When it comes to the theo musical, elizabeth is one of the pearls that cannot be ignored, and the song in it, " i belong to myself " , is much more widely known because of the singing in the heart. Elizabeth in the musical, has a better known name -- princess ceci. Throughout her life, she has pursued freedom in the grip of tradition and has written legends in history。
Joseph, ceci, death
The musical begins with the death of princess cece, describing her life in the eyes of an observer (who, in fact, killed her), who has been accompanied by death in the image of an admirer, and who has taken her attitude from resistance to slow acceptance, which is her depression and desire to die. Let us recall today the legendary life of the princess。
I. The life of princess ceci
Princess cissy was born on 24 december 1837 and died on 10 september 1898. She was born in munich, bavaria, the daughter of the noble duke joseph of the kingdom of bavaria. Owing to the distance of her father from the courts and the fact that she lived in a mountain village, cece grew up in a free environment with little discipline。

In 1853, a turning point in her life, she accompanied her mother, princess ludwika (the daughter of king bavaria, the mother of the austrian emperor), and sister helen to austria. The purpose of this trip was initially to arrange for helen to be with the austrian emperor, but it was not meant to be in the shadow of the willows. The austrian emperor, franz joseph i, met with her and never disobeyed him as a tough mother, offering to marry ceci or not to marry for life. After five days, two persons were engaged and formally married in 1854. The marriage also locked princess ceci in a cage and began her miserable and legendary life。
The musical ceci and joseph are speaking
Since ceci's birth is not remarkable, her father is merely a nobility of the kingdom of bavaria, and she has not had a strict ceremonial education since she was a child, and she has not been recognized in the palace, especially with her mother-in-law, princess sophie. Sophie's arbitrariness, joseph's weakness, the fact that ceci was under surveillance in the palace and even that housekeeping was told about others, not only put her under mental pressure, but also caused her to fall sharply in physical condition。
Ten months after marriage, 16-year-old ceci had her first daughter, sophie. Upon her birth, she named her child after princess sophie without ceci's consent, and took her away from ceci and was raised by sophie herself, refusing to breastfeed and even visit her. Two years later, daughter gisella was born in the same situation as the first daughter. Soon after, joseph asked ceci to travel with him to hungary to help him succeed politically with her beauty. Ceci, aware that beauty was in her hands, offered to take her two daughters with her, otherwise she would never have taken the journey, and joseph would have agreed. Unfortunately, the two daughters suffered from diarrhoea, and their eldest daughter died as a result, which had a devastating effect on her and had suffered from depression that had surrounded her throughout her life. But in 1857, and another turning point in the life of ceci, she was close to hungary, loved by the hungarian people and eventually led to the creation of the austro-hungarian empire in 1867。

In 1858, ceci finally gave birth to rudolph, the heir to the empire, who, although she had been recognized in the palace and who had struggled to secure custody of the child, was in a state of deterioration, suffering from anaemia and, at the advice of a doctor, went to marad for maintenance. During this period, rumours were spread about joseph and actresses and, six months later, ceci returned to the palace, but her body was only worse, and even infected with willow disease. In 1889, rudolf was not able to recover from the shock and traveled from the palace because of her own free political ideas and her feelings with mary, and because of the unwillingness of ceci, who was a free mind, to listen to him. In 1898, in geneva, switzerland, the italian anarchist killer lucchini, who had planned to assassinate the king of france, duke of orléans, left geneva early for valais. When lucchini learned that ceci was the queen of the austro-hungarian empire, he decided to kill her. That's how ceci left the world in such a dramatic way。
Relations with hungary
The behaviour of one person is partly guided by thought, and the friendship of ceci towards hungary is based on the following: 1: cyci's desire for freedom and distasteful of traditional vienna palaces; 2; sir john mayners, for his history teacher, has aroused the interest of the cyci in hungary; and 3; the friendship of the hungarian people vis-à-vis cece is in stark contrast to that of the austrian palace, making the cyci more sympathetic to republicanism。

Since the defeat of the hungarian revolution in 1848, it had been in a state of hostility with austria, and only by force could the rebellion in hungary be quelled. After ceci and joseph were married, the hungarian people would pin their hopes on her. At the end of her first trip to hungary, ceci began to openly confront joseph politically, dressed in hungarian dress, studying hungarian, fascinated by hungarian knight literature, and surrounded by hungarian women. Of course, the most important thing in the settlement is the relationship between ceci and count andras. Count andras was the leader of the hungarian reform in 1848 and became the leader of hungary, and he and ceci appreciated each other and even heard of their love for each other. Because of the rapid rise of prussia in bismarck, which threatened austria's position in germany, it had joined with hungary as an austrian measure of self-protection. And the deep-seated hostility between count andras and emperor joseph was driven by the advice of ceci, which allowed calm and peaceful communication between them and ultimately led to the establishment of the austrian-hungarian empire。
Iii. Life's “eccentricity”
Ceci's eccentricity is indistinguishable from the word “beautiful”, and since ceci realized that beauty was her bargaining chip, she has done a lot of work to keep it beautiful. For example, ceci is very fond of covering her face with strawberries and honey to make her face with fresh and blooded veal every night, because she thinks she can tighten her skin and swell her face。

Of course, what fascinates her most is the slenderness of the waist line and the weight of not more than 100 pounds. In order to achieve this goal, she uses “hunger therapy”, without meat, but only milk and eggs as the main source of protein; she wears a tight suit every day, bound to her waist, even because it impedes the flow of blood and oppresses the heart, so that she can walk a long way after being stabbed; and she loves physical exercise, which she practices daily as a result of her father's circus, when she marries, with double bars, rings, swords, horsebacks and so much later in the evening she can wear a heavy evening dress. All the troubles of the modern man, and even more so that ceci can't stand it, have an enviable chestnut with long hair, and have carefully managed the need for the courtesan to have transparent glue on her hands and to have her hair dropped so that she can think that she won't lose her hair。
Of course, these beautiful maintenances cost a great deal of money, and her luxuries have undoubtedly increased the burden on the austrian people and need to be blamed to some extent。
Although princess ceci is to be condemned for certain aspects of life, her credit for the establishment of the austrian-hungarian empire is indelible, and her courage and wisdom in the struggle with the traditional palaces is commendable. From the 1955 princess cece film to the theo elizabeth musical show, she was uniquely glamoured in world history。
