Written over three hundred years ago, The Princess of Cleves transports the reader to seventeenth-century French court society, where "love was always allied to politics and politics to love. No one was untroubled or unmoved: each c***idered how to advance, to flatter, to serve or to harm; boredom and idleness were unknown, since everyone was engaged in intrigue or the pursuit of pleasure." The story concerns a strikingly beautiful young woman, raised in seclusion and brought to the court at marriageable age. She is married to the Prince de Cleves, a powerful, sensitive man who adores her and hopes she will eventually reciprocate his feelings. Unfortunately, Madame de Cleves falls passionately in love with the Duc de Nemors, a man "born with every predisposition for courtship and every quality tending toward its success." Lost letters, whispered messages, extensive introspection - all are described in minute detail as Madame de Cleves attempts to overcome her feelings and remain a virtuous woman. The obsession of these characters can seem excessive, yet Madame de Lafayette is careful to place this story within a larger historical context which shows the extraordinary influence these intimate affairs had upon foreign and domestic policy. Her book gives an insider's view into the personal lives of Henry XIII, Mary Stuart, Queen Elizabeth, and others as she initiates Madame de Cleves and the reader into the morals and political maneuverings of her time and class. -- For great reviews of books for girls, check out Let's Hear It for the Girls: 375 Great Books for Readers 2-14. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition

Love finds the motives for decisi*** itself, not in marriage. Its claim to complete individualized uniqueness can only be expressed and registered in the extra-ordinary and only in negation, in renunciation.

我感受到情人逝去和不忠的双重痛苦。这两种痛苦人们经常拿来对比，但是从来没有同时落到一个人身上。说来实在丢人，我得承认，她变心令我痛心，她去世更令我心痛，我还不能认为她死有余辜。假如她活在世上，我还能去责备她，进行报复，指出她负情背义，也好一吐为快：然而，我再也见不到她了，’他重复说道，‘我再也见不到她了。这是痛苦中最大的痛苦。我情愿用自己这条命换回她的生命！多么荒唐的愿望！她若是死而复生的话，那也是为埃斯图特维尔活着。

我只有强烈的、自己也把握不住的感情。我再也配不上您了，但是也觉得您同样配不上我了。我爱您，我恨您：我还冒犯您，在此请求您原谅：我钦佩您，又因钦佩您而感到羞愧。总而言之，我身上再也没有平静和理智了。自从您在库洛米埃对我谈过之后，自从那天您在太子妃宫中得知您的事传出去之后，我不知道自己还怎么能活着。我弄不清这事从哪儿传出去的，也弄不清在这事上，您和德·内穆尔先生之间究竟发生了什么；您永远也不会向我解释明白，我也绝不要求您向我解释。我仅仅请您不要忘记，是您把我变成世上最不幸的男人。”
