Maria Aurora Grafin von Konigsmarck (1662-1728) war schon, gebildet, geistreich und kunstlerisch tatig. Sie wurde umschwarmt und verehrt. Binnen funf Jahren wurde sie nacheinander die Matresse des sachsischen Kurfursten und spateren polnischen Konigs August des Starken, die Mutter des spateren franzosischen Marschalls Moritz von Sachsen und die Propstin des weltlichen Damenstifts Quedlinburg, wo sie 1728 starb. Bis zu ihrem Lebensende war sie in europaische Netzwerke eingebunden. Hier prasentieren international ausgewiesene Wissenschaftler Beitrage zur schwedischen Grafenfamilie Konigsmarck und zur Biographie der Maria von Konigsmarck. Dabei stehen ‘Das Kunstschaffen adeliger Frauen’ sowie ‘Die hofische Gesellschaft’ im Vordergrund. Ziel des Buches ist es, frei von jeglicher, in uber 300 Jahren entstandener Legendenbildung eine realistische und wissenschaftlich fundierte Annaherung an die Personlichkeit der schwedischen Grafin zu erreichen, die exemplarisch fur das adelige Frauenleben zur Zeit des Barock und der Fruhen Neuzeit steht.
