LOVE AND THE FRENCH Nina Epton Ballantine Books, 1959 S 475 K "...witty, wicked, amusing, exciting, and thoroughly brilliant book on the birth and growth of Love in France. Romantic love, that is, as differentiated from Sex and from the marriage of convenience. And from her first words she leads you through the facts and fancies of love in the Middle Ages, in the Renaissance, in the classical age of the court of Louis XIV, in the sophisticated love of the eighteenth century, in the almost stylized love of the nineteenth century, and into what Miss Epton calls the decline and rebirth of love in the twentieth century. She even ventures to prognosticate the future of love in France on the basis of the status of this art in the France of today.
