Little is known about Marguerite Buffet except that she lived in Paris and taught French to women during the reign of Louis XIV. Her New Observations on the French Language offers a rare glimpse into the life, habits, and culture of seventeenth-century France thanks to Buffets vivid examples of proper language use at the time. Her Praises of Illustrious Learned Women, long considered a valuable source for biographies of some of her contemporaries, lauds an array of women exemplars of erudition, wit, and conversation. The present volume presents Buffet's work in its near entirety for the first time in English.
