"Les quinze joyes de mariage" by Antoine de La Sale is a satirical exploration of marriage written in the 15th century. The narrative delves into the various challenges and miseries faced by married individuals, presenting a blend of humor and poignant commentary on the human condition. The unnamed narrator appears to reflect on the absurdities of marital life, emphasizing the disparity between perceived joys and underlying troubles. The opening portion introduces the themes and tone of the work, illustrating the trials of marriage through a series of anecdotes. The narrator describes the initial excitement and joy associated with young love, only to reveal the inevitable trials that follow, such as financial struggles, emotional strife, and familial obligations. This introduction sets the stage for the subsequent "joyes," each laying bare the realities of married life while maintaining a philosophical yet humorous undertone, engaging readers in a reflection on companionship and the often unfulfilled expectations of marital happiness.
