Summary | "Proverbes sur les femmes, l’amitié, l’amour et le mariage" by P.-M. Quitard is a collection of proverbs and reflections pertaining to various aspects of gender relations and domestic life, written in the late 19th century. This work compiles traditional sayings that examine the roles of women in love, friendship, and marriage, often juxtaposing cultural wisdom with humorous or critical insights. The book aims to both entertain and enlighten readers about societal views on women and their relationships with men. The opening of the text introduces the author’s purpose and ethos in compiling these proverbs. Quitard clarifies his intention to present a balanced view of women, avoiding extremes of satire or scandalous caricature. He discusses the significance of proverbs as reflections of national customs and morals, promising that the sayings within provide valuable insights into the qualities and roles attributed to women. These insights range from commentary on marriage dynamics to musings on women's nature and behavior, setting the foundation for a discourse that melds wisdom with wit.
