A new translation of Graffigny's groundbreaking eighteenth-century novel, in which an Inca woman is brought to France and experiences a new and alien society, combining a love story with devastating social commentary.
The introduction looks in detail at the originality of the novel, the reasons for its enormous popularity, and the controversy it aroused.
Appendices include extracts from text not easily obtainable elsewhere: Graffigny's principal source, Garcilosa's Royal Commentaries of Peru, and contemporary French continuations of the novel and continuations/adaptations of the novel in England.
The first fully annotated English translation, based on the most recent and reliable critical edition of the text, which retains Graffigny's subtle characterization.
