Wedding night of Mary of Burgundy & Maximilian of Austria [part 1] (Maximilian)

[@kev3d]

So polite! Henry VIII would have have been halfway through the deed and said "Don't you have a sister?"

i lol'd xD

LOL!! You are probably right.

[@scottibrown3274]

Can you imagine how awkward a consummation must have been back then? Especially if you never met your intended until that night? Don’t get me wrong, I know that back then princes and princesses, King’s and Queens understood that they needed to make the marriage valid and start having heirs, but at the same time...it has to be at least a little bit awkward I love the little smile on Margaret’s face at 02:16-mark when Maximilian kicks them out.

[@Lily1127channel]

Yeah, it must have been very awkward. And unnatural. Sex is something that naturally, and biologically, happens when a male and female feel sexual attraction to each other and act on it. But this stupid social invention of mankind, that two people had to get into an arranged marriage and consummate it rightaway, without knowing each other a bit, no matter if at least one of them feels a tiny attraction or not, is just so stupid, and goes against the laws of nature.

[@stoker1931jane]

Sometimes Court people & high ranking Church officials would even been IN 😮 the bedroom on the wedding night. Making even worse!! And "bloody" bed sheets had to be produced😓, to show & prove that the lady had been intact/a virgin at "consummation of the marriage".🤐

[@JNG107]

@@Lily1127channel You call marriage a stupid social invention. But then proceeded to praise the laws of nature. Umm who exactly came up with this laws of nature. Isnt that not a social construct? Meanwhile marriage between man and woman came from the bible (Book of Genesis). By the way this idea of arranged marriages is however a stupid social invention. God never said marry people you do not love. However he warned against fornication(sex before marriage) as it can lead to varied problems young people suffer today. For example Broken hearts, Teen pregnancies, Infidelity(if we choose to act only on sexual attraction instead of a mutual sense of affection, trust and love then no wonder divorces are so common nowadays). I know its hard to actually hold out until wedding night let alone find a partner who is willing to hold out at all. But it isnt impossible or flawed to do so. Which is why i wouldnt say waiting till the wedding night after courting ofcourse is a stupid social invention

[@Lily1127channel]

@@JNG107 I didn't call marriage a stupid social invention OMG 😄😄😄😄 You completely misunderstood it. (I'm just about to get married 😀 ) I called the ARRANGED marriage a stupid invention 😀 The arranged marriage without love or attraction or at least mutual respect for each other. I am totally for a marriage based on the mutual will of the couple, I'm just about to enter one myself 😀

I did too. There is no better way to get the nosy nobles off your back. 😂

I love the fact that when she undressed he didn't look at her. So cutie

[@Belinda8881]

There was no privacy for the newly wed couple in most of the royal courts really. In Portugal all the court accompanied the couple to their bedroom and stayed there for a while.I think that in France it was even worse;the courtiers witnessed everything.There was a true procedure about getting ready for the wedding night in the Portuguese court.We could witness that with the Portuguese royal family who accompanied and helped Pedro and Leopoldina to get ready for their wedding night in " Novo Mundo".Quite funny. In the "Tudors" season one ,the court also witnessed the wedding night between the Portuguese king and Margaret Tudor ( they never married , that was an historical mistake).

[@Zairajaze]

Was it customary in English courts to consummate the marriage in front of many witnesses? Henry VIII went through these procedures when he married his wives? Sorry, I never remember reading about his wedding nights with all his wives.

[@nikist1407]

I remember that this scene made me laughed while watching, a little bit of fun is always welcome 😂

[@ayakotami3318]

Maximilian going out there literally butt naked and telling them to get out had me snorting. 😅

[@songyani3992]

They had a short but happy marriage，unlike Maximillian‘s Great-great-great-many-great grandson Franz Joseph I and Sisi.

