Tallemant des Réaux, Gédéon (zhādāôN` täləmäN` dā rāō`), 1619–92, French writer. His one great work is a series of brief anecdotal portraits of persons prominent in the Paris of his day, written after 1657 but not published until 1834. They present a vivid, faithful, and acute picture of the society of the period. The Historiettes have appeared in English as Miniature Portraits (1926). How to thank TFD for its existence?
