Excerpt from Madame De SévignéIT may appear hard at present to Speak about Madame de Sevigne so much has been written upon her that it seems nothing considerable can be said. As she had particularly a sincere and open character, the writers who have treated of her have generally drawn an exact portrait, and have not been put to much trouble to depict her as she was. The consequence is that, if a writer endeavours to do otherwise than they, there is a risk of painting her likeness untruth fully the more apparent parts would, perhaps, be neglected under pretext that everybody had seen them, and others would be given more than suitable importance, so that, to 'show her with a fresh face, a fanciful one would be traced.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
