MAINE, ANNE LOUISE BENEDICTE DE BOURBON

This article appears in Volume V17, Page 432 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: LUP-MAL
MAINE, ANNE LOUISE BENEDICTE DE BOURBON , DucHESSE DU (16761753), daughter of Henri Jules de Bourbon, prince de
Conde
  and
Anne
  of Bavaria, was born on the 8th of November 1676. On the 19th of
March
  1692 she married Louis Auguste de Bourbon, duc du
Maine
 , son of Louis XIV. and Mme de Montespan. The duchesse du
Maine
  held a little
court
  at Sceaux, where she gave brilliant entertainments and immersed herself in political intrigues. Displeased with the action of the regent Orleans in degrading the illegitimate children of Louis XIV. from their precedence above the peers of France, she induced her
husband
  to join in the Cellamare conspiracy for the transference of the regency to the king of Spain. The
plot
 , however, was discovered, and she was imprisoned in 1719. The following year she returned to Sceaux, where she resumed her salon and gathered round her a brilliant company of wits and poets. She died in Paris on the 23rd of January 1753.
See General de Piepape, La Duchesse du Maine (191o).
