A dozen essays, nearly half previously published, present feminist, sociocritical, ethical and religious, and psychological readings of the Princess of Cleves, the protagonist of a controversial novel of that name written by Mme de Lafayette and published anonymously in March 1678. Their purposes are to rehabilitate her reputation, defend her against charges brought against her over the centuries, and establish her as an authentic fictional character distinct from the author.
