The Book of the Courtesans

Griffin, Susan

A provocative study of the life and times of the West´s first female power brokers explains how courtesans used their liaisons with some of the world´s most powerful and celebrated men to give themselves an extraordinary influence, wealth, and freedom in a male-dominated world and offers profiles of these remarkable women, including Veronica Franco, Madame de Pompadour, and Marion Davies.
