Once married, they became legally subservient to their husbands. The duchesse de Montpensier-a first cousin of Louis XIV-was one of very few exceptions, thanks to the vast wealth she inherited from her mother, who died shortly after Montpensier was born. She was also one of the few politically powerful women in France at the time to have been an accomplished writer. In the daring letters presented in this bilingual edition, Montpensier condemns the alliance system of marriage, proposing instead to found a republic that she would govern, "a corner of the world in which . . . women are their own mistresses," and where marriage and even courtship would be outlawed. Her pastoral utopia would provide medical care and vocational training for the poor, and all the homes would have libraries and studies, so that each woman would have a "room of her own" in which to write books. Joan DeJean's lively introduction and accessible translation of Montpensier's letters-four previously unpublished-allow us unprecedented access to the courageous voice of this extraordinary woman. 410 0$aOther voice in early modern Europe. 606 $aPrincesses$zFrance$vCorrespondence 606 $aLadies-in-waiting$zFrance$vCorrespondence 606 $aMarriage 606 $aSex role 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yLouis XIV, 1643-1715 607 $aFrance$xCourt and courtiers$xHistory$y17th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPrincesses 615 0$aLadies-in-waiting 615 0$aMarriage. 615 0$aSex role. 676 $a944/.033/0922 700 $aMontpensier$b Anne-Marie-Louise d'Orle?ans$cduchesse de,$f1627-1693.$0886750 701 $aMotteville$b Franc?oise de$fd. 1689.$0886751 701 $aDeJean$b Joan E$0615743 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451147203321 996 $aAgainst marriage$91980414 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01902cam a22003257i 4500 001 991003042479707536 005 20250430130202.0 008 950628s1728 it aef b 000 0 ita d 035 $ab14272519-39ule_inst 035 $aCICOGNARA-2165$9ExL 040 $aBibl.
