Among other poems inspired by her are K N., and Ia pomniu vremia zolotoe … Published extracts from the letters and diaries of Maximilian von Lerchenfeld illuminate the first years of Tyutchev as a diplomat in Munich ( 1822 – 26 ), giving details of his frustrated love affair for Amélie, nearly involving a duel ( probably with his colleague, Baron Alexander von Krüdener ), in January 1825.

Amélie was coerced by her relatives into marrying the much older Krüdener, but she and Tyutchev continued to be friends and frequented the same diplomatic society in Munich.

Yesterday I felt a moment of burning emotion due to my meeting with [...] my dear Amalie Krüdener who wished to see me for the last time in this world and came to take her leave of me.

* Barbara Juliana, Baroness von Krüdener was his great granddaughter.

Baroness Barbara Juliane von Krüdener ( November 22, 1764 – December 25, 1824 ) was a Baltic German religious mystic and author.

Von Krüdener was born in Riga, Governorate of Livonia.

Barbe-Julie de Wietinghoff, better known as Madame von Krüdener ( Mme.

de Krüdener ) later in life, but, as a child, referred to as Juliana, was one of five children born into the wealthy Wietinghoff family.

However, when Baron Bourkhardt-Alexis-Constantine Krüdener, a widower sixteen years her senior, sought her hand, she had no such qualms.

" The glowing description of the Count in Valérie represents Baron Krüdener more as his wife ’ s ardent imagination loved to picture him, than as he really was.

The same year Baron Krüdener became ambassador at Venice, later ( 1786 ) at Munich where he remained until transferred to Copenhagen in 1787.

But the stiff court society of Prussia was irksome to her ; money difficulties continued ; and by way of climax, the murder of the Tsar Paul, in whose favour Baron Krüdener had stood high, made the position of the ambassador extremely precarious.

The empress Elizabeth of Russia was now at Karlsruhe ; and she and the pietist ladies of her entourage hoped that the emperor Alexander might find at the hands of Madame de Krüdener the peace which an interview with Jung-Stilling had failed to bring him.

Chiliasm seemed to have found an entrance into the high councils of Europe, and the baroness von Krüdener had become a political force to be reckoned with.

Madame de Krüdener herself claimed that she had suggested the idea, and that Alexander had submitted the draft for her approval.
