About this book

In a time when marriage was often seen as a social contract rather than a romantic union, "Les quinze joyes de mariage" by Antoine de La Sale offers a sharp satirical lens on the institution. This 15th-century work humorously dissects the trials and tribulations of married life, revealing the stark contrast between societal expectations and personal experiences. With its vivid portrayals of marital discord and the bittersweet realities of love, the text captures the essence of human relationships. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians alike, this document serves as a compelling reflection on the complexities of marriage, inviting readers to ponder the enduring joys and sorrows that accompany this age-old commitment.
