Excerpt from Elizabeth, Empress of Austria: A Memoir Hen I undertook to write a memoir of the late Empress of Austria, I was fully aware of the great difficulties I should encounter, especially as the material I had collected from various quarters was enormous, and I felt it to be my duty to sift it thoroughly and to select only such parts as I could myself believe to be authentic. I have personally had the happiness of meeting the illustrious lady who is the subject of my sketch; I have seen her on many occasions and followed with interest the vicissitudes of her life for the last thirty years; I have often had occasion to write about her, and have also had the privilege of knowing some of those who were in her entourage, and who, from time to time, have given me news, anecdotes, and reminiscences of the woman they loved with all their heart and soul. I am enabled to give some photographs from life. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Sissi's World offers a transdisciplinary approach to the study of the Habsburg Empress Elisabeth of Austria. It investigates the myths, legends, and representations across literature, art, film, and other media of one of the most popular, revered, and misunderstood female figures in European cultural history. Sissi's World explores the cultural foundations for the endurance of the Sissi legends and the continuing fascination with the beautiful empress: a Bavarian duchess born in 1837, the longest-serving Austrian empress, and the queen of Hungary who died in 1898 at the hands of a crazed anarchist. Despite the continuing fascination with “the beloved Sissi," the Habsburg empress, her impact, and legacy have received scant attention from scholars. This collection will go beyond the popular biographical accounts, recountings of her mythic beauty, and scattered studies of her well-known eccentricities to offer transdisciplinary cultural perspectives across art, film, fashion, history, literature, and media.
