Memoirs of the very famous tragedienne Hyppolyte de la Tude Clairon (1723-1803), who was revered by the greatest figures (Diderot, Voltaire, Louis XV...).

The portrait of Mlle Dumesnil, who was long her rival, contains great acrimony. The work is not composed like classic memoirs but rather as a succession of articles and chapters addressing different themes more or less personal; one will find letters, reviews of plays...
