Marie Bonaparte 1882-1962
Marie Bonaparte was many extraordinary things: princess, psychoanalyst, sexologist, leading figure of French culture, cosmopolitan, feminist and patient of Freud. She was distantly related to Lucien, Napoleon’s younger brother, which gave her the right to call herself a princess, and through her marriage to the son of the Greek king she also became a member of a royal family with close connections to the British and Danish monarchies
