High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Princess Adelheid Amalie Gallitzin (also known as Amaliia Samuilovna Golitsyna) (28 August 1748 17 April 1806), was the daughter of the Prussian Field Marshal Samuel von Schmettau and the mother of Prince Demetrius Augustine Gallitzin. She was born in Berlin and educated in the Roman Catholic faith, although she soon became estranged from it through the influence of Voltairian tutors. In 1768, she married the Russian Prince Dimitri Alexeievich Galitzine, who was under Catherine II ambassador at Paris, Turin and The Hague. In each of these capitals, the princess, thanks to her beauty and her qualities of mind and heart, played a brilliant role. At the age of twenty-four she forsook society suddenly and devoted herself to the education of her children. She applied herself to the study of mathematics, classical philology, and philosophy under Franz Hemsterhuis, who kindled her enthusiasm for Socratic-Platonic idealism, and later under the name of "Diokles" dedicated to her the "Diotima", his Lettres sur l'atheisme.
