Pierre de Bourdeille Brantôme

    Brantôme no fue un historiador estricto, pero sus memorias ofrecen una visión fascinante, aunque poco fiable, de la vida cortesana y su prodigalidad moral. Con notable franqueza e ingenuidad, captura a sus contemporáneos, cuyas vidas a menudo desafiaban las expectativas sociales de la época. Su obra se adentra en detalles explícitos de la sexualidad y la anatomía humana, todo narrado con una desarmante falta de autoconciencia. Los lectores obtienen así un vívido retrato de una era, repleto de galantería descarada y costumbres liberales.

    • Životy záletných dam jsou stejně jako ostatní Brantômova "historická" díla spíše kaleidoskopickou mozaikou rozpustilých erotických příhod, anekdotických detailů a nevázaných rozhovorů. Autor je v nich všetečným pozorovatelem, hodnověrným svědkem, ale především barvitým vypravěčem, v jehož pojetí se dějiny stávají kronikou plnou nezbedných a ne vždy smyšlených příběhů..
