Etymology of Genlisea:
For Stéphanie Félicité Ducrest de Saint-Aubin, Comtesse de Genlis (1746–1830), author of more than 80 works – historical novels, romances, and prose and poetical compositions. Her La botanique Historique et Literature (1810) discusses the traits, anecdotes, superstitions, celebrities, ceremony, etc. surrounding flowers. She lived through the French Revolution (1789) and was sympathetic to it but, with the fall of the Girondins (a political faction) in 1793, was compelled to take refuge in Switzerland, then Berlin and Hamburg. Her husband, from whom she separated in 1782, was guillotined. She only returned to France in 1799. Napoleon gave her a pension, but Louis XVIII withdrew it, and she had to live on the earnings from her writing.
