Summary "La Cour de Louis XIV" by Imbert de Saint-Amand is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. The text focuses on the lives of the women of the French court during the reigns of Louis XIV and Louis XV, exploring their roles, relationships, and societal influences that played a significant part in the historical narrative of France. The opening of the book sets the stage for a detailed examination of the experiences of notable women associated with the court of Versailles, such as Queen Marie-Thérèse, Madame de Montespan, and Madame de Maintenon. It discusses the historical context and transformation of Versailles into a royal residence while providing an overview of the character dynamics and moral lessons derived from their lives. The author expresses a desire to reconstruct their stories, presenting a portrait of the women who influenced both the court and the broader tapestry of French history.
