This book explores the secret dealings of the French court during the minority of Louis XIV from 1651 to 1657, detailing the struggles of major political players of the era. The author provides insight into how Cardinal Mazarin's absence from France and the ambitions of the Duc d'Orlà ans and Prince de Condà destabilized the regency of Anne of Austria and threatened the stability of the French monarchy. The book also delves into the machinations of the Fronde, a coalition of nobles and bourgeois opposed to the court, whose actions further complicated the political landscape. Through a meticulous examination of letters and diplomatic exchanges, the author sheds light on the complex motivations and strategies of these key figures, offering a nuanced understanding of the period's political intrigue and the challenges faced by the young Louis XIV as he ascended to power. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Para tratar el asunto de la igualdad entre los sexos el autor acudió a la llegada accidental de un viajero tras un naufragio a una isla ficticia en Oriente, Manghalour, cuya población tenía un remoto origen francés (por haberla conquistado en el siglo XI), cuya lengua conservaba en su estado arcaico, en la que las mujeres estaban situadas en el mismo rango social que los hombres (incluso se alternaban en reinarla) y reclamaban poder ir a la guerra igual que ellos.(2).- // (1) Nos parece muy acertada la denominación empleada Nicolaas van Wijngaarden: Les odyssées philosophiques en France entre 1616 et 1789.- Genève: Slatkine, 1982, para distinguir un subgénero de los textos de utopías.- (2) Quizás el estudio más completo sobre esta 'odisea' es todavía el que se desarrolla en Donald McCallum: A Study of Les Femmes militaires by Louis Rustaing de Saint-Jory.- Master Degree.- University of Toronto, 1972.
