History of a noble soul, intermittences of a woman's heart, confusion of feelings, painful battles between heart and reason, morality and desire, everything is said of the passion which carries and upsets two beings prisoners of their condition at the court of King Henry II. Through the impossible love of the Princess of Cleves and the Duke of Nemours, Madame de Lafayette revealed the resources of the novel and, in the light rustle of court dresses, paved the way for the most daring psychological analysis.
