To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

And all the transitory theories of men would, even if they had an absolute unanimity of mortals on their side, not cause the fundamental laws of life to swerve by one hair's breadth. II Let us go back, if you will, to the origin of the world; and keep calm, for we shall very quickly get as far as the Deluge. But the subject is so important that it is worth while tracing it to its remotest source. Have you ever asked yourself why all the prehistoric legends of the most different races made woman... a sort of fatal calamity to 106 George Sand which man had to submit ? You know the legend of an earthly paradise, and also that of Pandora, the wife of Epimetheus. By what strange adventure have the luminous genius of the Greeks and the sombre genius of the Semites come to this agreement in their symbol of the pernicious feminine power ? Listen, on the one hand, to the fierce Ecclesiastes : And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands. On the other hand, hear the sunny Hesiod : An equal wonder seized gods and men as soon as they saw this fatal marvel, so injurious to mortals; for from this virgin [Pandora] came the race of women with full breasts, those danger- ous women, a cruel scourge, living amongst men.
