Description:Excerpt from Ninon De Lenclos Sir, - Behold yourself obeyed; I am at last giving to the public the result of my researches concerning the celebrated Mademoiselle de Lenclos. My task did not consist in merely portraying a femme galante: though this may have been expected by many who knew the nature of my task; but they are of no account, and the past century is an unknown factor where such people are concerned. No. I was bound to depict a woman incomparable from every point of view, a woman who made it her duty to assume all the characteristics of man as soon as she was capable of serious thought; one who - during the already marvellous reign of Louis XIV. - was the cynosure of all who admire and praise merit and distinction. Here we have a woman who, having lived through nine decades, had witnessed more changes and upheavals than it is given to many to experience. In the course of her long and eventful life the fashions of society, the tastes of men and women, the whole drift of things social and political, changed and differed, yet Ninon remained the same.
