queen must have been significant given that four years later, acknowledging the crowd at Versailles that was presented, she will greet with enthusiasm and joy.
record of that meeting Fersen: 'The Queen, who is charming, when he saw me he said: Ah, it's an old acquaintance! The other members of royal family I do not say a word. '
Later, in a letter to his father, returns to talk about her: 'It's the most beautiful and most delicious princess who knows!'
In 1778, therefore, they feel the sympathy and interest for each other is significant and is explored in the course of various parties, despite their months in which Marie Antoinette was still taking her first pregnancy, which is the true focus of his thoughts.
It was not until 1780 that we can talk of what will become the initial phase of their relationship, but will begin with a separation. It 'just that, in fact, the year in which the handsome Swedish count takes leave from France and his Queen to move overseas to fight the French troops for independence in the New World.
During this time the link between Fersen and the queen is strong, and although it involves no affair, began to raise more than a suspicion among the members of the court, as you can guess from the words of the Swedish 'I confess I can not believe it ... I saw the signs too unmistakable to doubt '. He expressed himself as writing to his sovereign, adding that the benign behavior of Marie Antoinette against Fersen gave no room for doubt. This attitude seems Fersen confirm the same in a letter to his father 'It's a beautiful princess. Has always treated me with great kindness, since the Baron spoke, I look for even more. Almost always walks with me to the dance and theater. Her kindness has aroused the jealousy of the younger courtiers, who can not understand why a foreigner is treated better than them '.
From these words it is easy to deduce that Fersen's departure can be attributed, in addition to the desire to bring prestige to his military career, also a subtle need to get away from Versailles and the hornet's nest of rumors that the attendance of the Queen and the Count is causing beautiful.
We do not know what goes through the mind of Fersen the sake of this posting, but the Queen is said to have wept when he took his leave. And writing to his mother on the dispatch of French troops is expressed in these terms: 'May God grant them to arrive safely!' .
It's easy to assume who was in his thoughts at that time.



Fersen was far from France for three years, and when we returned at the end of June 1783, the Queen was pregnant again, but a pregnancy that will end with a bad abortion in November.
In recent years, the earl had evaluated several occasions to marry, and it was always marriages of convenience, designed to achieve a good gain, nothing to do with love.
But in 1783 he wrote to his sister, puts an end to all doubt. 'I can not stay with the only person I want, the only one who really loves me, so I do not want to be with anyone.' Referring to his course
Toinette, his 'Josephine', 'Elle'.
Fersen remained in France until Sept. 20, then return in February next year, and it was during this period that historians agree on the beginning of a hypothetical physical relationship between the count and the Queen. Report which, however, thanks in part to the legendary reserve of the count, in part because of the destruction, posthumously after his death, all his correspondence, there is no evidence.




In 1784, Marie Antoinette found herself pregnant again and this time it was theoretically possible to assume that the child could be of Count Fersen, for the first time since the dates coincided. It 'is unlikely to believe in such a case, especially since the King never had to question the paternity of the child, a sign that his sporadic visits to the night wife continued.
Meanwhile, in France the discontent of the people was increasing and the decreasing popularity of the sovereign. We were increasingly spreading obscene libels on his person, together with epithets and insults that accused her of being a spendthrift, silly, without an idea in mind except lust and obscene to the members of his court.
Count Fersen, who returned to France May 10, 1785, did not fail to notice the coolness with which Marie Antoinette was greeted at the entrance to Paris 'Not a single cheer. The total silence '.
years are difficult years of conflict and confrontation that never cease to throw mud on the now unpopular Queen, dragged further down by the scandal of the necklace, the horrible scam hatched against him that had shaken the last glimmer of credibility he enjoyed.
E 'in recent years that the friendship and affection of Count Fersen become more solid and important: he is its support and its fixed point in a world that never ceases to accuse. In recent years, the earl also plays role as an ambassador between France and Sweden, be sure to write long letters and encouraged during periods of absence.


