简介
编辑推荐

The Princess of Cleves is often called the first modern French novel.Its publication in 1678 was a national and even international literary and social event. Within twelve months of its publication, two books had been published about the The Princess of Cleves, the novel had been trans]ated into English, and a literary magazine, Le Mercure Galant,published voluminous correspondence in which the magazine's readers gave their opinion--somewhat in the manner of today's "Dear Abby" newspaper column--on the characters' conduct. The Princess of Cleves had such an impact on French literature that it is reasonable to say that Lafayette's work changed the very meaning of the French word for novel,roman, shifting the meaning from "romance" to our modern conception of the genre as a realistic narrative usually with a limited set of principal characters. ...

The Princess of ClOves is often called the first modern French novel. Published anonymously in 1678, it was immediatelv oooular. The text of this Norton Critical Edition is that of Thomas Sargent Perry's 1892 translation,unareuablv the translation that has best served readers in English. Reprinted repeatedly over the last one hundred years, the Perry translation is in its own right a classic. After careful review, the editor has made a small number of changes to the translation both to correct infelicities of translation (necessary to remain true to Lafayette's text) and to update vocabulary.

In order to experience the innovation of Lafayette's writing, it is necessary to understand the critical resistance it met with in seventeenth-century France. "Contemporary Reactions" includes five assessments of The Princess of Cleves--by Marie-Madeleine de Lafayette, Roger de Bussy-Rabutin and Marie de Sevingne, Jean-Baptiste-Henry de Trousset de Valincour, JeanAntoine de Charnes, and Du Plaisir following its controversial publication.Each selection has been translated from the French by John Lyons; this Norton Critical Edition marks the first time these reactions are available in English.

"Criticism" includes eleven modern studies of the novel (five appearing in English for the first time), by Jean Fabre, Michel Butor, Jean Rousset,Helen Karen Kaps, Gerard Genette, Roger Francillon, Kurt Weinberg,Peggy Kamuf, Erica Harth, Joan DeJean, and Lawrence Gregorio.

A Glossary of Characters and a Selected Bibliography are also included.
