The Memoirs of Madame De Montespan, V4 is a historical book written by Madame La Marquise De Montespan. The book is a collection of memoirs that provide an intimate and detailed account of the author's life as a mistress of King Louis XIV of France. The fourth volume of the series covers the period from 1675 to 1680, during which Madame De Montespan was at the height of her power and influence at the royal court. The book offers an insight into the politics, intrigues, and scandals of the French court, as well as the personal life and thoughts of the author. The reader will discover the author's relationships with other members of the court, including her rivals and enemies, as well as her children and the king himself. The book is a fascinating and engaging read for anyone interested in French history, court life, and the role of women in society during the 17th century.As Madame de Maintenon's character happened to please the King, as I have already stated, he allotted her handsome apartments at Court while waiting until he could keep her there as a fixture, by conferring upon her some important appointment. She had the honour of being presented to the Queen, who paid her a thousand compliments respecting the Duc du Maine's perfectionsThis scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
