QR code
"Adam, Ève et Brid'oison" by Paul Margueritte is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book addresses social reforms and the evolving role of women in society, particularly in the context of the aftermath of war and changing moral landscapes. It reflects on the dichotomy between human instincts represented by Adam and Ève and the societal norms imposed by "Brid'oison," a metaphor for societal constraints. The beginning of the novel
introduces the author's intent, highlighting the necessity for societal reforms brought on by the war's aftermath. Margueritte presents Adam and Ève as embodiments of natural human instincts and feelings, in contrast to Brid'oison, which symbolizes the rigidity of societal norms and values. The author contemplates the liberation of women through their involvement in various professions during wartime, questioning the validity of the restrictions placed upon them by society. Through this lens, he critiques traditional views about marriage, motherhood, and the moral expectations of women, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of these themes throughout the book.
