The story of Sapho. Translated and with an introduction by Karen Newman. Scudéry
23,00 €
Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar. - Ridiculed for her Saturday salon, her long romance novels, and her protofeminist ideas, Madeleine de Scudéry (1607-1701) has not been treated kindly by the literary establishment. Yet her multivolume novels were popular bestsellers translated almost immediately into English, German, Italian, Spanish, and even Arabic. The Story of Sapbo makes available for the first time in modern English a self-contained section from Scudéry's novel Artamine, ou, Le Grand Cyrus, best known today as the favored reading material of the would-be salonnières whom Molière satirized in Les précieuses ridicules. The Story tells of Sapho, a woman writer modeled on the Greek Sappho, who deems marriage slavery.
