# Les historiettes de Tallemant des Réaux, tome cinquième

_Mémoires pour servir à l'histoire du XVIIe siècle_

By Tallemant des Réaux.

"Les historiettes de Tallemant des Réaux, tome cinquième" by Tallemant des Réaux is a collection of personal memoirs written from 1657 onwards. This fifth volume continues Tallemant's vivid portraits of seventeenth-century French society, capturing intimate anecdotes about kings, politicians, writers, and scandalous courtesans. Written without intention of publication, these accounts remained manuscript until 1834, when they shocked readers with their iconoclastic revelations about the Grand Siècle. Independent sources have since confirmed the accuracy of Tallemant's often irreverent observations about France's most celebrated figures. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
