Seller's Description:
Very good in good dust jacket. Price clipped. Jacket faded and with some tears, price sticker, now protected in mylar, college bookstore price stamp inside front cover, no other marks. Sewn binding. Cloth over boards. 308 p. Contains: Illustrations. Audience: General/trade. Dorothy Backer provides the first and only portrait of this regal elite-who reigned supreme until imitators turned their unique style into a popular fad. She also portrays the men in their lives: the husbands who brutalized and indulged them, the royal lovers who pursued them, and the poets who sang their praises (usually in lamentable verse). In telling their remarkable story, Professor Backer reveals why these very ladies who sighed over shallow literature, spoke in contrived metaphors, and ultimately became the target of Moliere's satire, were nevertheless the first women anywhere to band together in consciousness of their womanly plight. Here are such illustrious precieuses as Catherine d'Angennes (also reknown as "La Divine Arthenice"), Mme. des Loges (to whom Balzac wrote adminring letters), "Sapho, " the ultimate prude, and Ninon Lenclose, whose boudoir was a delightful refuge for the loftiest men of the age. Professor Backer paints them all against the backdrop of their own world-a world in which a woman might be thrust into marriage before her thirteenth birthday, die of smallpox or agonizing childbirth, or see her husband slain in a duel. Frivolous as they were, says the author, the Precieuses represented mothing less than a unified feminine attack against the madness and vulgaritly of that world. Precious Women tells their great, forgotten story. It also rescues the small, but real, successes of this very early women's movement-buried, until now, under centuries of ridicule.
