-:''[[Historiettes, Contes et Fabliaux]]''
+'''Angélique Paulet''' (1592-1651).
-The ''[[Historiettes]]'' is a collection of short [[biographies]] by French chronicler [[Gédéon Tallemant, Sieur Des Réaux]].
-In the ''Historiettes'' Réaux gives finished portraits of [[Vincent Voiture]], [[Jean Louis Guez de Balzac]], [[François de Malherbe|Malherbe]], [[Jean Chapelain]], [[Valentin Conrart]] and many others; [[Blaise Pascal]] and [[Jean de la Fontaine]] appear in his work; and he chronicles the scandals of which [[Ninon de l'Enclos]] and [[Angélique Paulet]] were centres.
-The ''Historiettes'' are invaluable for the literary history of the time. It has been said that the malicious intention of Tallemant's work may be partly attributed to his [[bourgeois]] extraction and that the slights he received are avenged in his pages, but independent testimony has established the substantial correctness of his statements.
-The work remained in manuscript until it was edited in 1834-6 by MM. [[de Châteaugiron]], [[Jules Taschereau]] and [[Louis Jean Nicolas Monmerqué|LJN de Monmerqué]], with a notice on Tallemant by Monmerqué. A third edition (6 vols. 1872) contains a notice by [[Alexis Paulin Paris|Paulin Paris]].
