Les Caractères ou les mœurs de ce siècle, by Jean de La Bruyère, is a collection of character sketches and reflections on morality and society in 17th-century France. First published in 1688, it offers a critical yet insightful view of the court of Louis XIV and the various social classes of the time. La Bruyère’s work is renowned for its sharp wit, keen observations, and elegant prose. Each 'character' serves as a window into the manners, affectations, and moral failings of individuals and the broader societal structures. 'Les Caractères' remains a significant work in French literature, providing valuable insights into the social and intellectual landscape of the era.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
