Acknowledgments One day in August 2004 I was speaking to Michele Giacalone of the Italian Cultural Institute in Washington, D.C., about setting up a lecture on Italian royal mistresses to promote my first book, Sex with Kings. Michele asked me, “Since you enjoy writing about controversial women, why don’t you write a book on Olimpia Maidalchini Pamphili?” And I said, “Olimpia who?” Delving into the story of this forgotten woman, I was quickly fascinated and soon obsessed. My heartfelt thanks to Michele Giacalone, who heard Olimpia stories during his childhood in Rome. But for his timely suggestion, I would never have heard of her. Nor would this book have been possible without the dauntless detective work of my assistant in Rome, Nancy Meiman, an American-born, Italian-spewing Sherlock Holmes of history, who tirelessly dug up places and sources related to Olimpia. I am very thankful to Alessandra Mercantini and the staff of the Doria Pamphilj Archives in Rome for permitting me to peruse Olimpia’s family letters. These letters allow Olimpia and her relatives to speak for themselves, and bring to life their daily vexations, hopes, and fears. I would like to thank His Excellency Adhemar Gabriel Bahadian, Brazil’s ambassador to Italy, who generously opened up his embassy and residence on the Piazza Navona, the palace Olimpia built. He gave Nancy and me a fascinating tour and permitted us to wander around
