Louis XV and me

leave a comment »

Apparently, i am not suppose to reference anything from Wikipedia, but my trust in opensourced information outweighs haughty conventional dissertation etiquette.

In anycase, during my daily procrastination routine, i was looking up french monarchs (after my interest in SusanĀ  Boyle, that led to Les Miserables, that led to French History, that led to historical gossip, that led to Marie Antoinette, that somehow led to her father-in-law).

According to wikipedia, history has been unkind to Louis XV. He was infact very intelligent; however, “his nagging indecision, fueled by his awareness of the complexity of problems ahead, as well as his profound timidity, hidden behind the mask of an imperious king, may account for the poor results achieved during his reign”

This guy sounds exactly like me
