ANONYMOUS LATE 14TH OR EARLY 15TH CENTURY FRENCH SATIRE IN PROSE
Les Quinze Joies de mariage
Les Quinze joies de mariage (The 15 Joys of Marriage) is an anonymous late 14th or early 15th century French satire in prose which presents a picture, full of sharpness and humour, of the rows and deceits which afflict the married state. The misogynist satire is allied to a pitiless analysis of the blindness of husbands in everyday, concrete situations.
