De Sevigne wrote to Frangoise, they "left no detail undis- posed of save their own funerals. " But her intimate knowledge of the human heart, of the subtle disin- tegration wrought by passion in the soul and espe- cially in the soul of a woman this knowledge came to Marie de Lafayette at first hand. In no sense is the Princesse de Cleves an autobiography or a con- fession; neither characters or incidents are copied from life. The seventeenth century theory of art as well as its tradition of man...ners, forbade the artist thus crudely to take the public into his confidence or to usurp for his private and personal experience the dignity of universal truth. Nevertheless this The Riddle of the Sphinx 175 woman knew whereof she spoke. If the story of this lovely and hapless young creature is so moving even yet if the heart that ached two hundred years ago beneath buckram and brocade is still akin to every woman's heart that beats, it is it must be because she who created Mme. De Cleves had passed before her along that steep and stony path of self conquest and renunciation.