Fersen was its most devoted knight and his valuable political ally.
his soul mate.
And if it is true that the pretty sure the count was not denied female company, having always had many lovers, the only object of his devotion was always and only Marie Antoinette.
'You can not help but praise the Queen, if you understand his desire to do good and the goodness of his heart'.
In 1789, shortly before the riots of October that led to removal of the royal family from Versailles, Fersen had moved near the court, to be with the Queen. He was then among the members of the procession left the palace and moved to the Tuileries, to justify its presence as a particular member of the Queen's private circle. Fersen sold the house and the horses he had bought Versailles and moved to Paris, where he could be closer to 'Elle' and go to visit her.
Contrary to popular opinion, he considered a victim Marie Antoinette. Heroine mistreated, misjudged, sensitive, suffering and full of goodness, and was its most ardent supporter and closest confidant.
was also one of the staunchest proponents of an escape plan that would allow the royal family to flee, and contribute actively with huge sums of money and risking his own life.
Fersen paid five thousand livres for the six-seater sedan with which he had to flee the royal family, even improvising coachman.
was the night of June 19, 1790. Now at first placed , as agreed, the Count had left the company.
do not know what were his feelings at that moment, but is supposed to be the feelings of a man who indulges in an uncertain destiny of the woman he loved, hoping to see you again soon safe and sound.
Unfortunately, the flight of the royal family after the day ended disastrously in Varennes, with the capture of the latter which were promptly brought back to Paris. Since then
Fersen, a refugee in Belgium, Marie Antoinette will review one and only time, returning to Paris in disguise and secretly sneak into the Tuileries.
The count for this extreme act, almost bordering on heroism, could certainly life, because he is banned from Paris. Would be found to meet certain death.
Marie Antoinette tries in every way to stop them: 'It is absolutely impossible for you to come here at this time: it would bring into play our happiness, and if I say so, we must believe me, for I have a burning desire to see you. '
But the count does not collect: 'I live only to serve'.
was on 11 February when Fersen, under cover of darkness, stealthily crept into the Tuileries, and unmindful of the soldiers hate the Parisians against him.
Of this there is evidence that the night they spent together, as shown by two laconic words pinned on the intimate journal of Count:
'remains the' .
was the last time you saw before the guillotine, fierce children of the revolution, demanded the most illustrious and coveted among the heads: that's sweet Toinette.


Shortly before the end of Marie Antoinette commissioned his good friend, the Count de Jarjayes (which inspired the character of the manga heroine Lady Oscar, and the great Alexandre Dumas in his 'The Knight of Maison Rouge') Fersen to deliver a seal with the motto, in Italian, 'All of you guide me' , along with the phrase from Rousseau's Nouvelle Heloise 'Our souls are touched at every point ... The destiny can truly separate us but never divide us.' . Unfortunately, the Count de Jarjayes managed to complete the mission just a few months after the death of the sovereign, which occurred October 16, 1789.
Fersen never recovered from the death of his beloved. He received the news Oct. 20, remaining completely stunned. For the rest of his life was celebrated Oct. 16 as a day of mourning. No woman ever replaced
Marie Antoinette in her heart.

'The one that I lived and because I never ceased to love her, nor could I even for a moment, and I would have sacrificed everything, well I feel at this moment. I loved her so much, so I would have given a thousand lives, is no more. God, it hit me so much? As I deserved your anger? It is no longer alive. My pain is at its peak and I do not know how he can still exist, I do not know how to hold my torment is extreme, that nothing can ever erase: I have always in my mind, and will be only to cry ... because I'm not dead next to her and for her that on June 20? '

Fersen survived seventeen years to the death of his beloved Toinette, until the day in which, wrongly accused of the murder of the heir to the Swedish throne, was chased by the crowd jumped on the chest, breaking through the heart.
death was a tragic and horrible, in which the fate, ironic, mocking, had once again put his paw.
fact, it was June 20.

Candy Blog! Water for Elephants



Yes, I have decided to celebrate my first thirty readers with a Blog Candy!
Three is a number that has always brought me luck, and I would say that recurs quite often in my life, so I decided to celebrate this little goal of mine, still fairly new blog, created by putting away a little thought from me.
Imagining what might please the people that I read, I could not help but think of bookmarks, so they were born Birdcage and Jane , naturally inspired the latter to the great aunt Jane (Austen ), which I know is in the hearts of many of my readers ^ ^
bookmarks are made of laminated paper, are waterproof and quite rigid, so do not run the risk of damaged and wrinkled (corners safe!) and lace I used for decorations , colored ribbons and pendants made of metal.
The quote I mentioned above Jane bookmark is a cult of the beloved aunt 'As far as I'm concerned, if a book is well written, I find it always too short'.
Just to stay in the theme of 'bookish'!
