La Princesse de Cleves (Edition NOOK Speciale Version Francaise) Madame de La Fayette (French Language Version) by Mme de La Fayette [Madame de La Fayette Complete Works Collection Oeuvres Completes] NOOKbook Princess of Cleves
La Princesse de Clèves est un roman publié anonymement par Marie-Madeleine de La Fayette (Madame de La Fayette) en 1678.
Il s’agit d’un des premiers romans d'analyse de l'histoire littéraire française qui prend comme toile de fond la vie à la cour des Valois, dans les dernières années d'Henri II : il peut donc être défini aussi comme un roman historique. Le souci de la vraisemblance psychologique et la construction rigoureuse inscrivent l'œuvre dans l'esthétique classique de l'époque et ouvre la voie à une forme du roman moderne centrée sur l'étude approfondie des personnages.
Le roman marque également l’affirmation en littérature de la place des femmes dans la vie culturelle du XVIIe siècle et rejoint le courant de la Préciosité. Madame de La Fayette, grande lectrice de Madeleine de Scudéry, fréquentait d'ailleurs assidûment le salon de la marquise de Rambouillet.
Roman fondateur, La Princesse de Clèves est évoqué comme l'un des modèles littéraires qui ont inspiré Balzac ou encore Raymond Radiguet.

La Princesse de Clèves is a French novel which was published anonymously in March 1678. It is regarded by many as the beginning of the modern tradition of the psychological novel, and as a great classic work. Its author is generally held to be Madame de La Fayette.
The action takes place between October 1558 and November 1559 at the royal court of Henry II of France. The novel recreates that era with remarkable precision. Nearly every character – except the heroine – is a historical figure. Events and intrigues unfold with great faithfulness to documentary record.
The novel was an enormous commercial success at the time of its publication, and would-be readers outside of Paris had to wait months to receive copies. The novel also sparked several public debates, including one about its authorship, and another about the wisdom of the Princess' decision to confess her adulterous feelings to her husband.
One of the earliest psychological novels, and also the first roman d'analyse (analysis novel), La Princesse de Clèves marked a major turning point in the history of the novel, which to that point had largely been used to tell romances, implausible stories of heroes overcoming odds to find a happy marriage, with myriad subplots and running ten to twelve volumes. La Princesse de Clèves turned that on its head with a highly realistic plot, introspective language that explored the characters' inner thoughts and emotions, and few but important subplots concerning the lives of other nobles.
