Description

This critical edition of Francoise Pascal's epistolary collection "Le Commerce du Parnasse" (Paris, 1669) highlights a rare, innovative and entertaining work by a woman writer virtually unknown today, but in her time a distinguished playwright, poet and painter. Composed of letters in prose and verse, this is part gallant correspondence, part poetry collection, part epistolary novel. It provides insights into 17th-century salon life and the discourses of "galanterie" and "preciosite". The text, introduction and essential notes are all in French.
