Car is first of all a style, not only in his letters (love letters), and his poetry but also in his prose, see for example the delicious Metamorphoses. His works were the image of man, gallant, teaching fine language and good manners to those familiar with the Rambouillet hotel. His fame was great during his century and remains an emblem for the seventeenth century.
