Seller's Description
Product Information
In
1758 Diderot's friend the Marquis de Croismare became interested in the
cause celebre of a nun who was appealing to be allowed to leave a Paris
convent. Less than a year later, in an affectionate attempt to trick
his friend, Diderot created this masterpiece - a fictitious set of
desperate and pleading letters to the Marquis from a teenage girl forced
into the nunnery because she is illegitimate. In these letters, the
impressionable and innocent Suzanne Simonin describes the cruelty and
abuse she has suffered in an institution poisoned by vicious gossip,
intrigues, persecutions and deviance. Considered too subversive during
Diderot's lifetime, The Nun first appeared in print in 1796 following
the Revolution. Part gripping novel, part licentious portrayal of sexual
fervour and part damning attack on oppressive religious institutions,
it remains one of the most utterly original works of the many
eighteenth-century.
