That poor man. Thank you for writing a piece that humanizes him. And unfortunately people today continue to judge one another on similar things- if not on deformities, then on weight, or what their face looks like, or their skin color. No one in the world “is ugly” - they make themselves ugly.
Thank you so much, Mariella! Yes, as simple as the idea of not judging someone by their appearance is, we have often been, and still are, so focused on physical condition that we fail to see what truly matters, the beauty of a person’s character and soul.
This is a really great post. Thank you for sharing Charles II in a new light. I agree completely. I also wonder if it ever dawned on the Hapsburgs that their inbreeding could be causing these issues.
