Pierre de Bourdeille Brantôme Bücher
Brantôme war kein strenger Historiker, aber seine Memoiren bieten einen faszinierenden, wenn auch unzuverlässigen Einblick in das höfische Leben und dessen moralische Freizügigkeit. Mit bemerkenswerter Offenheit und Naivität schildert er seine Zeitgenossen, deren Leben oft den gesellschaftlichen Erwartungen der Zeit trotzte. Seine Werke tauchen tief in explizite Details menschlicher Sexualität und Anatomie ein, alles mit einer entwaffnenden Selbstvergessenheit erzählt. Leser erhalten so ein lebendiges Porträt einer Ära, voller unverfrorener Galanterie und lockerer Sitten.

Životy záletných dam jsou stejně jako ostatní Brantômova "historická" díla spíše kaleidoskopickou mozaikou rozpustilých erotických příhod, anekdotických detailů a nevázaných rozhovorů. Autor je v nich všetečným pozorovatelem, hodnověrným svědkem, ale především barvitým vypravěčem, v jehož pojetí se dějiny stávají kronikou plnou nezbedných a ne vždy smyšlených příběhů..
