Title: Wounded Loves - Jeanne Bourin - book

Summary :

Do you remember, Guillemine, the spring of our fifteenth year? It was in the time of King Francis, the first of his name." Thus speaks Cassandre Salviati, who has just been informed of the death of Pierre de Ronsard. They met one day in April 1545, at Court. A young poet then unknown, he would write: "I saw her, I was mad about her." He was a tonsured cleric and could not marry. She would marry Jean de Bray, a neighboring lord. But Cassandre and Ronsard would never stop loving each other, breaking up, and loving each other again. Always. Cassandre evokes forty years of her life here. An inspiration for Ronsard, a relative of Catherine de Medici, she was above all a woman of the Renaissance, that contrasting era when the arts and literature flourished, while women lost the rights they had acquired in the Middle Ages and wars ravaged the country.
