Reading Up From the Country, Infidelities, The Game of Love and Chance | Alexandria
Read Up From the Country, Infidelities, The Game of Love and Chance by Pierre de Marivaux. Revealing human manipulation games, these dramatic works expose how pride and passion drive social deception - centuries before reality TV made performative relationships mainstream. By showing servants outsmarting aristocrats through wit alone, Marivaux daringly suggested true nobility comes from character, not class.
