| Summary | "Le Médecin des Dames de Néans" by René Boylesve is a novel written in the early 20th century. It explores the lives of the inhabitants of a small town, focusing particularly on the condition of the women there, under the attentive eye of a physician who aims to awaken their dormant spirits. The narrative introduces various characters who create a snapshot of societal norms, expectations, and the differing roles of men and women within the community. The opening of the novel presents a scene in which the abbé and his student, Septime, make a visit to Madame Durosay, a woman whom the town is concerned about due to her declining health. The town's notable physician, known as the "grand médecin," is portrayed as a figure of authority whose opinions greatly influence the locals. As they discuss the situation, it becomes evident that the women of Néans are suffering from a peculiar condition that results in their lethargy and lack of vitality. This establishes a thematic concern of the novel regarding women's lives in a monotonous society and foreshadows the potential conflicts and dynamics that will unfold as the protagonist aims to revive Madame Durosay, indicating both personal and collective journeys toward reawakening.
