Book Description
Marguerite de Navarre (1492-1549), also known as Marguerite of Angouleme and Margaret of Navarre, was the queen consort of King Henry II of Navarre. As patron of humanists and reformers, and as an author in her own right, she was an outstanding figure of the French Renaissance. Samuel Putnam called her "The First Modern Woman." Marguerite wrote many poems and plays and the classic collection of stories, the Heptameron. The collection first appeared in print in 1558 under the title Histoires des Amans Fortunez edited by Pierre Boaistuau. The Heptameron is a collection of 72 short stories in the form of a frame narrative and was inspired by the Decameron of Giovanni Boccaccio. It was originally intended to contain one hundred stories covering ten days just as the Decameron does but at Marguerite's death it was only completed as far as the second story of the eighth day. As a generous patron of the arts, Marguerite befriended and protected many artists and writers, among them Francois Rabelais (1483-1553), Clement Marot (1496-1544), and Pierre de Ronsard (1524-85); also, Marguerite was mediator between Roman Catholics and Protestants (including John Calvin).

Not illustrated. 1894 edition. Excerpt: ... TALE LXX. The Duchess of Burgundy, not content tot (A the love that her husband bore her, conceived so great an affection for a young gentleman thai, when looks and glances -were not sufficient to inform him of her passion, she declared it to him in words which led to an evil ending. DEGREES In the Duchy of Burgundy there was a Duke who was a very honourable and handsome Prince. He had married a wife whose beauty pleased him so greatly that it kept him from knowledge of her character, and he took thought only how he might please her, whilst she made excellent show of returning his affection. Now the Duke had in his household a gentleman filled with all the perfection that could be sought for in a man. He was loved by all, more especially by the Duke, who had reared him from childhood near his own person; and, finding him possessed of such excellent qualities, the Duke loved him exceedingly and trusted him with all such matters as one of his years could understand 1 This story is borrowed from an o& fabliau, known under the title of the Ch&telaine de Vcrgy, which will be found in the Recueil de Barbatan (vol iv.) and in Legrand d'Aussy's Fabliaux (vol iii.). Margaret calls the lady Madame du Vergier (literally the lady of the orchard) in her talc. Bandello imitated the same/abliauin his Novell* (1554; part iv. nov. v.), but gave it a different ending. Belleforest subsequently adapted it for his Histoires Tragiques. Margaret's tale may also be compared with No. Ixii. of the Cento Novell* antiche, p. 84 of the edition of Florence, 1825.--L. and M. The Duchess, who had not the heart of a virtuous woman and Princess, and was not content with the love that her husband bore her and the good treatment that she had at his hands, often observed
