Lettres persanes - Tome premier

by Charles-Louis de Secondat, baron de La Brède et de Montesquieu

Les Lettres persanes est un roman épistolaire du XVIIIe siècle, où Montesquieu utilise la perspective de deux voyageurs persans, Usbek et Rica, pour critiquer la société française. Le roman est présenté comme une collection de lettres fictives entre les deux voyageurs et leurs correspondants en Perse, offrant un regard satirique et humoristique sur les coutumes, les institutions et les idées de la France de l'époque. Les lettres abordent des sujets tels que l'amour, le mariage, la politique, la religion et les mœurs, offrant une critique sociale incisive et souvent provocante.
