The Princess of Cleves Summary
| Though the Congress of Cercamp had been broken off, the negotiations for the peace were continued, and things were so disposed, that towards the latter end of February the conferences were reassumed at Chateau-Cambresis; the same plenipotentiaries were sent as before, and the Mareschal de St. Andre being one, his absence freed the Duke de Nemours from a rival, who was formidable rather from his curiosity in observing those who addressed to Madam de Cleves, than from any advances he was capable of making himself in her favour. |
|
|
| Grandeur and gallantry never appeared with more lustre in France, than in the last years of Henry the Second’s reign. This Prince was amorous and handsome, and though his passion for Diana of Poitiers Duchess of Valentinois, was of above twenty years standing, it was not the less violent, nor did he give less distinguishing proofs of it. |

' The Princess of Cleves |
|
|
| Regarded as the first modern French romantic novel, it was written during the reign of Henry II of France. It is a love story of young beautiful women, Madame de Cleves who is married to the Prince de Cleves. Her marriage lacks passion and she falls in love with another man. The author has described her true emotions as she tries to overcome her feelings and remains a truthful woman. Superb! |
