AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

In 1650 Corneille, at the height of his fame, suffers his first failure. Pertharite will be performed only twice. Material difficulties also mount. The Fronde deprives him of his post as prosecutor for the Estates of Normandy and of the pension Mazarin had been paying him. He then shuts himself up for seven years in silence to devote himself to translating The Imitation of Christ. He also translates the Office of the Blessed Virgin and a few Latin poems that are sung in churches.
