Les differens caracteres des femmes du siecle avec La description de l'amour propre (Édition de 1694)

At the heart of the quarrel between the Ancients and the Moderns, Madame de Pringy is a moralist and analyzes several types of women—all guilty, according to her, of self-love. This treatise, of undeniable sociological value, restores a more balanced view of the social ferment of the late seventeenth century.
