Summary "Mademoiselle de Scudéry, sa vie et sa correspondance, avec un choix de ses poésies" is a collection of letters and poetry concerning the life of Madeleine de Scudéry, written in the late 19th century. The book offers insights into the esteemed French writer's contributions to literature and her place in 17th-century society, highlighting her relationships and correspondence with contemporaries such as Madame de Sévigné and the great Corneille. The opening of this volume emphasizes the cultural and literary significance of Mlle de Scudéry, proposing that her works reflect the evolution of polite society in France during her lifetime. It introduces the idea of revisiting her often overlooked poetry and letters that convey not only her literary prowess but also her personal connections and experiences, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of her legacy in a changing society. The editors express their intent to present a curated selection of her most impactful writings while situating her within the literary and social dynamics of her era.
