Lady Jackson describes the different types of salons, the people who frequented them, and the topics that were discussed. She also provides biographical sketches of some of the most famous salonni�����res, such as Madame de Sta�����l and Madame Geoffrin.The third part of the book is about the theaters of the Old Regime.
