"Deux farces inédites attribuées à la reine Marguerite de Navarre" by Marguerite is a collection of theatrical comedies written in the early 16th century. The book features two plays, "La Fille abhorrant mariage" and "La Vierge repentie," which explore themes of love, marriage, and religious devotion. It likely draws on the cultural and social context of the French court during the Renaissance, reflecting the artistic endeavors of Princess Marguerite, the sister of Francis I. The content of the book revolves around the interactions and inner conflicts of two main characters, Clément and Catherine. In "La Fille abhorrant mariage," the dialogue reveals Catherine's strong desire for virginity and a life dedicated to God, despite Clément's attempts to persuade her toward love and marriage. The second play, "La Vierge repentie," continues this exploration, depicting Catherine's struggle as she reflects on her commitment to remain a nun, fighting against societal and familial pressures that seek to pull her into a conventional married life. Through witty dialogue and moral contemplation, the plays balance humor with deeper philosophical questions about personal choice and adherence to societal expectations, characteristic of Marguerite's literary style.
