Examining the poetry and practice of courtly love and the mores of aristocratic marriages, this work shows that women were regarded as symbols, as figures of temptation who paradoxically had no desire of their own.

Duby reflects on general issues in the writing of cultural history, on the history of pain and heresy, and gives a personal view of the state of historical research in France over recent generations.
