Les Caractères by Jean de La Bruyère is a collection of reflections and observations on human nature and society in 17th-century France. Influenced by the ancient Greek writer Theophrastus, La Bruyère presents a series of character sketches that satirize the manners and morals of his time. Through vivid and often humorous portrayals, he exposes the follies and vices of courtiers, intellectuals, and ordinary people alike. This edition offers a comprehensive look at La Bruyère’s masterpiece, inviting readers to explore its enduring insights into human behavior and the complexities of social life. A classic of French literature, Les Caractères remains relevant for its acute observations and timeless wisdom.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
