Madame Therese : ウィキペディア英語版 | Madame Therese
Madame Therese (floruit 1706-1729), was the professional name of a famous Dutch brothel keeper. She operated one of the largest and most famous brothels of her time in Amsterdam, with a reputed international list of powerful clients, and was often caricatured in the press. She is confirmed as active from 1706 until 1729. Few details of Therese's own background are known, but she is believed to have been from the Southern Netherlands and to have been a prostitute herself before becoming a procurer and the manager of a brothel. Her business as a madam is first formally documented in 3 March 1708, when four of her employees was arrested. Therese herself was never arrested, but was variously mentioned in court protocols when her employees were. In 1720, it is confirmed that she operated an exclusive brothel at Prinsengracht. Madame Therese and her brothel were widely reputed in Europe and often used in the press and literature, which made her well known also in later Dutch history. She was caricatured by Jacob Campo Weyerman, and a concept of her profession as a procurer by her nicknames, such as for example "The Grandmother of Destruction". According to satirical pamphlets, Prince Eugene of Savoy and the British diplomat Louis Renard was among her international clients. It is not known how long she was active, as new regulations forced prostitution underground in 1726, but she is known to have still been active in 1729. == References ==
