Delphine (novel)
''Delphine'' is the first novel by Germaine de Staël, published in 1802. The book is written in epistolary form (as a series of letters) and examines the limits of women's freedom in an aristocratic society. Although de Staël denied political intent, the book was controversial enough for Napoleon to exile the author. In this tragic novel, influenced by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's ''The Sorrows of Young Werther'' and Jean-Jacques Rousseau's ''Julie, or the New Heloise'', she reflects on the discussions on divorce in the National Assembly before the Concordat of 1801, when the laws were changed; the consequences after the Battle of Verdun (1792) leading to arrests and the September Massacres, the fate of the émigrés. The main characters have traits of Benjamin Constant and Talleyrand, and the liberalist view of the Italian politician Melzi d'Eril.

Delphinine
Delphinine is a toxic diterpenoid alkaloid found in plants from the ''Delphinium'' (larkspur) and '' Atragene'' (a clematis) genera, both in the family ''Ranunculaceae''. Delphinine is the principal alkaloid found in '' Delphinium staphisagria'' seeds – at one time, under the name stavesacre, a very well known herbal treatment for body lice. It is related in structure and has similar effects to aconitine, acting as an allosteric modulator of voltage gated sodium channels, and producing low blood pressure, slowed heart rate and abnormal heart rhythms. These effects make it highly poisonous ( 1.5–3.0 mg/kg in rabbit and dog; frogs are ~10x more susceptible). While it has been used in some alternative medicines (e.g. in herbal medicine), most of the medical community does not recommend using it due to its extreme toxicity. Isolation One of the earliest reports of the isolation of delphinine, from ''D. staphisagria'', was that of the French chemists Lassaigne and Feneulle ...