[@Kenfren]

That's one way of putting it. Franz Joseph's life was a tragedy

[@GabrielaGARAYREYES]

Franz Joseph loved Sissi😮😮❤

[@TheMagicAround]

Funny how almost every movie about those times uses this trick with throwing out the watchers from the bedrooms door)

[@Lily1127channel]

Haha yes I also had Vikings deja vu 😄

[@TheMagicAround]

@@Lily1127channel Not only... In Tudors Henry said they won't need witnesses in his wedding night with Jane. Franz-Josef & Sisi ran away from the crowd in the movie with Cristiana Capotondi. Even in GoT Martin has shown how good Tyrion was by refusing to have wedding ceremony

[@Lily1127channel]

@@TheMagicAround Yeah, I know 😀

[@stoker1931jane]

It even happened (was portrayed) 2 or 3 times in the highly fictional and non-historical series 'Reign'. With often the King (or Royal male family members and high R.C. Church officials IN the Bedroom.😓

[@sunnylaurie91]

I have read somewhere that witnesses had to be present to ensure the consummation of the marriage. So that later, there could be no claims from either party that the union wasn't consummated because that could be grounds for annulment. And since those marriages were usually for political gains, I doubt they wanted to lose the other party over some technicality.

[@monmothma3358]

But REALLY they were just pervert voyeurs who needed an excuse lol

Well this is what happens when you force two people to get together without a little chemistry first.

[@sinaain]

Pretty ahistorical, for one, she didn’t speak German and he only spoke a little french so they communicated in Latin which neither of them spoke fluently.

[@Lily1127channel]

The actress who plays Mary is French and she spoke French in the miniseries originally, they just dubbed it in the German version for the German audience 🙂 Yes Latin was the language that medieval Europeans usually used for international communication in such cases, but close to no historical drama really makes the actors speak to each other in the original Latin 😀 Every production is pretty ahistorical in that sense. They usually just speak in English (American and British productions) 😄

[@sinaain]

@@Lily1127channelthanks, but my point is that they would have had to communicate in a dead language neither of them spoke fluently which would have given everything a different dynamic.

[@Lily1127channel]

@sinaain Yes, I understand that. My point is that there are tons of such situations in historical dramas when the characters are of two different mother tongues and they should speak Latin to each other, and no director ever makes the actors learn and speak Latin for those scenes 🙂 In theory, it would be nice to have 100% historical accuracy in any such scene. But in the actual world of shooting a movie, one simply has to be practical, usually.

[@tinad7101]

I have no idea.... Yes I see that 😂😂😂

[@SuzQ2]

Am I nuts, or has someone dubbed her lines? The actor playing Maximillian is definitely speaking German, but is she speaking French? And then another actor recorded the lines in German and replaced the actress's lines?

[@CHarlotte-ro4yi]

Exactly! Haven’t been able to find the original version yet…

[@DanBeech-ht7sw]

Although it's just artistic licence in this scene it's plausible. These guys were, in fact had to be, multilingual. The apocryphal quote of Charles V "I speak Spanish to God, Italian to women, French to men and German to my horse" They had lands all over the place with people speaking many languages. So although there's no reason to suppose they spoke two languages in the bedroom, each understanding the other's better than they spoke it - it was possible.

[@Alexanderschtegenburg]

I don't think so 😄

[@theresagwhite3175]

I heard they were considered "unusual" for sharing a bedroom all the time. Most royal couples had separate rooms.

[@JadedKate]

the actual Maximilian would have NEVER shown his naked body like that. much less kick out all these people, that could have been grounds for annulment. but he was very considerate, so I think the part where he was asking her for help and money would have been very accurate. maybe not on their _wedding night_ though... but that part of the conversation does seem very much his character.

[@LyricalXilence]

Public consumation makes sense when you're dealing with important issues like war, money, ruling, and the next King. Want to make sure everything is legit.

is this Maximillian the younger brother of Emperor Franz of Austria?

No. This is Maximilian I, Holy Roman Emperor. He lived from 1459 till 1519. You may mean Franz Joseph I's brother, Maximilian, who lived from 1832 till 1867.

[@Lily1127channel]

@@xoxoMotel Well, the Holy Roman Emperor was a German title, basically. The Holy Roman Empire was an empire in Central Europe and it didn't even have anything to do with Rome or the Romans. From the 1400s on, the Holy Roman Empire was ruled by the Austrian Habsburg Dynasty.
