Stephanie Felicite Ducrest de St-Aubin, comtesse de Genlis : Mademoiselle de La Fayette : ou le siecle de Louis XIII
'I send you a new novel of Madame de Genlis' 'Mademoiselle de la Fayette'. I think it will interest and amuse you at the same time. The subject is taken from the reign of Louis XIII and Anne d'Autriche. The colouring of the characters has proved a very happy effort of genius, and, after my taste and my humble judgment, I think it one of the best that she ever wrote, except 'Les Voeux Temeraires'.'
Century: 1800-1849 Reader/Listener/Group: Princess Caroline, Princess of Wales Print: Book

Stéphanie Félicité Ducrest de St-Aubin, comtesse de Genlis : [children's plays]
'For once I must think differently from Mr Edgeworth. I have none of the fears that he has for the fate of "Little Plays for Children". Those of Madame de Genlis have always been extremly [sic] successful, altho' not very good, and "Old Poz" has been most successful, and has been acted by many a happy little party'.
