| Summary | "Les amours du temps passé" by Charles Monselet is a fictional work written in the late 19th century. The story follows the character M. le chevalier de Pimprenelle, who is portrayed as a dandy enamored with fashionable society and the affairs of love, showcasing a humorous exploration of romantic entanglements and social pretensions. The opening of the work introduces M. le chevalier de Pimprenelle as he awakens after a night of indulgence, illustrating his flamboyant personality through his interactions with his valet, La Brie. As Pimprenelle bemoans the state of his attire from the previous evening, he decides to reinvent himself as a "petit-maître," embodying the whimsical and fashionable man of his time. The dialogue between him and La Brie reveals Pimprenelle's aspirations for grandeur and extravagance, setting the stage for his social interactions and romantic pursuits, including plans to impress the dancer Tonton at the opera, while also hinting at a more complex web of relationships to come.
