A French Imaginative Portrait of Madame Dudevant
A lengthy sketch reviews Aurore de Holn, Madame Dudevant, tracing her youth from a chateau in Nohaut to convent schooling and salons. It portrays her literary tastes, phrenology fascination, marriages, and the reforming, independent stance of her era, with excerpts from her Autobiography and a vignette of the Saint Chartier priest and parish life.
