# Les historiettes de Tallemant des Réaux, tome quatrième

_Mémoires pour servir à l'histoire du XVIIe siècle_

By Tallemant des Réaux.

"Les historiettes de Tallemant des Réaux, tome quatrième" by Tallemant des Réaux is a collection of personal memoirs begun in 1657. This fourth volume continues Tallemant's vivid portraits of seventeenth-century French society, capturing political and literary figures through anecdotes and conversations. Originally not intended for publication, these accounts remained in manuscript form until 1834, when they scandalized readers with their iconoclastic revelations about the Grand Siècle. The work profiles royalty, writers, courtesans, and political figures, offering intimate glimpses behind the era's polished facade. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
