Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Latr�aumont, Vol. 2
On parle d'une r�gion (la cour) o� les vieillards sont ga lanls polis et civils; les jeunes gens, au contraire durs, f� roccs, sans moeurs ni politesse; ils se trouvent ai�ranchis de la passion des femmes dans un �ge o� l'on commence ailleurs � la sentir; ils leur pr�f�rent des repas des Viandes, et des amours ridicules et inl'�mes. Celui - l� chez eux est sobre et mod�r�, qui ne s'enivre que de vin; l'usage immod�r� qu'ils en ont fait le leur a rendu insipide.
