Summary "Love in Excess; or, the Fatal Enquiry" by Eliza Fowler Haywood is a novel likely written in the early 18th century. The story revolves around themes of love, passion, and rivalry, primarily centering on the characters Count D’Elmont and two women, Alovisa and Amena, who are both vying for his affection. Through various intrigues and emotional turmoil, the tale explores the complexities of love and the devastation it can bring. The opening of the novel introduces the backdrop of a post-war society where Count D’Elmont returns to Paris, celebrated for his valor. Alovisa, a noblewoman with a noble lineage and substantial inheritance, is infatuated with him but suffers when he shows indifference toward her, focusing instead on the lovely Amena. The narrative captures Alovisa’s inner conflicts, her scheming to win D’Elmont’s heart, and Amena's struggles with her emotions. This emotionally charged beginning sets the stage for a drama filled with jealousy, misunderstandings, and the intense emotions that accompany romantic pursuits, portraying love as both exhilarating and perilous.
