A quotation from Twain

The question as to whether there is such a thing as divine right of kings is not settled in this book. It was found too difficult. That the executive head of a nation should be a person of lofty character and extraordinary ability, was manifest and indisputable; that none but the Deity could select that head unerringly, was also manifest and indisputable; that the Deity ought to make that selection, then, was likewise manifest and indisputable; consequently, that He does make it, as claimed, was an unavoidable deduction. I mean, until the author of this book encountered the Pompadour, and Lady Castlemaine, and some other executive heads of that kind; these were found so difficult to work into the scheme, that it was judged better to take the other tack in this book (which must be issued this fall), and then go into training and settle the question in another book. It is, of course, a thing which ought to be settled, and I am not going to have anything particular to do next winter anyway.

Mark Twain (1835-1910) American writer [pseud. of Samuel Clemens]
Novel (1889), A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court, Preface

Having recently read two novels with nobles in them, I looked some stuff up.

Prince → Princess, Duke → Duchess, Viscount → Viscountess, Marquess → Marchioness, Baron → Baroness, Earl → Countess.

"Marchioness" is a bit iffy ("Marquess" should have been the female form, with the male shortened to "Marque" or "Marquer"), but someone really messed up with "Countess" being the female equivalent of "Earl".   #nobility

Did you know Epstein's name & ancestors come from a town in #Germany?

It's even called Eppstein!

They even had "nobles" - the Lords of Eppstein.

Wonder if they were also pedos? But I guess back then it was a common thing for nobles to be...
