La Force
hello,

i am french from a tiny village in dordogne/périgord named : LA FORCE

i am very keen in knowing more about mademoiselle Charlotte rose de caumont-La Force who once had a family based in a renaissance castle in my village since her grand father was a good friend of henry the fourth king of France and maréchal de france under louis the thirteenth

a duke of la force was even académicien at Académie française beginning of twentieth century

as a chairman of the following society "association de recherches archéologiques et historiques du pays de la Force "(ARAH) i would like to prepare a conference about her for my members

have you some information about her fairy tales ( i am aware of rapunzel of course)

i thank you in advance for any material provided

From a quick look on my shelf I see that Jack Zipes
book "Beauties, Beasts, and Enchantment" 1989 has a short bio of La Force and a printing of "The Good Woman," her "most serious fairy tale." (I have a friend who has a summer farm house just south of Castillion - near you??)

If you have a FAX machine number, I can fax you a copy of the biography of Charlotte-Rose Caumont de La Force from the book, BEAUTIES, BEASTS, AND ENCHANTMENTS by Jack Zipes. (In case you don't have access to the book.) My email is nschreiber@pkfamily.nospam.com.
